Windows Energy Efficiency Forming part of the facade of our homes, the thermal insulation of the windows is a fundamental aspect for the energy efficiency of a home that must be consistent with the thermal insulation of the structure. There is a wide range of windows on the market, which differ by the type and quality of their glass, as well as by the existing enclosure (its frame). It should be noted that an efficient window must not only have adequate glass, but must also be properly integrated into the enclosure , that is, that it provides the same level of insulation and that the entire structure is effectively mounted on the façade without that there are thermal bridges, which would cause uncontrolled heat losses to the outside. When selecting a sale, several aspects must be taken into account: a) Desired thermal insulation: we can know its thermal properties with the help of the energy label of windows. b) Desired acoustic insulation. c) Resistance: Depending on the u
