Window Performance: Quality Materials
Your windows are one of the most important structural elements of your home. Poorly-constructed or installed windows can cause years of incessant problems with leaks, cracking, energy inefficiency and more. Thus, when choosing a window replacement company, you want to make sure that you choose one that uses only the highest quality materials and installs these materials with the highest attention to detail. As the price of building materials has increased steadily over the past decade, many builders and remodeling companies have chosen to downgrade the quality of the materials that they work with in order to save cost and increase profit margins on new window installations in the Tampa Bay area.
Since 1972 Reece Builders' commitment to the use of only the highest quality window replacement materials has not waivered. Over the last 40 years we have seen many local companies downgrade to lower-quality window replacement materials, but not here. Believe it or not, there is a lot of science behind the construction of your high quality window replacements. The information below explains in detail the advantages to using the high quality materials that we do, including Conservation Windows, SHGC, Neat Glass and much more.

The Conservation Window Line Beats the Heat...and is Bold in the Cold!
When temperatures soar, ordinary window glass just can't handle the heat. Tinted glass spoils the view. Conservation Windows, however, has been specially formulated to reject the sun's heat without affecting the view. It lets more light in and keeps out the heat so your home stays cool and comfortable. Conservation Windows coating provides the ultimate in performance and clarity of all LoE products. It blocks 95% of the sun's damaging ultraviolet rays so it will help your furniture, carpets and curtains to stay beautiful for years to come
During the cold weather, the insulating effect of your windows has a direct impact on how your rooms feel. Typically, 80% of the exposed surface of a window is glass, and the room-side of the glass directly affects the air temperature in the room. The better insulated the window glass, the warmer your room will be.
Performance above the Norm!
Solar Heat Gain Coefficient - (SHGC) The amount of solar radiation that enters a building as heat. The lower the number, the better the window is at reducing heat loss.
U-Factor - This represents the heat flow rate through a window expressed in BTU/hr/ft/F using winter weather conditions of 0° F outside and 70° F inside. The smaller the number, the better the window is at reducing heat.
UV and Fading Transmission - These regions include all of the ultraviolet energy and most of the visible spectrum and will give the best representation of UV protection and relative fading rates. The lower the number, the better the window is for reducing fading potential of carpets and interior furnishings.
Neat Glass - Smooth Glass is Clean Glass
A thin layer of silicon dioxide makes Neat Glass exceptionally smooth and hydrophilic. This allows water to disperse evenly or “sheet off” and evaporate quickly
