Did you know energy costs typically account for 30% of total operating costs?

As a building owner, manager, or engineer, you’re always looking for ways to reduce your operating expenses. Energy costs typically account for 30% of total operating costs and are usually the largest single expense. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that one-third of a building’s cooling load is from solar heat gain through windows, and nearly 75% of existing windows are not energy efficient. Energy saving window film can boost the performance of nearly any glazing system, significantly reducing energy consumption and peak demand.
