For any school, keeping the operating budget as low as possible is a high-priority task, but for schools in Fort Collins, it’s even more important. With the intense summer heat and bitterly cold winter weather, energy costs skyrocket almost overnight. Though insulating your building will make a huge difference in energy costs, insulating your windows can be just as important. Here’s how energy efficient window film can help Fort Collins schools save on energy costs no matter the season.

Energy Efficient Window Film Keeps the Weather Outside

Windows let in a lot of light, but they also let the temperatures outside the building slip into your space. Believe it or not, heat and air conditioning escapes through the glass unless it’s insulated with curtains or protective window film.

When you install energy efficient window film, it acts like a barrier between the weather outside and your windows. It keeps the heat inside in the winter and the warmth out during the summer. This can help lower your heating and cooling costs significantly.

Reduces Wear and Tear

Energy efficient window film also reduces the risk of wear and tear on your furniture, carpets, and flooring. It blocks damaging UV light without decreasing the amount of ambient light you get from your windows. This can save you money on routine maintenance for the building itself.

But that’s not all. Since the film keeps outdoor temperatures from changing the interior significantly, it helps keep your HVAC system in good condition and reduces the likelihood of unexpected repairs and premature breakdowns. The less your heat and air conditioning system has to work, the less wear and tear the components see.

Less wear and tear means less damage to the system overall, reducing your maintenance costs for years to come. It can even extend the life of your system, letting your Fort Collins school focus the budget on other more student-centric efforts and improvements.
