DOE refits ranch home with energy-efficient windows

Aug. 11, 2010

The ReVISION Vegas home, a Department of Energy project that features a full-scale energy retrofit of a 1963 ranch home, will help cut energy bills by at least 60%. Milgard's triple pane, low-e, fiberglass-framed and argon-filled windows aid the cause with a U factor of 0.22 and an SHGC rating of 0.19.
