As THE replacement window company for the Minneapolis area, we specialize in energy-efficient windows. Of course, when people hear the term ‘energy efficient,’ most likely they think of heating and cooling. But did you know there’s a third energy savings you may not be considering? That’s right. Today’s modern replacement windows can help you cut your electric bill by reducing the need for having lights on during the day.
Whether you’re spending lots of time at home in daylight hours or are just there occasionally, choosing the right replacement windows could substantially reduce the need to have lights turned on when you need illumination. Sunlight has plenty of health benefits – physical, mental, and emotional – that artificial lighting doesn’t.

The two main categories of windows that can let in lots of sunlight in comparison to similar windows are window style and frame material.
There are other things you can do with windows (as well as doors) that can ramp up the amount of sunlight streaming into your home during the day. Watch our blog for our upcoming posts in using multiple window styles together to create a ‘wall of glass’ as well as combining windows with doors.
