The Governments of Ontario and Canada will help pay for the retrofit of your
home needs. You have 18 months from the date of your audit to complete some
or all of these upgrades. You may apply for the rebate only after the work
is done and you have had your post-retrofit audit. For more details......
~On
average, Canadians spend $1,500.00 to $2,000.00 a year to heat their
home. According to SAWDAC, "industry standards indicate that about
26 per cent is due to heat loss through
windows"
(SAWDAC).
~"Canadian
window manufacturers now lead the world in developing new technology.
One example: argon-gas-filled, double-paned glass that provides
remarkable energy efficiency and costs about 20 percent more than
standard windows" (Maclean's).
~Energy
efficient windows are extremely important in Canada given the extremes
of our climate.
~An
energy efficient window guards against heat loss, cold drafts,
and condensation, which effectively reduces HVAC (heating, ventilation
and air-conditioning) costs. Most people give little thought to
the efficiency of their windows, and don't realize the difference
a high quality, well-installed window can make.
~During
the winter, the sun's low elevation in the sky at midday enables
it to shine through south-facing windows (placement). These solar
gains can help reduce your heating costs during the Winter (OEE).
~Energy-efficient
windows are least likely to have condensation. Their resistance
to condensation, however, depends on the indoor humidity level.
A humidity level of more than 40 per cent, when the outside temperature
is -20 C or colder, may cause condensation even on a good performing
window (OEE).
~The
heavy gas fills in high-performance windows, which reduce conductive
and convective heat losses, also reduce sound transmission from
the exterior to the interior. The greater the number of panes,
the better the sound absorption (OEE).
~With
the increasing complexity of window technology, installation is
not something you want to play around with. Unless you are an experienced
carpenter, window and door installation is not a do-it-yourself
project. A crack in a gas-filled window will limit its effectiveness-
and you won't have a warranty if anything goes wrong.

What
our customers are saying
"Your
employee installed a window for us on 22 December. Just in time
for the cold snap. Tuesday night was much colder than it had been
yet we used less wood and the house was warmer in the morning.
Didn't know how much difference an extra pane of glass could make.
Just
wanted to pass on our thanks. A house like this is sold as "custom
built" but, in the case of the windows at least, the installer's
"home made" is much more to the point. He did a great job and
I don't think that was so easy to do - everything looks really good."

Sue, Maberly, Ontario
"We
are extremely pleased with the windows purchased from Lambden Window
& Door Sales Ltd. a little over a year ago. We have noticed a marked
difference in the warmth of the house during the winter months and a
more comfortable level of coolness in the summer. Also, our house is
much quieter inside as the noise from traffic, lawnmowers and snow blowers
outside are being blocked significantly. We believe that we made the
right decision to replace all the windows in our house.
The ice
storm in January 1998 was a true test of the windows as we were able
to keep the temperature of the house above freezing thanks to the
superior quality of the windows. Without windows of this quality,
we would have had to evacuate our house during the power outage."

Beach, North Gower, Ontario
"…….right from the initial estimate measuring to the actual
installation, the whole experience was one of dealing with a company that is,
a Class Act. [the installers] were a welcome addition to my residence refurbishing,
just ask my dog, Kato. After the first day of the installation, Kato would
take his morning treat upstairs, where he would wait for the truck to arrive
below the new upstairs window. It was quite amazing to watch. Once again, thank
you for a great job well done!
