Dead air space is a term describing the unventilated air space between structural elements. The space is used for thermal and sound insulation. It is the same principle as in a thermos bottle. The unventilated air space separates the temperature of the liquid inside the Thermos from the surrounding temperature outside. This is what keeps your coffee hot through out the day! The same principle can be applied to your windows believe it or not. This concept maybe new to many, but it is a valuable addition to your existing windows. Everyday your hard earned dollars are literally flying out of your window without your knowledge.
Imagine you can keep the temperature within your house at a comfortable level all year round without overheating or cooling. Using a flexible optical grade acrylic from Super Saver Windows you can magnetically seal your windows to form a dead air space between the glass and acrylic panel. This will keep the hot or cool air from escaping and reduce your monthly energy bill. There are other benefits to this dead air space concept as well. Ever wondered how to reduce the outside noise from entering your house? Well, you guessed it, dead air space will also reduce noise level to as much as an impressive 90% noise reduction.
So if you are keen on keeping your energy cost down and you have done everything by the book, maybe it's time for you to insulate your windows to further reduce any unnecessary energy spending.
