User Data Package - Energy-Efficient Windows and Window Coverings for Naval Housing

Abstract

This User Data Package identifies energy-efficient windows and window coverings for housing applications. Procedures to determine the life cycle cost effectiveness and payback period for energy efficient windows is provided. It is recommended that PVC, double-glazed, low-emissivity coated windows be used for all new housing construction in areas where hearing and/or cooling is required. It is also recommended that energy-efficient windows be used when old windows are replaced in existing housing. Keywords: Energy-efficient windows, Housing(dwelling), Naval personnel.
