Unlike updating your business’s
computer software, updating the physical windows of your business doesn’t have
to be a hassle and can instead transform your work environment for employees
and customers, and make an impact on your bottom line.
You don’t have to gut and renovate your
business to give it a fresh look. A striking storefront glass or commercial window
installation with a clean, modern
design can elevate the experience of your space. With updated windows, you can
demonstrate your solicitude of your customers’ and employees’ comfort and their
desire to spend time in a beautiful community. There are several unique
applications of glass and design in commercial windows that you may want to
consider when updating the look of your business, and keep in mind that there
are a multitude of custom options. Some glass companies may also have a
portfolio of their previous custom work that can lend you ideas and inspiration.
Updating for efficiency
Updating the windows in your business
for improved building performance and tenant experience is often a parallel
outcome of updates done for aesthetic reasons. When replacing or restoring
older or inefficient windows, you are likely to see an immediate return on
investment with your next utility bill. Some businesses, however, may only want
to focus on the cost and energy savings of
new windows and can overlook
elements that could also improve the design.
With most old windows, you will find thinner glass that has likely discolored over time, with deteriorating frames or crumbling putty where the glass is mounted. The result of these outdated materials and the wear and tear of age are diminished insulating properties and reduce natural light. When you update your windows, you can benefit from thick or insulated glass that decreases heat transfer and your HVAC costs, as well as the unfiltered natural light that pours through a new, unblemished pane of glass and can take a bite out of your electricity bill. Even if your windows are relatively newer, you can consider updating picture windows or windows that don’t open with commercial casement windows, which allow employees to crank them open and enjoy the breeze, and seal completely when they are closed.
