Best Home Improvements for Beauty and Energy Efficiency

In home improvement, accomplishing both beauty and energy efficiency with one project is hard. As much as you want to improve the look of your space inside, prioritizing exterior renovations is more practical in many ways.

If you ask Dreamstyle Remodeling, here are the home improvement projects you should focus on for better curb appeal and energy performance:

Entry Door Replacement

For a front door that looks dated and has a low-tech weatherstripping system, replace it with a better one. After all, the entryway is the star of home exterior design. The color, shape, and overall configuration of your door will contribute to the appeal of your home from the street. It will help you make a great, first impression and show the world an extension of your personality.

From an energy efficiency standpoint, high-quality entry doors with a thick, solid frame are excellent insulators. Equipped with advanced weatherstripping, they prevent air leakage and reduce heat loss night and day. Glazed or opaque, ProVia®’s fiberglass and steel entry door systems offer the best combination of details to roll beauty and energy efficiency into one.

High-Performance Window Upgrade

High-performance windows are the building blocks of a complete thermal enclosure system. Many technologies promise to block solar heat and minimize heat transfer, but none does it better than spectrally-selective Low-E coating. Its custom-built windows have exceptional energy performance ratings because of its advanced glazing. Plus, window replacement is one of the few projects that can give your home a stunning makeover inside and out overnight.

Patio Cover Installation

To help your replacement windows and exterior doors perform more efficiently, place patio covers in strategic locations. Be it a solid structure or a lattice, it will block a large portion of sunlight. By allowing just a little amount of solar heat to reach your indoors, your windows and doors can keep your home cool and comfortable. Customizable to the tiniest detail, a patio cover is a stylish way to lend your home a protective layer against the sun.
