Window Energy ROI Calculator
Help homeowners justify the cost of premium window upgrades by calculating long-term energy savings and payback periods.
How to Sell on ROI
Windows are expensive. When a homeowner sees a $15,000 quote to replace the windows on their house, they often experience sticker shock. The best way to overcome this price objection is to shift the conversation from an expense to an investment.
According to the Department of Energy, heat gain and heat loss through windows are responsible for 25%–30% of residential heating and cooling energy use.
The Double-ROI Pitch
- Energy ROI: By upgrading to Energy Star rated Double-Pane Low-E windows, homeowners immediately stop throwing money out the window via drafts. Show them the 10-Year Savings number.
- Equity ROI: Remodeling Magazine's Cost vs Value report consistently shows that high-end window replacements recoup 65% to 70% of their cost in home equity at resale.
Pro Tip: When you combine the energy savings with the home equity bump, premium windows often pay for themselves entirely within the first few years of ownership.
