Keystone House Uses Power*e™ Glass as its Primary Heat
This 2800 square foot Keystone House is located near the Keystone Ski Resort at almost 11,000 feet in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. With long winters and cold summer nights, this climate offers an impressive real-world demonstration of the efficient and cost-effective heating capabilities of Power*e™ Glass windows.
In the Keystone House, a total of 327 square feet of Power*e™ Glass was substituted for the low-e glass in 19 of the 35 standard Jeld-Wen™ wood/metal-clad window frames. Generally, the Power*e™ Glass was inserted for the fixed panes in the frames. In the photos, the Power*e™ Glass is clear while the original glass is streaked (pending cleaning).
The home owner is thrilled because the Power*e™ Glass windows are thoroughly, efficiently and cheaply heating their home. In March, 2009, the average outside temperature was 27ºF. Yet the total electric bill (including taxes and other charges) was $95. The Power*e™ Glass was the sole heat source during this time despite that the house was not yet entirely sealed and construction was ongoing. Although the house has radiant floors and a pellet stove for backup, they have not generally been used and through November and December, 2009 the home owner generally continues to use the Power*e™ Glass as their sole heat source.
