Polywood Shutters Are Still The Best Window Treatment For Energy Efficiency

Polywood shutters were manufactured as an insulating system and are the top energy-efficient window treatments in Cincinnati. Different from every other plantation shutter, Polywood shutters come with patented weatherstripping to block outside temperatures that could otherwise come through your windows. Polywood’s specially formulated outer coating, construction density, and other features also play a role in these shutters being the most energy-efficient window treatments you can order.

Polywood thermal testing showing superior energy efficiency

Independent testing concludes that Polywood shutters obstruct up to 30 degrees of airflow coming through a window and have a 45.96% reduction in heat transfer. They also have been proven to be up to 70% more energy-efficient than wood plantation shutters and 1600% more energy-efficient than standard aluminum blinds. This sort of insulation translates into sizable energy savings!
