Several top companies manufacture quality energy saving windows. For many years the use of storm doors and storm windows has always been good evidence that severe weather is often experienced in the neighborhood, city or town. Throughout most of the Midwest and in the northern portion of the Atlantic coast region the winters are so severe that dwellings could not be kept comfortably warm without the use of storm doors and storm windows, and, moreover, their use conserved fuel consumption. Along the Great Lakes, as well as along the seacoast, storm windows served the additional purpose of resisting destructive winds. In Minnesota and the Dakotas, where temperatures of 20 to 40 degrees below zero occur every winter the need for storm windows was great in order that artificial heat could be retained. With the energy efficient windows of today, homeowners can replace the storm windows of the past, yet still retain the original beauty of the home.
