The Polywood Shutter Insulation System 

Shutters are the top energy-efficient window treatment. And our Polywood shutters, with their progressive insulation system, are the best energy saving shutters in Hartford – if not America.
 
We take care to make every component of our Polywood Shutters, keeping energy efficiency in mind so you can enjoy the energy savings. The specialty solid polymer material Polywood is manufactured from can block airflow because of its thickness. This transforms these shutters into a natural insulator. Polywood shutters block more temperature and light than any other shutter because of their patented weather stripping on the sides of each shutter panel. This dramatically reduces heat transfer around the panels in both the cold of winter and the heat of summer in Hartford. We add in a heat-reflective paint, and you get a shutter that is not only stunning but also remarkably energy efficient. As a matter of fact, Polywood shutters insulate up to 70% better than a similar wood shutter.
 
Shutter Energy Efficiency
 
A third party thermal test (forward looking infrared) showed that the Polywood Shutter Insulating System blocked as much as 30 degrees of temperature coming through the window. This means the HVAC system doesn’t have to work as hard.
 
Here’s how Polywood provides you with more energy savings than any other shutter:
  • Shields Against Air Flow. Polywood’s thermal protection blocks as much as 30 degrees of airflow that goes through a window.

  • Maximizes R-Value. Polywood’s R-Value is over 6 in a double-pane window. That’s the highest thermal resistance rating of insulation material of any shutter in the industry.

  • Reduces Heat Transfer. Polywood leads to a 45.96% reduction in heat transfer.

  • Improves Energy Efficiency. Polywood is up to 70% more energy efficient than wood shutters and up to 1600% more energy efficient than aluminum blinds.

  • Resists Moisture and Humidity. Since Polywood is moisture-proof, it resists moisture and humidity that can influence the temperature of a room.
