The Polywood Shutter Insulation System 

Shutters are the most energy-efficient window treatment. And our Polywood shutters, with their exceptional insulation system, are the best energy saving shutters in Charlotte – if not America.
 
We take care to craft every part of our Polywood Shutters, keeping energy efficiency in mind to give you the most energy savings. The specialty solid polymer material Polywood is made from can block airflow because of its density. This makes 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 effectively limits heat transfer around the panels in both the hot summer and the cold winter in Charlotte. Top that off with a heat-reflective paint, and you get a shutter that is not only stunning but also exceptionally energy efficient. As a matter of fact, Polywood shutters insulate up to 70% better than a comparable 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 intensely.
 
Here’s how Polywood provides you with more energy savings than any other shutter:
  • Blocks Air Flow. Polywood’s thermal protection blocks as much as 30 degrees of airflow that passes through a window.

  • Maximizes R-Value. Polywood has an R-Value of over 6 in a double-pane window. That’s the highest thermal resistance rating of insulation material of any shutter you can find.

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

  • Increases 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 humidity and moisture that can impact the temperature of a room.
