How Do Double-Pane Windows Keep a House Insulated?

You've probably heard about double-pane windows and how they provide more insulation for homes as compared to single-pane windows, but you might not fully understand how. Well, double-pane windows, as the name suggests, are constructed with two parallel panes of glass held inside the window frame. These panes of glass are spaced apart so that a pocket of air is created between them. This pocket of air is what hinders heat transfer through the window, which helps to keep your home insulated. Additionally, the pocket of air can be filled with Argon or Krypton gas, which will hinder heat transfer further.
