In certain example embodiments of this invention, a window unit may include a vacuum IG (VIG) unit as an inboard lite and a monolithic lite (e.g., with an optional low-E coating thereon) as an outboard lite. A dead air space may separate the inboard and outboard lites. A highly insulated frame may be used to support the inner and outer lites. The VIG unit may be partially embedded or supported in the insulative frame, so that the insulating frame separates the VIG unit inboard lite from the outboard lite thereby reducing conductivity around the edges of the window unit so that R-value can be increased (and U-value decreased). In certain example embodiments, the total R-value of the window unit is at least about R-8, and more preferably at least about R-10 (compared to the much lower R-values of conventional IG units).

The structures and preparations of high R-value, low-cost, light-weight, durable, removable, and transparent window insulation panels are disclosed. The panels are made of spaced and parallel double or multiple layers of transparent plastic sheets, air-tightly mounted on to a frame of plastic, wood, aluminum or other materials. The frame of the panels has seals on the sides for air-tight fitting into the interior structure of the windows, and has different shapes, colors and styles, if necessary, to match the design of the windows. The panels can also be designed to fit into the interior structure of glass doors to provide supplementary insulations. The panels can increase the R-value of double pane windows or glass doors from current about 3 to up to 8 or more, dramatically reducing energy losses.
