When should I replace my windows?
You should always replace your windows if they are single pane windows, which is very inefficient. Many windows that were installed in the ’80s and ’90s are old technology and aren’t saving energy like new technology units do.
Signs that you need to replace your windows include feeling cold sitting next to your window, broken seals, or if it is tough to open and close.
What are the best materials for replacement windows?
Vinyl has been the mainstay over the years because of its affordability. Consider the thickness of the vinyl as a gauge of quality. One hundred percent virgin vinyl windows are more energy efficient, drastically lower drafts into the home, are easy to maintain, and last a lifetime. With new machinery and technology, high-end vinyl windows offer stunning looks in wood-grain or painted styles.
