Happy Homeowner #1: Ray T. Loved Our Installation & Attention to Detail

 

 

Coastal Windows & Exteriors only sends the top window contractors to New England homes. Quality and craftsmanship counts, and homeowners can expect the following from professionally installed replacement windows:

  • No signs of gapping between the sill and the window frame, or the sill and the wall. Gapping around the frames leads to major drafts, which is one of the number one reasons why homeowners replace their windows.
  • Increased indoor comfort. By reducing drafts and moisture, the home remains cool in the winter and warm in the summer—offering a comfortable retreat no matter what time of year.
  • Fog-free glass. While it’s possible to get some condensation after your windows are replaced, the problem arises when the condensation does not go away. This is a sign of seal failure or incorrect installation. When the window glass is nice and clear (other than times when it’s humid outside or in your home), it’s a sign that your windows are properly installed.

Professional window installation is vital to the performance of your new windows. According to the US Department of Energy, air infiltration can pull humid outdoor air into the home during the summer. In the winter, it can force warm air to move into cold air cavities. Our windows only allow .01 CFM of air leakage per minute through the window, which is the equivalent to a little over ½ can of soda. The competition’s windows such as Pella and Andersen allow .12 to .30 CFM—which is 24 soda cans of air per minute.

Happy Homeowner #2: Janet B. is Saving Energy with Her New Replacement Windows

 

In a climate like New England, homeowners depend on energy efficient windows to lower energy bills—especially during the hottest and coldest times of the year.

With window installation in MA, homeowners can experience a savings of over $400 per year. New England is the most prominent area in the country for dramatic energy savings with new window replacement. The best energy savings are found with windows that are certified by Energy Star such as ours high-quality replacement windows: see more here.

Look for the following window characteristics for best energy savings:

  • Low-e glazing reduces harmful UV rays from entering into the home. During the summer, the rays are reflected so they cannot pass through the glass and heat the home up like an oven. During the winter, it reflects the inside radiant heat back into the home. Also known as Smart Glass- a feature we offer on our windows.
  • Quality insulated vinyl frames further enhance the window’s thermal efficiency. The frames also block out moisture to prevent mold and mildew formation.
  • Double or triple pane glass have energy efficient argon or krypton gases which act as thermal insulators that keep the home warm in the winter and cool in the summer as they are denser than oxygen aka single pane glass. Triple pane is the top choice for reducing outdoor noise and they’re great for homes on busy streets.
  • Precision-engineered weatherstripping prevents drafts in addition to professional window installation.
  • Save hundreds of dollars on energy bills. Old and drafty windows can account to 25% of the home’s energy loss.
