Are your windows already past their prime? Or have they sustained damage beyond repair? Replacing them with more energy-efficient units can significantly cut your utility costs while improving your home’s function and safety. With the right design combinations, they can also transform its look and feel.
With an array of options available, however, choosing the right one for your home may seem daunting. To help you make sound decisions, here are five important considerations from Renewal by Andersen® of Wyoming, your trusted window contractor:
-
Desired Style. There are some window styles that work best in particular architectural styles. Double-hung windows, for instance, complement traditional homes, while sliding windows blend with modern homes. For the best visual impact, choose the right finish, placement, and grille patterns that match your home’s decor.
-
Durability. The weathertightness of your window will greatly depend on your choice of framing material. It’s important to select the one that doesn’t warp, rot, or corrode. At Renewal by Andersen, our replacement windows feature the exclusive Fibrex® frame. It combines the strength of wood and minimal upkeep of vinyl. It can stand up to severe conditions and still remain in top condition for a long time.
-
Maintenance Requirements. Maintaining your replacement windows shouldn’t be an issue. Check if they come with top-quality components to ensure that they will maintain their smooth operation through the years.
-
Sustainability. Smart use of materials on your windows can help minimize your impact on the environment. Look for units that are recyclable and have a long service life like those from Renewal by Andersen.
-
Local Climate. Not all energy-efficient windows are created equal. They come with different energy performance ratings that meet the demands of your local climate. That said, be sure to review their U-factor and Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC). You can count on us to choose the right specifications for your needs.
