Debunking 3 Myths About Window Replacement

The process of replacing your old windows with new ones seems simple and straightforward. However, there are certain misconceptions that can lead you to wrong decisions. 

To help you make sure you’re doing window replacement the right way, Renewal by Andersen® of Wyoming reveals the truth behind these top three myths about installing new windows.

1. “Summer Is the Best Time for the Job”

Several homeowners think that the sunniest time of the year is their only chance to replace their windows successfully. They believe that if it were done in winter, warm air inside the house will escape, which can lead to discomfort and higher energy bills. 

However, hiring a highly skilled and experienced installer is key to avoiding this issue. This means you don’t have to wait for summer just get new windows. A window expert has the tools and knowledge to complete the job efficiently and effectively. 

2. “Window Replacement Can Damage Your House”

Some people are skeptical to have their windows replaced because they think it will only damage their property. Because of this, they assume that they would need to endure extended days of living without windows while the replacement is ongoing. But the truth is, you don’t have to worry as long as you hire the right window fitter. They know how to get the job done as soon as possible without damaging your house. 

3. “New Windows Don’t Help Save Energy”

Often, homeowners who have resided in the same house for decades don’t believe that windows are crucial to energy efficiency. However, most drafts and wasted energy is caused by gaps, incorrect sizing and installation errors in windows and doors. That said, your choice of window style, materials and installers matter if you want to save energy.
