There are tons of window options out there available for homeowners. It can be confusing for homeowners if you don’t have much information. There are different materials and styles to choose from, including wood, vinyl, fiberglass, and more. We wrote this blog to talk about vinyl replacement windows and how they compare to other replacement window options.
Energy Efficiency
Today more than ever, energy-efficiency is important to homeowners. Whether you want to save money or the planet, new windows can help both causes. Heating and cooling are lost through your home’s windows during all four seasons. Vinyl are some of the most energy-efficient replacement options because of their PVC construction. Wood and fiberglass window options don’t keep as tight a seal as vinyl can. The frames of vinyl windows are insulated to provide maximum energy-efficiency. There’s also the added benefit of soundproofing with vinyl’s airtight seal, keeping outdoor noise outdoors. Your home will feel more comfortable with improved insulation, and you’ll be happy to receive lower energy bills in the mail every month.
Low Maintenance
Perhaps one of the biggest benefits of vinyl replacement windows is their low maintenance. They don’t require painting, and repainting like wood replacement windows can. They don’t fade over time or become warped due to the elements. Just a simple wipe down with a rag will help keep vinyl replacement windows looking brand new. You won’t need to worry about scratches or scrapes either. Vinyl windows are designed to be tough and be able to handle the elements and beyond.
So Many Styles
Being one of the most popular replacement window options in the country, vinyl windows come in many different styles including, bay, bow, casement, sliding & more. They can be custom made fairly easily, making them an option for virtually every home. You can also find vinyl replacement windows in different colors to help accent your home and let your personality show through. If you do choose a color, vinyl windows are UV-protected to help make sure that your windows look as beautiful as they did on the day they were installed.
Affordable
In addition to their durability, one of the reasons that vinyl replacement windows are popular is because of their value. No matter your budget, there’s a replacement vinyl window option that fits it. They don’t sacrifice on quality to be affordable for homeowners, though; vinyl replacement windows can last over 20 years with little maintenance.
