New Windows for the New Year!
No matter how you look at it, purchasing replacement windows for your home is a big decision. Window styles, color options, glass upgrades, window energy efficiency, and of course window prices are just a few of the factors that play into the process. With so many choices, the decision can be overwhelming for many … but ignoring the need for new windows can’t be ignored forever!
Curb Appeal
There are more than a few good reasons to upgrade your windows, not the least of which include improved aesthetics. Compared to weathered windows, new fiberglass replacement windows will make a big impact both inside and out.

Improved Performance
In addition to the dramatic improvement new windows can make to your home’s exterior, there are many other long-term benefits that come with replacing windows … particularly when upgrading from wood or vinyl windows to fiberglass. To start, most window manufacturers like Marvin Windows & Doors use new technologies that allow for better U-values, Solar Heat Gain Coefficients (SHGC), and reduced air infiltration.
When combined with better seals and enhanced UV protection, these features play a considerable role in increasing comfort and reducing home energy bills.
Depending on the specific window options you choose, replacement windows can also offer improved window security and noise reduction. And aside from a simple wash now and again, they’re virtually maintenance free! These and other window performance factors should be considered when evaluating the long-term benefit of a window investment.
Instead of ignoring your old drafty windows this winter, why not consider a home improvement project that actually generates a positive return? Considering all that new residential windows have to offer — long-term savings, improved curb appeal, and peace of mind — they may just be the next practical purchase on your list!
