Ten Reasons to Consider Replacement Windows

Windows aren’t something you think about on a daily basis, but when you live in San Diego, CA, you want your windows to operate as efficiently as possible. No one wants to consider replacement windows, but there comes a time when most homes will need them. Here are just ten reasons to consider replacement windows for your house.

1. Save Money on Energy Bills

Replacement windows increase your home’s insulation and decrease the amount of air that passes through the window. That will keep your temperature controlled air in and the outside air out, all of which results in savings on your energy bill.

2. Increase Home Resale Value

Potential buyers will see the replacement windows on your home as a positive upgrade. They know that means energy savings and they like the overall look of a house that includes new windows. All that means your home will sell for a higher value when you have new replacement windows.

3. Extend the Life of Your HVAC System

Since your windows insulate your home better and prevent air leakage in both directions, your HVAC system won’t have to work as often or as hard. You will be able to extend the life of your heating and air conditioning systems because they will not have to work as hard to keep you comfortable.

4. Decrease Maintenance Needs

Older windows might require painting, scraping, staining, and other maintenance on a regular basis. New vinyl replacement windows are good to go and take very little maintenance as the years go by.

5. Add Aesthetic Appeal Inside and Out

Old, outdated windows can really change the overall appeal of your home both inside and out. When you install high quality replacement windows, your house takes on a new, fresh look.

6. Improve Security

Newer windows have thicker panes of glass and are much harder to break. They also include hardware that has technologically advanced locking mechanisms.  They help to keep your home safer.

7. Cut Down on Noise

It’s okay to hear a little noise from outside, but replacement windows provide improved sound reduction that will help block out the neighbor’s barking dog, the traffic, and other unwanted noises for outside.

8. Easy Operation

High quality replacement windows deliver smooth operation so they will open and close seamlessly.  They won’t stick in any position and will be simple and easy to operate. They also will alleviate any safety hazards by ensuring easy exit in case of emergency.  And, you can enjoy the San Diego breezes on a nice day or shut out the hot sun without a second thought.

9. Easy Cleaning

Vinyl replacement windows don’t take much maintenance, but when you need to clean them, you simply wipe them down with a soft cloth, mild soap and water. It’s fast, simple, and easy.

10. UV Protection

New technology gives you UV protection options with your replacement windows. The glass can protect your furniture, walls and carpeting from fading due to harmful UV rays.
