Whether your home’s windows are drafty, cracked, rotted, or just overall extremely outdated, it’s time for an upgrade. While you know that you don’t want to have the same windows installed, you may otherwise be unsure what to seek out in the replacements that you ultimately choose. To point you in the right direction, here’s a guide of what you should look for when buying new windows:

Durable Frames

If you currently have wooden windows adorning your home, they are most likely showing signs of their age. Despite have such a warm and timeless appearance, wood windows ultimately fail, so you’ll want to choose a frame material that resists this kind of deterioration. Both vinyl and aluminum are strong, durable options that will withstand years of outdoor exposure.

Multiple Panes of Glass

If you currently feel heavy drafts coming from your windows, the glass may be to blame. One single pane of glass can’t protect and insulate your home as well as multiple panes. Seek out windows with at least two panes of high-performance glass—and as a bonus, make sure they have some sort of air or gas fill.

Customizable Components

Why outfit your home with windows that you don’t love? If you have a specific vision for your replacement windows, it will be hard to find the right products on a store shelf. Seek out a company that offers windows that you can customize in terms of style, frame color, hardware finish, and other decorative components.
