Window-Replacement
Window replacement comes with tremendous benefits.

Old windows can be your home’s Achilles heel. They are the most easily penetrable part of your home for intruders and weather, and they are a big source of money loss. If you’re struggling to bite the bullet on window replacement, consider this: the minimum return on investment you will see is 70 percent. Other figures suggest that your ROI could be as high as 125 percent. Even better, newer models of windows are very energy efficient and can save you precious dollars on your energy bill each month. So how do you know if your windows are good candidates for window replacement? These tips will steer you in the right direction.

Single Pane Windows

One of the major ways that you hemorrhage money each month is through single pane windows. These are by far the least energy efficient windows on the market, and do very little to keep the climate outdoors separate from the climate indoors. Your home will have to combat heat and cold as if your windows weren’t even there. New options tend to be double pane, and even that small adjustment can add precious dollars and cents to your bank account.

Difficulty Operating

Windows that were designed in decades past simply aren’t as streamlined as today’s models. Over time it can become quite difficult to operate them. In some cases, you may completely loose the ability to open or close them at all. This isn’t just an annoyance, it’s a security issue. You need to be able to open and close windows as you please, and you need to have windows that lock properly. If these are major issues for you, consider replacement.

Leaky Windows

Inefficiency isn’t just reflected on your energy bill, it’s reflected on your home. When your windows lose their seals and stop keeping the outside, outside, you may end up with water damage, breezes, and even mold. Check your double and triple pane windows for signs of condensation. This is a good indicator that somewhere, your windows are failing. Windows don’t just leak water, they leak sound. If you find yourself lying awake at night because your windows don’t keep the loud sounds of the busy streets at bay, you can be sure that a window replacement is something to consider.

Fading Furniture

Untreated windows don’t offer your home and belongings much protection from the sun’s harmful rays. Over time, the constant exposure to sunlight may start to cause your rugs, couches, drapes, and even photos to fade. Not only is this unsightly, but it can be quite costly to have to constantly worry about replacing your fabrics.

Contact your window replacement professionals

There are many options on the market, but they are not all created equally. Take the time to make sure you are getting the most out of your investment. Cheaper is not always the best choice when it comes to replacing your windows. You need windows that won’t just get you through the summer, but ones that will perform at top quality for decades. Even the best windows are useless if they aren’t properly installed. Contact the trusted professionals at Absolute Home Solutions for your window installation.
