Things To Consider When Choosing a New Window For Your Home

Getting window replacement for your home is an exciting project that can refresh its look and even improve its energy-efficiency. Before you start shopping for new windows though, there are a few things to keep in mind to ensure that your replacement project is a success. V. Nanfito Roofing and Siding discusses more.

Never Skimp on Safety

Your windows are the weakest entry point in your home, so security should be a priority when you’re choosing new windows. Never skimp on safety just so that you can get attractive-looking home hardware. Make sure that your new windows have securely lock and that the glass they have is strong.

Glass and Solar Reflection

The glass is the main functional part of your window and plays the largest role in keeping too much light from entering your home. Make sure you look carefully at the grade of the glass; the higher the Solar Reflectance Rating, the better it is at protecting your home from harsh UV light. The replacement windows we offer all boast ENERGY STAR®-rated glass that reduces UV light intrusion, keeping your home cool and comfortable this summer.

Window Style and Architecture

Windows today come in a range of designs and styles, but some fit certain homes better than others. The design of bay and bow windows, for example, restricts them to traditional homes. On the other hand, the lack of visible aesthetics to sliding windows make them better suited to contemporary and ultra-modern homes. Casement and double-hung windows are an exception since they fit both architectural styles perfectly well.
