To help you get started Broadview Windows has outlined the essential information you need to know about replacement windows.

1. How a window operates is important.

You certainly can replace your current window with the exact same window style, but is that what’s best for you? Would you prefer a window that’s easier to open? Or perhaps you want to add space to your home? This is a question you need to ask yourself and thoroughly research.

2. You don’t have to replace all of your windows at once.

Replacement windows are a big purchase, but that purchase can be broken up into multiple projects. Think about replacing only half of the windows on your house at a time.

4. Know what the numbers mean.

A window’s energy efficiency is based on a few different numbers: U-factor, Solar Heat Gain Co-efficient (SHGC), Visible Transmittance, and Air Leakage. It’s important to know what these mean because you’ll want different numbers based on where you live. Do you have cold winters? Then you’ll want a lower U-factor, which means your window is helping trap heat inside your home. However, if your weather is sunny and warm year round, a lower SHGC will be more important to you. The lower an SHGC the more sun is blocked and reflected off your window helping keep your home cooler. You can read more here and See how much you can save with new replacement windows.

5. Windows can reflect your style.

Yes, windows are made to fill a hole in a wall. But that doesn’t mean they can’t have personality. Vinyl replacement windows are completely customizable and can be outfitted in a variety of colors, grids and hardware options to suit your style.

6. Custom windows take time.

Size, style features, and types of glass, all factor into your windows’ manufacturing time. You can expect around 4-6 weeks for your windows to be produced and shipped to you.
