TYPES OF WINDOWS
Double-Pane Window
If energy efficiency is a top priority for your window replacement, consider double-pane windows. These windows are also referred to as double-hung or double-glazed and consist of two panes of glass as opposed to one. This is excellent for reducing heat transfer, which makes these great for insulation. Double-pane windows can be slightly more costly but the added savings on your energy bill are well worth it.
Energy-Efficient Window
The amount of heat gained and lost through windows is often underestimated by homeowners. For instance, studies show that heat loss through windows accounts for 25-30% of a homeowner’s utility costs. By installing cutting-edge, energy-efficient windows, you can save tons on your monthly bills! If your home has some older windows, you’ll be amazed at what a difference you’ll experience with new energy-saving windows.
Basement Window
Although these windows are some of the smallest windows in your home, they’re actually pretty important. Basement windows, especially older ones, tend to be a prime source of air and heat leakage. By upgrading these old windows, you can make huge improvements in your home’s energy efficiency. You might also be surprised to learn that newer basement windows can be very attractive. Don’t settle for ugly basement windows – upgrade today!
Storm Window
Storm windows are a great way to upgrade your windows without having to commit to a full-blown window replacement. Storm windows are essentially a second window added onto your existing windows. This provides you with increased energy-efficiency, sound-dampening properties, and an extra layer of protection in the event of a storm. For homeowners living in stormy areas, these windows are a must-have.
Casement Window
There’s a lot of good reasons to consider casement windows. While many homeowners think of traditional styles like bow and bay windows, casement windows provide some extra benefits. As a single sheet of glass, they’re remarkably easy to clean. They also save you space by opening outwards, which makes them great for compact areas like kitchens. They also provide more ventilation than just about any other type of window!
Double-Hung Windows
While double-hung windows can initially be a bit more expensive than single-hung windows, they’re well-worth it. A big feature of these windows is that each sash can be opened individually. This allows for greater ventilation and also makes them much easier to clean. For second-story windows, this can be a total lifesaver, since you won’t have to hire special companies to do your cleaning.
Custom Window
When you start a window replacement, you’re typically offered standard window sizes and shapes. There’s nothing wrong with standard construction, but there’s something to be said for creating your own design too! Custom windows can be a bit more expensive, depending upon your design, but create a one-of-a-kind atmosphere which is priceless. These designs can also fit into areas where traditional windows might not, so make your home unique with custom windows.
Bow Window
Bow windows are one of the most attractive options available during window replacement. Since they curve outwards away from your home, they can even function as a small home addition. You can add a small loveseat into the area created by your bow window for a lovely seating area. These windows also provide a great amount of light, which can make a huge difference in the overall atmosphere of your home.
Vinyl Window
A newer and more modern option than wood, vinyl windows bring a lot of benefits to your home. For one thing, vinyl windows can easily last around 20 years with little to no maintenance. You don’t have to worry about caring for its paint or preventing moisture damage either. Vinyl is also much more energy-efficient than wooden windows, which can save you a bunch of money on utility bills.
Wooden Window
With all kinds of new options on the market, you might be wondering why you’d go with wood. For starters, wood windows are one of the most insulating options available. Wooden windows insulate better than just about any modern option without the complicated installation you’ll find in modern styles. For the ecologically concerned homeowner, you should know that wooden windows are also the greenest choice on the market.
Awning Window
Typically comprised of a single piece of glass, awning windows are hinged windows which open outward. While casement windows open from the bottom, these open from the top. This is great for providing ventilation even during light rain! As a single piece of glass, these windows are also very easy to clean and provide a great light source. With their handy opening mechanism, awning windows are great in compact areas.
Bay Window
Similar to bow windows, bay windows extend out beyond the perimeter of your home. Unlike bow windows, however, bay windows are comprised of three angled window panes. These windows are often associated with Victorian architecture and can lend a bit of classic flair to any home. You can even use the additional space created by these windows as a minor home addition!
