Are your home’s aging windows showing signs of wear? Not sure if they should be replaced? Here are a few warning signs to look out for:
Windows are responsible for 25% to 30% of a home’s heating and cooling use, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. If you are replacing single-pane windows with new double-pane vinyl windows, you could save from $100 to $500 per year. Even replacing old-style double-pane windows with new ones can save you at least $100.
Cleaning and maintaining windows can range from labor-intensive to just plain awkward depending on their location. Thankfully, you can solve some of those problems by updating them.
Vinyl replacement windows require practically no maintenance, especially in comparison to wooden windows and storm windows which require the most. In addition to taking the storm window on and off each year and storing them in the off-season, you must scrape and paint both them and the primary windows every few years.
Even aluminum windows require special cleaning and maintenance because they tend to corrode during the winter months.
Wanting to freshen up the look of your house? New vinyl windows definitely enhance the appearance of your home. They never corrode or require painting or staining and come in a variety of styles to make your home look its best.
Because of all their benefits — and curb appeal — new windows also add to your home’s value. According to Angie’s List recommended remodeling projects, you can expect at least a 70% return on investment with new replacement windows. This is on top of the energy saving you experience while you are living there. In some cases, newer windows are also safer for families with children, which adds extra motivation for potential buyers.
Window replacement ranks higher in return value than other traditional home improvement projects including major kitchen remodel (52% return), siding replacement (51% return), roof replacement (50% return), or a master suite addition (40% return).
The windows that are the best for the hot humid Florida weather might not be the best for the frigid temperatures of Alaska.
