Why Buy Vinyl
There are many reasons to replace your old, drafty windows with new vinyl ones. Vinyl is affordable, durable, energy efficient, aesthetically appealing, and requires little maintenance.
Energy Efficiency - Vinyl is a great insulator, superior in its resistance to heat transfer. Dual weather-stripping, standard on many vinyl windows, creates a tight seal, maintaining the efficiency of the window and effectively eliminating drafts.
- Glazing options produce a window that will provide year-around comfort and energy savings.
- Dual pane insulated glass, created by sealing two single panes to a spacer, establishing an insulating chamber, is nearly twice as efficient as a single pane of glass at reducing heat loss.
- The transparent metallic coating on optional LoE² (low emissivity) glass filters out solar radiation, thereby reducing heat gain in summer and heat loss in winter, for maximum comfort and energy efficiency.
- Many vinyl windows are also available as ENERGY STAR® qualified to ensure high energy efficiency and savings.
Durability - All of the windows we offer are thoroughly tested for structural and thermal performance, to ensure they hold up under extreme weather conditions. The windows we offer are also tested and certified to meet AAMA standards for forced entry resistance, for your protection.
Convenience – Vinyl windows are low maintenance and are designed to provide a lifetime of enjoyment and easy care.
- Color is consistent throughout the vinyl, making scratches virtually invisible and eliminating the need for painting.
- Tilt-in sashes allow for safe and easy cleaning from within the home with just soap and water, keeping the windows looking like new for years to come.
- A well-designed balance system ensures smooth, easy sash operation that never needs adjusting.
- Sashes open and close effortlessly for as long as you own your home, regardless of the temperature or humidity level outside.
Appearance - Attractive vinyl window options help homes achieve their own unique style.
- Many vinyl windows are available in a choice of white or beige.
- An optional interior oak laminate, available on certain models, provides the warm, rich look of wood, without the maintenance.
- Curbside appeal is enhanced with several appealing exterior frame profiles.
- Optional color-coordinated grilles come in a variety of different styles and patterns and are sealed inside the glass for carefree cleaning.
- Create stunning window combinations with a wide selection of shapes and sizes to match almost any design.
Reliability – Our manufacturers stand behind our windows, backing each one with a Limited Lifetime Warranty. This warranty, which covers the window, the insulated glass, and the window hardware, will bring you peace of mind for as long as you own your home.
