Vinyl windows not so different
from energy efficient windows

When choosing the best replacement windows for my home, I
found that quite often vinyl windows and energy efficient windows were the same
thing. This helped to reduce some of the confusion I was feeling. I started my
research thinking that they were two different types of windows. Many
installers in the Greensboro area recommended energy efficient vinyl windows as
replacement windows for older, drafty windows.
Some of the benefits of the energy efficient vinyl windows
are:
·
Tilting frame for easy cleaning
·
Made of energy star materials
·
Reduce energy bills for the life of the window
·
Custom built to fit the window opening
·
Reduce noise from outside
·
Come with warranty
·
Increase the value of the home
One of the reasons I chose to pursue replacement windows for
my home was the drafts that came in around the frames during the winter months.
Vinyl windows that were also energy efficient sounded like a great idea for a
replacement window. They would not only cut down on my heating bills during the
winter months and make my home more comfortable, they would also improve the
overall value of my home. I talked to several of the window installers in the
Greensboro, NC area, including Triad Installations. After talking to the
installers that work with these windows all the time the decision was much
easier. There was really no comparison between windows that were not energy
star approved.
Choosing the best replacement windows for my home turned out
to easier than I had thought. I had already decided that the windows needed to
be replaced. There was no benefit to replacing the windows with a less energy
efficient window.
