Picture this—a lazy afternoon spent in the comfort of your home. In your line of sight, the gorgeous waterfront, iconic bridges, and hilly landscapes San Francisco is famous for. What better way to capture these views than with equally stunning windows?
This year, when you plan your window replacement project, consider installing picture units. Here’s why they’re your best choice for replacement windows in San Francisco:
Framing the Views
Picture windows feature wide glass areas that capture expansive outdoors views. Built right, they can even pass as art on your walls. Renewal by Andersen® picture windows, for example, are so well-crafted they can be considered works of art by themselves. The narrow frames—made with revolutionary composite Fibrex®—come in an array of colors and finishes you can use to complement your home.
You can have picture windows made in custom heights and widths. Use long, rectangular units to frame waterfront or landscape views. Or, if you live in an urban area, choose to install tall, narrow, floor-to-ceiling picture windows to capture skyscrapers, cityscapes, and other modern views.
Capturing Natural Light
Aside from perfectly framing San Francisco scenery, picture windows also allow you to make good use of the abundant sunshine we have in the Bay Area. As these units feature more glass, they can let in a greater amount of sunlight into your home. That can translate to significant energy savings down the line.
A caveat: for all their beauty and energy-saving benefits, not all picture units are not made the same. You have to make sure they’re built using the right materials—high-quality glass, in particular.
High-Performance™ glass makes Renewal by Andersen picture windows so special. Our glass options are covered with low-emissivity coatings that reduce solar heat transfer and protect your home from the sun’s harmful rays. They’re incredibly energy-efficient: for example, Low-E4® SmartSun™ glass, the most efficient option we have on our roster, performs 70% better than standard double-pane glass in keeping your bills low in the summer. It also blocks up to 97% of damaging UV rays that fade your interiors.
With highly efficient glass, you have no worries about letting optimal amounts of sunlight into your home. You can even transform your interiors into a haven of perfectly framed views when you pick the right color frame for your picture windows.
