Window Style Series 3 Ways Picture Units Improve Your Home

Have you ever been inside a home that’s practically picture-perfect? We bet you want to know what the secret is. Three things can make your interiors more aesthetically pleasing: drama, lighting, and views. Installing a picture unit can help with all three.

Lighting

Homeowners often look for ways to cut back on energy expenses. It’s a concern your experts in window replacement in Toms River understand so well. What we typically suggest is putting more emphasis on natural lighting. A strategically placed picture window can let in all the sunshine you’ll need during the day. Installed singly or in groups, it can give your rooms a fresher, brighter look.

Pick the glass package on your picture unit wisely, though. Renewal by Andersen® offers High-Performance™ Low-E4® Sun™ glass on picture windows. Aside from reducing heat transfer, this superb glass package also features a tint coating that controls the amount of light it lets through. You can avoid getting uncomfortable glare from the sun.

Views

Do you like hanging photos on your walls? Well-placed picture windows can have a similar aesthetic effect. They’re designed to frame outdoor scenery nicely, whether it’s a modern cityscape, an interesting land formation, or your own backyard.

These windows can look as stunning as artwork if you pick the right framing material. Renewal by Andersen uses Fibrex®, a high-quality composite. It comes in long-lasting vibrant colors that look good with any interior and exterior color scheme. Fibrex is so durable and stable that we can even use it to create units with narrower frames and bigger glass areas for better, more expansive views.

Drama

Finally, picture windows can give your interiors more personality. You can benefit from the sheer number of designs you can create with them. For example, consider installing an oversized picture unit in your living room. A window like this doubles as a glass wall for a dramatic effect.

For a more eye-catching design, you can combine picture units with other window styles. You can have it installed next to a sliding window in Jackson, New Jersey, for instance. This combination is ideal for rooms that need sufficient ventilation—something the picture unit cannot provide on its own.

You may also go for the Chicago style: two double-hung or casement windows flanking a picture unit. This combination is a classic and can be used in many areas of the home, such as living rooms, bedrooms, and seating nooks.

It’s no secret that the best way to get great picture window installation is by letting the professionals at Renewal by Andersen of New Jersey-New York Metro handle the job. To experience the Renewal Difference yourself, call us at (866) 609-5033 today.
