Your home gives you signs when something’s not right. Windows are particularly communicative. High-quality, well-maintained windows can last for 20 years or more. There are many factors at play, though. Listen to what they’re telling you, so you’ll know when they need replacement.
Here are the five signs you need to look out for:
1. You Want to Reduce Your Energy Bill
Windows provide some heat in the winter by allowing sunlight into your home. But drafty windows can increase your energy bills. Replace your windows with energy-efficient ones to reduce your heating and cooling bills. Old windows can either block the sun, or invite unwanted heat. Neither would meet the ENERGY STAR® energy efficiency goals. Renewal by Andersen® windows provide excellent UV defense.
2. They’re Damaged, Warped or Broken
If your window only needs new weatherstripping or hardware, a repair might be the best option. But replacing a damaged, warped or broken window sash or frame is almost always necessary. Even if the windows are still operable, they can develop problems. Without addressing these imperfections soon, your current windows might fall into complete disrepair. Before you know it, they have already compromised your home’s weather resistance.
3. Your Home Needs a Makeover
Windows are one of the most prominent features of a home. If they look worn, your house will too. Is the color fading or the material warping? Do old screens or storm windows detract from your home’s curb appeal? To upgrade your home’s appearance, change your fixed sash to a window that opens. It will improve airflow through your home. Larger windows increase a room’s natural light. It will also provide aesthetic and health benefits.
