Choosing Best Windows for Your Home

SPONSORED – While the type of window matters, the most important factor in getting lasting and efficient windows for your home is actually the installation. Poorly installed windows and doors will lead to a host of problems for your home that may include water damage, drafts, heat loss, and other issues. Finding a window installation company near you that properly installs windows is more important than finding the best window because a window is only as good as its installation!

Having windows that will perform well for years is essential to a lifetime of enjoyment in our harsh climate. Here are four reasons to have windows that are installed correctly:

1. Improved energy efficiency, saving you money on heating and cooling costs.
2. Protection from water intrusion, critical for the rainy climate.
3. Eliminating drafts around windows.
4. Reduces sound control, keeping more outside noise to a minimum.

You’ll see the impact of rising energy prices in your monthly electric and gas bills in the coming months. Old windows and doors can be responsible for up to 25% or more of your heating and cooling bill. Coupled with the fact that installing new windows can return up to 85% of your investment makes the decision an easy one to have done sooner than later.
