Our Window Products

Residential windows are an important part of any home, providing natural light, ventilation, and security. There are many different types of residential windows available, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.

 

Some of the most common types of residential windows include:

 

  • Double-hung windows: These windows have two sashes that slide up and down. They are a good choice for areas where ventilation is important.
  • Single-hung windows: These windows have a movable bottom sash and a fixed top sash. They are less expensive than double-hung windows and still provide good ventilation.
  • Sliding windows: These windows slide open horizontally, allowing for more ventilation than hung windows. They are also a good choice for areas where space is limited.
  • Casement windows: These windows swing outward on hinges, providing maximum ventilation. They are a good choice for difficult-to-reach areas.
  • Bay windows: These windows project from the exterior of the home, creating a bay-shaped alcove. They provide excellent natural light and views.
  • Bow windows: These windows are similar to bay windows, but they curve outward from the exterior of the home. They provide even more natural light and views than bay windows. 

Window materials:

 

  • Vinyl windows: Vinyl windows are affordable, low-maintenance, and energy-efficient. They are a good choice for most homeowners.
  • Wood windows: Wood windows are more expensive than vinyl windows, but they are also more durable and aesthetically pleasing. They can be painted or stained to match the home's exterior.
  • Aluminum windows: Aluminum windows are durable and energy-efficient, but they can be more difficult to insulate than other types of windows. They are a good choice for homes in hot climates.
  • Fiberglass windows: Fiberglass windows are a good combination of durability, energy efficiency, and affordability. They are a good choice for most homeowners. 

Window features:

 

  • Low-E glass: Low-E glass is coated with a thin layer of metal oxide that reflects heat back into the home in the winter and keeps heat out in the summer. This can help to reduce energy costs.
  • Argon gas fill: Argon gas is a good insulator, so filling the space between the panes of glass with argon can further improve energy efficiency.
  • Safety glass: Safety glass is designed to shatter into small pieces instead of large shards in the event of breakage. This can help to prevent injuries.
  • Screens: Screens can help to keep insects out of the home and protect children and pets from falling out of windows.

When choosing residential windows, it is important to consider the following factors:

 

  • Climate: Windows in hot climates need to be energy-efficient and able to block out the sun's heat. Windows in cold climates need to be well-insulated to keep the heat in.
  • Budget: Windows can range in price from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars. It is important to set a budget before you start shopping.
  • Homestyle: Windows should complement the home's overall style. For example, traditional homes typically look best with wood windows, while modern homes often look best with aluminum or fiberglass windows.
  • Maintenance needs: Some types of windows require more maintenance than others. For example, wood windows need to be painted or stained regularly.

 

By carefully considering your needs and budget, you can choose residential windows that will provide you with many years of enjoyment.
