With home improvement projects being costly and time consuming, it’s easy to procrastinate with doing a Window Replacement until completely necessary.
But how do you know when it’s time to finally replace them? Well, we’ve got you covered! We’ve put together a list of situations you’ll find yourself in when it’s time to replace those old, worn-out replacement windows.
High Energy Bill$
Energy bill increased out of nowhere? That’s because your old and inefficient windows have a significant impact on your home's insulation.
The more heat they allow to escape from your home, the more you’ll be using your central heating to compensate, and the same is true of using your air conditioning too.
You can check this by standing next to your replacement windows and seeing if it feels cooler than the rest of the room. If the glass is cold to touch then it's highly likely you're wasting energy.
Another test is to grab a lighter and hold it close to the corners of the glass panes. If the flame twinkles when it’s held to the replacement window, this is another sign of cold air entering your home and wasted energy.
Excessive Condensation
You may notice “sweat” on your replacement window panes on particularly cold days. Condensation can mean that your replacement windows' glazing is losing its effectiveness. Due to failing seals, it’s easy for moisture to find its way between the glass panes, forming condensation.
To prevent this type of issue, The Window Guyz recommend you invest in our new energy-efficient replacement windows, which meet all Energy Star requirements and are structurally strong with long-term performance.
Do you hear every car horn, dog bark, and traffic noise from inside your home? Excessive noise is sign your replacement windows are not providing enough insulation.
In contrast, our new replacement windows are actually engineered to reduce sound transfer, resulting in a quieter, more relaxing living space.
Annoying Indoor Drafts
If you feel a draft when you’re close to your replacement windows, this is an indicator that their seals are damaged and it’s time to invest in replacement windows.
Damaged seals compromise your home’s thermal stability, putting extra load on your HVAC system and leading to higher energy bills.
Windows Not Opening or Closing Easily
Replacement windows that were not installed correctly tend to develop balance issues, making the windows challenging to open and close. Replacement windows that are rusting or rotting can also be difficult to use.
If your replacement windows do not close properly, you may not be able to lock them, which will impact the safety of your home. It's time for a Window Replacement.
Replacement windows should last a lifetime, so make sure to choose a company based on the quality of their products, not just the sticker price.
