Choosing your new windows is not easy with all the products available on the market today. You want to choose windows that can enhance your home’s beauty and give it protection against harsh outdoor elements. Make sure to invest in high-quality units that are durable, appealing and energy-efficient.

Read on to learn the benefits of selecting name-brand windows over products from lesser-known manufacturers.

NFRC Ratings®

The National Fenestration Rating Council® (NFRC) issues a set of standards under its product certification program. Manufacturers who are NFRC members include an energy performance label on their windows that indicate ratings for solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC), U-factor, visible transmittance and air leakage. By selecting windows and doors from an NFRC member, you can ensure you’re investing in quality that other companies may not possess.

Excellent Products and Customer Service

Established window companies remain in business because they are honest with their clients. They have been consistently providing quality products and services for years or decades. These industry leaders back their services and products with comprehensive warranties, giving customers peace of mind knowing that their investment stays protected. While some off-brand companies offer warranties, they may not remain long enough in business to honor them.

Window company names may not be an issue with you, but the future owners of your home might be interested in these. If you’re considering selling your home in the future, many real estate agents like to emphasize not only beautiful features of the structure, but also known brand names.
