Window replacement is a worthwhile investment. After all, having new windows installed offers so much: smoother operation, lower maintenance, energy savings, fewer drafts and easier cleaning. You can tell you’re getting good-quality windows based on their features.

Renewal by Andersen® of San Diego, your local window company, shares some ways to know you are getting quality replacement windows.

Appearance

When choosing replacement windows, you have the option to either match them with your existing units or pick a different style that blends well with your home’s architecture. A visit to the nearest showroom can help you compare windows of a different brand or different models of the same brand. Good-quality windows should be well-made, complete with attractive hardware and sturdy material for the frames and sash.

Operation

Picking operable windows makes sense, especially if ventilation is a requirement. Be sure that they open and close smoothly, with cranks and locking devices being able to withstand heavy use. Effortless operation is an indication of good-quality windows.

Glass Selection

Double-pane windows with low-emissivity (low-E) coating and argon gas fill between the panes are always recommended. These are considered good-quality units given how they help keep the indoors comfortable during summer and winter.

Warranties

Your windows should be covered by a warranty. See to it that the warranties cover parts and labor as well as the frame material and the glass.

Renewal by Andersen of San Diego offers energy-saving windows backed by the strongest limited warranties in the industry. Our top-notch window installation services give you peace of mind knowing your replacement windows work to enhance your home’s curb appeal and improve energy efficiency.
