Window shopping fun!

Jason DavisQ & A

There’s a plethora of different window options available for consumers these days!!  Wood, aluminum clad,  to vinyl laminated windows. How do you know what’s the best & the most important features of your new product?  If you are doing the work yourself, make sure you find a knowledgeable salesman from the supply company you are dealing with.  Start by asking questions about style, function , &  energy values.  Energy value  is one of the most important factors & how the ratings stack up against other offered windows!  One other question is do they qualify for the energy tax credit from the government? Yes, this is still available, however the credit is lower than prestimulus levels.

There’s two critical measuring sticks regarding windows & energy. The U-factor measures the non solar heat loss or gain through a window or skylight. The  lower the number, the better.  U- factor energy ratings for windows are opposite of the r-value used to measure insulation energy values. Think of U-factor as a two way street in that it measures heat gain from outside & heat loss from inside your house.  The solar heat gain coefficient measures the solar radiation through  a window.  Again. the lower number equates to less heat transfered into the inside of your house.  The SHGC can be thought of like a shading ability. Check with your supplier to see what climate zone you live in. This will ensure you that your windows meet the energy star standards for your region.

One other thought , think about cleaning  windows that are located on the second story height level!

Enjoy!!

You can start by getting a good idea for the type of look and style you want.

If you don’t know yet, look at some magazines, websites, or watch some home remodeling shows to get some design ideas.

Then, contact us for a Free Design Consultation with a Remodeling Consultant. Generally before construction begins, you’ll want to clear out the area being worked on of all your personal belongings that can be removed. Although, we cover the areas surrounding our work area, you’ll want to protect your furniture from dust with plastic and/or sheets.
