If you’re a first time replacement window buyer, finding the right fit for your Buena Park home could feel like an overwhelming task. There are a number of important choices to make throughout the process, and if you don’t know what to look for it can be difficult to know whether or not you’ve found quality replacement windows. The good news is you don’t have to be a window expert to shop like one. Here we’ve gathered some of our favorite replacement window tips to help ensure you love your replacement windows for years to come.
Replacement Windowsare Not a DIY Job
Trust us, we get it. YouTube and Pinterest make it seem like every household project can be made into a “Do It Yourself” job, but when it comes to your windows this isn’t typically the case. Installing your replacement windows can lead to some major safety issues, especially in homes where small children live and a secure job is vital. Also, if you’ve chosen energy efficient replacement windows for your home then you’ll want to have them professionally installed, as the slightest gap or draft can make them virtually useless.
When Comparing Replacement Windows, Always Check the Label
To the naked eye, two replacement windows can appear to be exactly the same, but in reality they likely hold totally different capabilities. So how do you compare? Skip the marketing tactics and look straight for the label. A window’s label holds all the information you need to know like whether or not the window is ENERGY STAR preferred or what the window’s U-factor is. Remember, the U factor tells you how well the replacement window will insulate your home, and the lower the number the better its insulating capabilities.
Don’t Be Afraid to Ask Questions
No one expects you to become an overnight window expert, and it’s worth it to you and your wallet to take the time to ask any questions you may have about your replacement window options. Don’t worry, the right window company will be able to answer your questions without pressuring you into buying or charging you a consultation fee. Just jot down your questions as they come to mind, schedule an appointment with a window expert, and remember to take notes! You’ll find that taking this extra step will save you plenty of time and headache in the long run.
