Yes. High quality replacement windows/doors, properly sealed and installed, can have a significant impact on your heating and cooling costs.

How high is up? Sorry. Let’s say you are buying a car. You shop around. The distance between the best and worst price is pretty close (10% either way). Not so, windows. You can literally have one quote that is 3x the price of another for the same house. (OK, it’s gettin’bloggy here but it’s important so here is the Blog link).

Some people say “Windows are windows” and snag the lowest price.

Have you ever done that and it didn’t work out? Say with that dehumidifier you bought that could wake the dead and you swear ‘It’s getting wetter in here?!’

Some people assume more expensive is better, so they the most expensive ones. Well – without mentioning any names – there are 3 big successful companies that charge a ton for a very lightweight window.

Well, have the “Never-Never Plan” which sounds like so many companies Ads. In truth, 0 % Interest and deferred payments are all factored in. ‘Pay me now or Pay Me Later’ as an old TV used to say. You don’t have to do them all at once. Pick the biggest problems first. And remember – banks love windows since they both increase your asset value and reduce HVAC expenses for the next 30 years.

To determine if your windows are functioning properly you should look for the following:

Is there moisture, condensation or fog between your panes of glass. This usually indicates a seal failure?

Are there areas on your carpet or furniture that are faded because of the suns ultraviolet rays? This is an indication that your windows need Low E glass to block the sun’s harmful rays.

Do you have the properly rated windows for your climate? Windows in the colder Canadian climates required higher ER rating to increase their Energy Efficiency.

Poor operation. Are you having difficulties opening or closing your windows?

Rotting and pealing around your window frame may indicate it is time for your windows to be replaced.

Today’s high-performance windows and doors are far more energy-efficient than products built 25 years ago. Today’s products are more airtight, with advanced technology such as low-emissivity (low-E) glass, inert gas between the panes.

I dunno. If I had to guess … maybe chartreuse?

Just Curious.

You can recycle old windows at a local recycling service or have the window installers dispose of them. If the windows are still in good shape, you can give them away to someone who can use them. Old windows can also be repurposed into vintage decor, made into tables, or turned into outdoor decoration.

With the look of your windows, style and functionality are the two primary decisions you’ll have to make. Sliding windows and crank windows are the two common types when it comes to functionality. Sliding windows can slide up/down or left/right, whereas crank windows move inward or outward on a hinge. Style and functionality of your windows will largely come down to personal preference and what you think looks best in your home.

Blah, blah, blah… Green TNT Windows. Your best choice.
