The Perks of Vinyl Windows

Can there really be perks to being a vinyl window? Well, if I had to be a window, vinyl would most definitely be my choice. For these simple reasons:
  • Created perfectly. Vinyl windows are made to order. Each one precisely designed and created to your size and color specifications.
  • Longer than average life span. Vinyl windows have an average life expectancy that is twice that of other windows. The National Association of Certified Home Inspectors reports that the predicted life expectancy of vinyl windows can be up to 40 years. That is double the rate reported for aluminum clad and double pane windows.
  • No maintenance. Vinyl windows do not need to be scraped and painted. Vinyl is not an attractant for pests and will not need to be repainted due to cracking and imperfection in its finish. Vinyl does not absorb water so there will be no swelling or cracking due to moisture issues.
Windows stand in holes in the side of your home. These holes need to be filled with the most energy efficient, attractive and practical option available. Whether you are in need of new or replacement windows you will find that there are many options at your fingertips. Windows can be made of wood, vinyl, fiberglass or aluminum.
