When looking over different options for an upcoming home improvement project, there is no questioning that window replacement should be on the list. Replacing old windows can have a major impact on any home. New windows can transform a poorly lit room and add much needed sunshine, enhance an interior or exterior design and much more. Still, the most impressive feature of new windows is the energy they can save a homeowner. By sealing off the unwanted passage of air, both into and out of your home, energy bills will quickly decrease. Older windows are notorious for this unwanted escapement of air. Homeowners also have the government on their side, with tax credits available for approved energy-saving window products. Here are five options in window replacement to consider.
1. Double hung windows. One of the most common options is the double hung windows found in traditional homes. Rotted sills and framework may be the culprit when a homeowner wonders how energy is escaping. Look for the clean lines that will allow for the best views out of your home. Sloped sill forces on double hung windows will allow for ideal drainage in window exteriors.
