FAQs
There are several clear indications that a window needs replacement:
- You begin to feel drafts of cold air around them.
- Condensation builds up and your windows “fog up.”
- You notice common signs of aging (decaying window panes after exposure to moisture, cracks, warping, etc.).
- You begin to notice more noise, insects, or water (flooding) entering your property.
Your windows may also likely need to be replaced if your energy bills start to increase substantially. This is because if your windows can’t keep out drafts, your HVAC system will likely have to work harder to maintain a normal temperature inside your home. According to the United States Department of Energy, you can save anywhere between $126 and $465 annually if you replace single-pane windows in your house. If you live in a location with relatively warmer weather, you can enjoy greater savings than people who live in colder areas ($250 vs. $150, on average). If you’re unsure whether your windows simply need repairing or a full replacement, be sure to reach out to a professional.
Adelphia Exteriors can replace your windows with modern alternatives that feature Low E-glass, which curbs the ultraviolet (UV) light that comes through your property. This, in turn, can help minimize fading on carpets, upholstery, and furniture, and thus allow these furnishings to last longer while keeping your home looking new.
A replacement window installation can take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months, depending on when you placed your order until your windows arrive. With a standard window replacement project where only a few windows are needed, you can expect a shorter time frame. On installation day, the time it takes to complete your project depends on the type of windows you purchased and a number of windows being installed.
A standard double pane window from Adelphia Exteriors reflect 90% of the energy and only lets 10% into your home. That means on a nice summer day outside, you can expect 90% of the heat from the sun is going to stay outside, and only 10% will come into your home. In comparison, a typical triple pane window increases to 97% of energy and only allow 3% to pass through to your home. Triple pane windows also can cost up to 30% more than double pane windows, it makes sense to go with double pane windows if you’re looking for the best deal up front.
Homeowners who choose triple pane home windows choose them for the comfort and noise reduction. If comfort is your biggest concern, triple pane windows may be the best option for your home. The extra pane of glass in a standard triple pane window makes it an ideal option for keeping noise out and keep more of the extreme weather out of your home.
