Why Replace Your Windows?
Many people think that the best time for window replacements is right before selling a home. However, new windows can benefit any house. Older properties often have single pane windows, which lose a lot of thermal energy and don’t protect against drafts. Even if you caulk the panes, old windows simply can’t offer the same comfort and efficiency as new options. Window replacements offer a number of benefits, including:
- High energy efficiency: Did you know that the average home loses roughly 30% of its energy through the windows? Double pane, Energy Star® rated windows are designed to keep warmth in and cold out to reduce your energy consumption.
- Money savings: Highly efficient windows will cut down on your monthly utility bills by keeping your home comfortable without relying as heavily on a heating and cooling system. Many homeowners save between $100 and $600 per year by switching to more efficient windows.
- Noise reduction: If you live by a busy street, then you know how easily sounds can travel through a thin sheet of glass. Newer windows are designed to insulate against noise in addition to energy, which will keep your house quieter and more relaxing.
- Boosted curb appeal: Many old windows have discolored frames, peeling paint, or other aesthetic issues. Replacements will give your home a facelift, making it look sharper and more modern.
Replacing Windows Before Selling Your Home
If you plan to sell your home, then now is a great time to invest in new windows if you haven’t recently! In addition to all of the reasons listed above, new windows will make your home stand out on the market. As a renovation to make your property more efficient, comfortable, and aesthetically pleasing, window replacements have a great return on investment. Prospective homeowners are looking to save money wherever possible – so if that means they don’t need to replace the windows themselves AND they know their energy bill will be affordable, it’s a win-win!
