Replacement Aluminum Windows

Some of our residential clients have asked about replacing their existing aluminum windows with new aluminum windows. You may ask why, as many homeowners have opted to upgrade to newer Fiberglass or Vinyl materials, which tend to offer higher efficiency and endurance. Typically, the primary reason is that these homeowners are seeking to maintain the contemporary look of their home. Also, aluminum windows often have thinner frames that maximize viewing area, and with silver (clear anodized) or dark bronze frames, they provide a modern and commercial character to a building.

Like vinyl windows, aluminum windows have been considerably improved over the years. Some replacement aluminum windows have deeper frames, offer higher-performing glass packages, and are built with thermal-break barriers, which help to reduce temperature differential, thus improving energy efficiency and reducing "sweating" on the frames.

Reasons to choose new Aluminum Windows:	Reasons why you might consider switching to Fiberglass or Vinyl Windows:
High visibility (thin lines) The style/color may match your existing home layout (some homeowners prefer the 'modern' look of aluminum) Good noise insulation	Aluminum thermally expands to some degree in hot and cold (which lowers efficiency) Aluminum is more prone to condensation problems in high moisture areas. Aluminum may eventually oxidize and rust
