Vinyl windows are among the most affordable replacement window options and they also offer a number of energy-efficient benefits. They can be found in a wide variety of styles, including double hung windows.
When choosing a window contractor, look for one that has a long track record of customer satisfaction and offers warranty coverage. A qualified provider should be able to recommend energy-efficient windows that keep your home comfortable and lower your energy costs.
Standard Vinyl
Whether you want to refresh your home’s aesthetic or add value, vinyl windows are a great option. They’re durable and energy efficient, and they can be painted to match your home’s décor. They also offer reduced noise penetration and block harmful UV rays.
When shopping for replacement windows, consider a local provider that offers industry-leading warranties. You can also look for a company that has an AAMA-certified installer to ensure quality installation. A certified window pro can prepare your property for installation by covering the yard, moving furniture, and laying down drop cloths.
Depending on your preferences, you may choose clad wood windows for a classic look or aluminum-clad windows for durability and longevity. Vinyl-clad windows are a great choice for Pasadena’s high humidity and varied climate.
Composite Vinyl
Vinyl windows are a newer window trend and a great option for those who want energy efficiency. These windows offer a strong, durable frame and insulation capabilities that help regulate your home’s temperature. This can result in a significant reduction in your monthly utility bills and contribute to sustainable energy use.
They are also easy to customize with a wide range of color options and grid, glass, and style combinations. While they may not provide the same authentic look as wood windows, they are still quite durable and can resist warping and discoloration.
Composite windows are made of a blend of materials including resin and fiberglass. This provides a tough, solid core that is durable under most conditions and can be finished to look like wood.
Engineered Vinyl
Vinyl windows are long-lasting, energy efficient, and easy to maintain. Regular cleaning with mild soap and lukewarm water keeps them looking great and functioning at their best. In addition, they are weather-resistant and resist damage from rot, rust, and insect infestation.
Engineered vinyl offers superior sound control, making it an ideal choice for homes in busy areas or noisy neighborhoods. Advanced STC (Sound Transmission Class) glass features on 1500 Vinyl Collection products reduce exterior noise and help homeowners achieve a quieter, more comfortable home.
Coextrusion technology provides unmatched durability. Strong, thick profiles are resistant to scratching, impact, and fading—making them perfect for jobsite conditions.
Awning Windows
Awning windows, a staple of modern architecture, offer a blend of functionality and aesthetics that is hard to beat. They are top-hinged and open outward from the bottom using a crank mechanism, allowing fresh air to enter your home while keeping rain and other weather elements out.
The best awning windows feature low-E glass that maximizes energy efficiency and protects your interior from harmful UV rays. They also feature advanced mechanisms that make them easy to operate and maintain.
Many awning window styles are also available in different finishes and colors. For example, wood clad windows feature a wooden interior for beauty and durability while an exterior cladding of aluminum or vinyl protects it from Pasadena’s varied climate conditions. These windows are ideal for homeowners who prefer the look of traditional wood windows but want to save on maintenance costs.
Bay & Bow Windows
Add space and a sense of elegance with bay and bow windows. Combining static and operable windows, they create a graceful curve that extends beyond your home’s outer appearance, maximizing interior room and inviting in abundant natural light.
Bow windows are especially well suited for spaces with a panoramic view or that require more space than a traditional window. With their curved design, they can enhance your property’s aesthetic and increase its value.
Choose from double-hung windows that feature two operable sashes, or go with a triple pane model for enhanced energy efficiency. The argon gas-filled glass in our triple-pane models provides superior insulation, helping you save money on your energy bills and contributing to a quieter, more serene indoor environment.
