Vinyl replacement windows represent the largest market share in the Window business. They are made primarily from polyvinyl chloride (pvc) and (uPVC)which offers many advantages. Windows made from re-enforced vinyl are strong and provide very good energy savings. Energy bills from heating and cooling your house will be reduced. They are available in a wide range of styles and shapes, have moderate to low U-values and can are all easily customized. However a great disadvantage of this material is that they come in a wide range of prices. This is were so many people get fooled, they think that from ten feet away all vinyl replacement windows are the same; THEY ARE NOT. Most companies will sell good, better, or best,...now just think about that for a moment. Energy is at an all time high and going higher all the time, have you every seen energy prices come down and stay down, no you haven't. Then how could you ever think about a cheap inifficient double glazed window when triple glazed Low-E Krypton gas filled windows are available,....and save you the most amount money on your energy bills.

Vinyl windows also are available in a wide range of standard sizes: THIS IS A MYTH There is no such animal as "standard size" windows, never was and never will be all vinyl replacement windows are custom made to fit in your home only,..oh you can get lucky and find a size that is close to yours but any good company will come out to your home and measure your windows for the proper fit and perfect installation.

Look for the NFRC label and ONLY purchase windows with an U Value of .18 or less (lower is better,..like golf)

In addition, you can choose from many different colors. The color is actually part of the material which makes them essentially scratch resistant. The only down side is that once you choose the color, you cannot change it. Vinyl product lines are not made of a material that can be painted but they will never need any maintenance!
