4 Signs That It’s Time to Replace Your Windows

Have you checked your windows recently? For some homeowners, it’s not easy to tell if their windows are still in great condition. It’s important for you to determine the condition of your windows. They serve an important role in your home. Fortunately, trusted window and door replacement contractor Renewal by Andersen® of Memphis shares four signs that show when it’s time to replace your windows.

Replace Your Windows

Observe your windows and your home carefully. Your windows can actually tell you when it’s time to replace them. The following are four warning signs your windows may be showing you:

1. Drafts

Look out for drafts in your window. They are easy to notice and are a tell-tale sign that you need to replace your window immediately. Drafts are normal for old and aging windows. It leaks the conditioned air inside your home, making your HVAC system work harder. This results in higher utility bills. The energy efficiency of your home is compromised. In this case, replacing your window will save you money.

2. Cold or Hot to the Touch

If your windows absorb the temperature easily outside your home, that’s another sign to look for replacement windows. This only means that your windows are not insulated anymore. Windows with poor insulation will not keep your conditioned temperature inside.

3. Condensation

Condensation between your window panes means there is moisture inside. Moisture is a bad sign if it’s inside your windows because it indicates that their seal is compromised. Your windows cannot be easily fixed if their seal is broken enough to let moisture inside.

4. Cracked Window Panes and Frames

The cracks in your window panes and frames are a big deal. Cracks in your window frames can manifest into bigger cracks. Meanwhile, the cracks in your window panes can compromise the energy efficiency of your home, and it‘s best that you replace your windows if those cracks are beyond repair. Look for a trusted window contractor and ask them about replacements, including vinyl replacement windows.

"The men who came out were able to work with each other good and professional showing us how the job would start and how long it would take. While they were doing their job they saw that the windows sills were off balance and very diligent and made it repairable to place the new windows in they cleaned up the area where they were working and made it look like no one had been there. They were very polite."
