Once you’re experiencing problems with your old, drafty windows, you might want to replace them with new ones rather than leaving them alone. Not only does it assure that your replacement windows are more durable and reliable, but it can also help you save money.Â
Consider the Utility BillsÂ
If you have old windows, then this might be the sign that you need new ones. With your drafty windows, you are most likely letting indoor air outside, causing a significant rise to your energy bills. In fact, energy loss through these outdated windows makes up nearly 40% of your heating and cooling costs.Â
With a window replacement, you can easily save a huge percentage of your utility bills. Double- or triple-pane windows are great examples of replacements you could have installed to eliminate the possibility of drafts. These windows provide low-emissivity (Low-E) coated glass so air won’t simply escape the comfort of your room.
Invest in UpgradesÂ
From patio doors to floor tiles, it’s always a smart move to invest in upgrades to make your home look more beautiful and impressive. If you’re planning to sell your home, spending money on a window replacement could boost your home’s appeal. Some window replacement also offers around 70% return on investment (ROI), raising the value of your home in the market. This will undoubtedly give you an added advantage as most buyers are interested in purchasing homes that conserve energy.
Better MaintenanceÂ
With a new set of windows, you can say goodbye to spending money on costly repairs and maintenance. Make sure that the materials of your new windows are easy to clean and covered with a lifetime warranty. As such, you wouldn’t be spending a lot of money on repairs. With proper care, you wouldn’t need new windows anytime soon, thus prompting you to save money.Â
