- You feel drafts coming in around the windows
Your electricity bills are higher than normal but your energy habits haven’t changed
Your windows are difficult to open and close
You notice condensation between the panes of glass
You hear outside noise coming through your windows
If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to start planning your replacement project.

Vinyl Windows
Vinyl windows, which are less costly than wood windows are and come standard in many homes, are extremely easy to care for. They provide moderate insulation because vinyl is a poor conductor of temperature (that means the frame won’t become too cold or too hot during weather extremes). Vinyl window frames are generally hollow with one exception: vinyl-clad windows. Vinyl-clad windows are based on a wood frame and coated with vinyl for added durability and low maintenance.

However, the aluminum is sometimes susceptible to scratches and dents.
