Choosing the right window for your home is a matter of finding the right balance between budget and quality. After all, windows are not the only parts of the home that will require replacement during the renovation process. So the key is to find good windows while remaining on budget, without compromises that will be detrimental to the final results.


Product Quality


As mentioned above, home improvement projects need to find the right balance, considering cost without compromising quality. Cutting costs by going for low quality products will result in momentary savings but will cost homeowners more down the line, in the long-term when the products degrade earlier and require replacement. High-quality products, on the other hand, will last longer and result in long-term savings. Simonton branded windows are guaranteed to be of high quality and durability, as they are tested by the AAMA Gold Label Certification Program. This is the highest level of testing for windows and doors, evaluating thermal performance as well as structural integrity.


Consider Window Design Options


Homeowners should research window companies and the products they offer, in order to know the design options the brands provide. With this, they will know if the windows will match their home's style and adjust their plans accordingly. These window design options will have different aesthetics, structural considerations as well as budget ranges. Simonton windows come in styles such as:


Double Hung Windows: Easy to clean due to their inward tilting sashes, they can be conveniently opened by lowering the top or raising the bottom sash.


Slider Windows: These glide horizontally, going from side to side. Their streamlined contemporary profile lets more natural light inside homes.


Casement Windows: Easily opened with cranks outwards to either side, these windows provide open views and great ventilation.


Awning Windows: Hinged at the top so they can open outward, they give rooms added airflow.


Picture Windows: These are fixed and cannot be opened, they come in a variety of shapes and styles and are the most energy efficient window style.


Garden Windows: These project outward and give space to display decorations. Ideal over kitchen sinks.


Energy Efficiency


Simonton windows are ideal for keeping homes comfortable, their energy efficiency helps maintain the climate indoors. Vinyl windows can be upgraded with low-e coatings, argon gas fills, and ENERGY STAR certified features to make them even more efficient at keeping heat in during colder seasons and keeping homes cool during warmer weather.
