Replacing Your Windows California

What are the advantages to replacing your windows? Most houses in California will long outlive their original windows. In time, rain and sun take their toll on anything exposed to the weather. But rising energy costs may make the best argument for updating old single-pane sashes.

Most houses will long outlive their original windows. In time, rain and sun take their toll on anything exposed to the weather. But rising energy costs may make the best argument for updating old single-pane sashes.

New windows can be expensive, but you may find you'll get a lot for your money if you opt to completely replace old windows. Technology and design advances mean new windows last longer with less maintenance, while cutting heating and cooling bills dramatically--up to 39 percent for a 2,000-square-foot home, according to the Efficient Windows Collaborative, an industry organization. In addition, the IRS and many local utilities and municipalities offer incentives or credits for installing Energy Star-qualified windows, doors and skylights.

And you won't have to sacrifice style. Today there are many design options to suit most any architectural period and fit almost any size, including familiar single- and double-hung windows, as well as awnings, sliders, casements and fixed transoms.

If your siding, window frames and trim are still in good condition, consider replacing only the window sash--the moveable part of the window containing the glass. You'll get many of the same energy advantages you'd get from a new-construction window but at a lower cost and with less disruption.

IT'S THE DETAILS THAT COUNT

Traditional wood frames are still widely available, but aluminum-clad, fiberglass, vinyl and aluminum windows are more common.
