Top Signs that it’s Time to Replace Your Home’s Windows
Your windows play a crucial role in maintaining your home's comfort, energy-efficiency, and aesthetic appeal. However, over the years, windows can wear down, leading to various problems that can be resolved by investing in window replacement. At Liberty Glass, Blinds and Shades, we provide expert window replacement in the greater Tacoma, WA area. Here are four signs that it’s time to install new windows in your home.
One of the most common signs that your windows need to be replaced is when you start to feel drafts. If cold or hot air is seeping through your windows, it's a sign that the seals are broken or the frames have deteriorated. This not only makes your home uncomfortable, but also drives up your energy bills as your HVAC system works overtime to maintain a consistent temperature.
Windows should open and close smoothly. If you find yourself struggling to move them or notice that they are sticking, this could indicate warping or balance issues within the frames. In older windows, this often means that the hardware has deteriorated, and it's time for a replacement. This issue could pose a safety hazard if, for example, you need to escape out of a bedroom window during an emergency.
As they age, windows can suffer from wear and tear, including cracks, chips, or warping. If your windows show signs of rotting wood, moisture buildup between panes, or cracked glass, these are red flags that they’re no longer providing the protection and insulation your home needs.
If you've noticed a sudden spike in your energy bills without a change in usage, your windows could be to blame. Older windows tend to have poor insulation, leading to heat loss during the winter and heat gain during the summer. Replacing them with energy-efficient windows will help reduce energy costs and maintain a more comfortable indoor environment.
