Aluminum Replacement Windows
- Slim frames – allow for more glass space, enabling ample light to enter your home, and a better view of the outside world.
- Can become difficult to operate or inoperable over time/ A chain pulley system is traditionally used to raise and lower the window which is only good for 5,000 to 7,000 uses. Although aluminum does not rust, it can corrode and oxidize, disabling moving parts of the window.
- No additional security offered / Although aluminum windows are rigid and have a high impact threshold, they lack additional security features. Single-lock on the windows are less likely to deter unwanted entry.
- Super conductor of both heat and cold meaning the outside temperature is then being transferred into your home, working against your heating and air conditioning.
- Typical aluminum window warranties span no longer than 10 years and are non-transferrable.
- Can be factory finished in many colors to match exterior trim and interior themes.
- Effective in mild climates with predictable high and low temperatures.
