Why vinyl windows, why not
- Vinyl windows are made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and are the best product available that creates a high degree of energy efficiency for a homeowner. The proof for this claim is the R-value that vinyl windows have. The R-value is an important factor when measuring energy efficiency because it measures the resistance to air passing through the window and PVC is unmatched for its’ ability to block air infiltration into a home.
- Vinyl windows are simple and easy to install and when a certified professional assumes responsibility for the installation and it can happen in a relatively short time period.
- The best part of vinyl windows is all the options that you enjoy when choosing colour, sizes, and styles of windows to match your home. Windows have never been considered a design accent until vinyl windows became an integral part of a home’s décor adding life and vibrancy to a home’s exterior.
- Vinyl windows are durable, maintenance free and built to last – three things every homeowner is looking for when they take on a home renovation project that they are investing a few thousand dollars in. Vinyl windows are stain free, UV resistant and will not scratch, and that creates a set-it and forget-it scenario for the vinyl windows you purchase.
