4 Warning Signs You Need to Schedule a Window Replacement

No window lasts forever, so when it’s time to make an upgrade, make sure to call Renewal by Andersen® Central PA. Installing our replacement windows  can improve your home’s energy efficiency, curb appeal, security and weather resistance. Here are the warning signs that you need to replace your aging windows.

  1. Poor Window Operation – Your windows should be easy to open and close. Windows that are hard to operate can make your home less secure because the windows might not close properly. In addition, this poor operation also means that your current windows are leaking air, greatly reducing your home’s energy efficiency.

  1. Condensation Between Glass Panes – Condensation on the outer panes of the glass is harmless, but condensation between glass panes is a serious problem. This is a sign that the insulating gases between your window panes have leaked out, so your windows can no longer help you save energy.

  1. You Have Single-Glazed Windows – You should strongly consider upgrading your current single-pane windows. Advances in window technology have made current double-pane windows incredibly energy-efficient. Upgrading your windows will have a noticeable effect on your home’s energy efficiency.

  1. You Feel a Draft – Feeling a draft near your window often indicates that you have a warped frame or sash, or that the window seals have failed. This means that energy is leaking through your window. This can lead to your energy bills increasing as your HVAC works harder to maintain your desired interior temperature. Replacing your windows is the long-term solution to this problem.

If you see any of these signs, Renewal by Andersen recommends investing in our quality replacement windows. We can install sliding windows, double-hung windows, casement windows, picture windows and more. We will handle everything, from window manufacturing to installation. We serve many areas, including Lancaster, PA. Call us at (717) 591-4900 to learn more about our services and products. You can also ask for an in-home consultation.
