Window Styles

choices available prior to making decisions is of paramount importance. There are numerous ‘add-ons’ with glass glazing, pane layering, framing
materials, insulation additions and accessories and extra hardware opportunities that not only increase the performance of the new windows but

to you and your home!
Windows Options
Basically, there are two types of windows that homeowners can consider, windows that open & close and windows that are fixed into place with no
options to open or close. Fixed picture windows & fixed casement windows do not have an open/close function, there are some that have one fixed
pane and one operational pane like single slider windows & single hung windows, some with two working panes such as double slider windows, double
hung windows & end vent slider windows and some that are fully operational like casement windows and awning windows. Now, comes the fun part as
you can opt to combine different window types, like having a bay window consisting of fixed panes with casement windows, a bow window with
operational windows, or have several operational windows placed together! When it comes to window replacement Halton Hills, your only limited to

Windows Performance
The performance ratings help to decipher what windows would work best for you in your given climate, and dictate energy efficiency, thermal
performance, sound blocking enhancements, insulating factors and more. The glass in the windows can provide thermal capabilities, insulation
through spacing between panes, energy efficiency and sound blocking features. The space between panes can be filled with inert gas to add
insulating factors, and the glass can be glazed in multiple layers for higher performance ratings. ENERGY STAR® certification (the most energy
efficient windows product) can provide up to approximately 40% in energy savings, which is well worth any homeowners’ initial investment. Our
company and friendly staff will assist homeowners in ascertaining the best performing windows for their specific needs, while staying on budget
and in style preferences.
Window After Care & Maintenance
Windows care & maintenance is very easy and only takes a few minutes of your time when done at the turn of each season. Gentle soaps, warm
water, soft rags and gentle glass cleaner are all you need to prep your windows for an oncoming season. The rule of thumb and a good habit to
get into is…rinse, rinse and rinse so more! Quite often, homeowners wash their windows and framing with soaps and do not rinse well enough,
which can have adverse effects. Rinsing the residue of any soaps very well will ensure that there is no residue to damage any parts of your
windows. Never use any harsh chemicals, scratchy cloths or sponges and do not use acidic solutions like vinegar.
