As you may already know, there are a multitude of benefits that come with replacing your old windows. Not only does window replacement enhance your home’s appearance inside and out, it increases comfort, energy efficiency and functionality. While window replacement can take place pretty much throughout the whole year, there are some times that are better than others.
Here’s a look at why fall in particular offers its own unique advantages. When you do decide to choose fall to replace your windows, get in touch with a professional Boston contractor that can install them properly.
Better Energy Efficiency
With the cold months approaching, it’s time for you as a homeowner to ensure your heating system is in good working order so you can face winter with confidence. However, if you have old and drafty windows, their performance and energy efficiency can suffer greatly. Replacing your windows in the fall minimizes energy loss through the glass, gaps or cracks. Thus, your indoor temperatures can stay warm and cozy without making your furnace or heat pump work overtime.
Off-Peak Installation
Spring and summer are traditionally the busiest times of year for window replacement because of the nice weather. However, in peak season, you can run into scheduling issues and long waiting times because of contractor unavailability. Fall is off-peak season for window replacement, so you can get peace of mind booking an appointment that works with your family’s schedule. When your contractors have more time to devote to your project, you can rest assured every detail will be covered with precision and care.
Nice Weather
While fall brings with it cooler weather, the air temperature is still mild and pleasant. In fact, fall weather provides ideal working environments for window replacement. The milder temperatures allow sealing materials such as caulk to set properly. You’ll also avoid issues with working in the extreme cold or heat, which may cause materials to shrink or expand.
Preparing For Winter
Rising heating costs in winter often lead to sky high utility bills. When you install windows in the fall, you will be well prepared to handle the frigid temperatures of winter, which is just around the corner. Professionally-installed windows can prevent cold air intrusion while maintaining the warmth of your interior. The bright side is, you can significantly save on your utility bills.
Upgraded Aesthetics
New windows add a fresh, updated appearance to your home just in time for the busy and fun holiday season. From double hung windows to bow windows, you can wow your guests with an updated décor that will not only look beautiful but will keep everyone warm at your holiday gatherings.
