You’ve owned your home for many years. Your windows are original, or at least you’ve had them for as long as you’ve owned your home. You’ve been thinking about replacing your windows. Maybe they’re starting to look old and dated. Perhaps they’re cold and drafty. Or the seals broke, and they’re foggy.
You’re at a loss. You’re not sure when is the best time to change out windows. It isn’t like there’s a hard and fast rule indicating that windows must be replaced by a certain date. So what do you do next? Should you wait a while longer? Or do you need to take action soon to avoid more severe consequences? In this article we’ll give you some signs for which to look so that you can make an informed decision.
Identifying When To Replace Windows
Potential Detriments Of Delaying Window Replacement
Waiting to replace an old, inefficient window will never benefit the homeowner. Excess energy consumption. Moisture intrusion. Mold and mildew buildup. Outside noise. There is no logical reason for a homeowner to compromise their health and well-being (or sanity) by putting up with decrepit windows when installing new ones will resolve all of these issues.
