Why Replacement Windows are a Smart Investment in Sacramento
Most Sacramento area homeowners wouldn’t cash their paychecks and then throw their money out of the window. But that’s what they’re doing if the windows in their homes are outdated, drafty and are not energy efficient. They are allowing air conditioned air in the summer and heated air in the winter to literally escape out of the windows.
Sacramento Replacement Windows are one of the best home improvement projects that any homeowner can invest in.
That’s because replacement windows provide a noticeable return on investment immediately and in a variety of important ways.
- Better Insulating – Lower Energy Costs
- Better Solar Heat Gain Protection
- Better Looks
- Higher Resale Value
- Better Security
- Sound Reduction
- Better Curb Appeal
- Safer Emergency Exit Path!
Of all the benefits above, not many think about the last one. If you have a reason to get out of your home quickly in an emergency, such as a fire, you might need to exit through the window. This is called an egress.
If your old single pane aluminum or wood builder original windows are in bad shape, they may jam in an emergency. Or worse yet, maybe they are painted shut.
Our new modern vinyl, fiberglass and aluminum windows GLIDE! You’ll want to let the fresh air in (they all come with new screens) and, if needed in an emergency, you’ll be able to exit swiftly and safely.

Replacement Window Options
There are a couple of options that you might want to consider when it comes to replacement windows in Sacramento.
Glass Package
If you currently have single pane windows, about all they do for you is keep the rain out. Their low insulating ability, air leakage, and loss of 25 to 50 percent of the energy to heat and cool your home are all good reasons to replace them.
Upgrading to double pane windows increases energy efficiency because of the many options you have in choosing the glass package for your replacement windows.
Look for a window with an Energy Star label which compares performance based on:
- The U-factor – how well it prevents heat from escaping
- Solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) – how well it blocks heat from the sun
- Visible transmittance – the amount of light that comes through
- Air leakage – how much air will pass through cracks in the window assembly
- Condensation resistance – resistance to condensation on the interior surface
- Products with the Energy Star label help you determine the right window for your area.
