Have you ever heard that old saying “An apple a day keeps the Dr. Away?” I have a new saying for you which applies to windows which goes . . . “A window drain keeps the water away.” It’s pretty easy to remember. This one little drain can save your home the strife of water damage down the line.
How does it do this? It does this by allowing water a place to go when the rain is pouring. Our windows allow rain to drip down and out through these tiny drains at the bottom of the window. They filter the water away from the house so you don’t have to worry about it damaging your window well or seals again. This is just one of the many reasons so many people choose a Conservation Window.
I don’t know about you, but before I got new windows I had a terrible time keeping rain water from pooling on the window seals. My husband and I had to caulk several times just to stop the water from getting inside our house. Then there was always cleaning up the water as it was happening and that was a huge hassle. Now that I have new windows I don’t have to worry about water leaking into my home at all. It’s been so nice to see the blizzards and heavy rain come in knowing that my house is protected.
The good news is that if you get a Conservation Vinyl Window, each and every window you now own will have this bottom drain. This is also an exclusive feature we provide at Conservation Construction–no other company offers this type of bottom drain. The window itself too which has a specific Easy Clean Glass coating was made to be a frictionless surface. So if rain or snow does come your way this coating literally “Sheets Off” any debris. This will keep your windows clean and shiny. Easy Clean Glass Coating also uses the power of the sun to decompose matter from the glass literally cleaning the window for you. Less cleaning for you means a easier time in your own home.
If all these things don’t equate to you wanting a window still, remember your window sill and window frame. Windows leaks are common, and you deserve a window that works for you from the top of the window to the bottom. Replacement windows can give you more protection from the weather whether it be rain or shine.
Lastly, we work with your HOA on your behalf so you don’t have to. Once we get your HOA information, we go through all the jumps and hoops and try to get your HOA approval done quickly. This means you could have new windows in within weeks. How cool is that.
What are you waiting for? A rain resistant window is just around the corner for you. Get them before another storm blows into town and the rain could literally be “Sheeting Away” from your home.
