Warranties

Check the warranties to ensure the windows will truly stand the test of time. A lot of companies in the window market will claim “lifetime warranties,” but the warranty really only lasts 10 years. Here at Conservation Construction our lifetime warranties are true lifetime limited warranties that last decades and are even transferable.

Protective Coatings

Protective coatings and window replacement are just standard on most windows. It’s important to remember to ask whether or not the windows you’re buying have these protective coatings. At Conservation Construction we use a specialty Low-E glass coating. This coating goes above and beyond regular protection. It includes 4 layers of protection with 4 layers to bounce harmful UV rays back outside where they belong. This not only protects your home from becoming hotter in the summer, it prevents your floors from becoming bleached by the sun. Additionally, we use another coating for the glass called Easy Clean Coating. This coating works with the sun to decompose organic matter from the glass. This leaves your windows cleaner longer without you having to do much maintenance at all. 

 

Installation Experience

It’s always a good idea to ask how much experience their installers have. At Conservation Construction we have installers with decades of experience installing windows. This means when they install the windows they know how to do it right the first time. Remember, the window is only as efficient and functional if it’s installed properly. 

 

What Time Of Year Is Best? 

Replacing windows when the weather is warm but not too warm, say in late spring or early summer. This has several benefits . . .  If you’re replacing multiple windows, doing so while the weather is warm outside will help keep unwanted cold drafts from entering your home during the project. That being said, there are some advantages to installing windows in the winter. There are less people wanting to install windows at this time so it may be a quicker installation if you wait and decide to do it then.
