When I had old windows they were so bad I could literally see the curtains blowing in when the windows were shut. We also had severe amounts of water coming in because there was such bad gaps on the windows. We had to go through the house every time a storm came by to wipe up the pools of water to prevent damage. Not to mention the fact that most of the windows were almost impossible to open. The only good side to this was that even though the locks weren’t working, the windows were too hard to open anyway. In this sense they did offer some protection . . .Â
So what do we mean when we say windows that offer more protection? They are more impact resistance to extreme weather and are easy to lock. This can give you peace of mind next time you are leaving town to go on vacation, or if you’re just out of the house when a huge storm hits.Â
Now I’m not saying everybody’s windows out there are as bad as mine were, but regular old glass windows aren’t protecting your home from anything. Old regular glass panes aren’t even energy efficient. In Colorado today, they don’t allow windows to be installed in a house without having some sort of Low-E glass. Some old houses had pre installed windows which might have been okay for the time, but new advancements blow these types of windows out of the water. If you even have a single pane windows.
Our double hung windows/double pane windows are Low-E glass which has a microscopic 4 Layers of coating which protects the glass and insulates. It’s this kind of protection that keeps harmful UV rays out of the house. This means it protects your furniture and floors from becoming bleached over time. This is a totally different kind, yet very beneficial, type of protection.Â
In addition, we have a unique two point locking system on all of our windows which is installed on the top of the sliding portion of the window. See image below.Â
This type of design is used more today and works to prevent forced entry. In the old days people could pry open the window and then bottom lock. This two point locking system does give you better strength and prevention against these types of problems.
