If you’re tired of high energy bills and suspect it’s related to an overworked HVAC system, it may be time to consider window replacement. It’s a great way to make your home more energy efficient and brighten its appearance. There may even be other signs your windows require replacement—so here to explain the most common is B & D Home Improvement, a New Haven County-based team of home builders led by William Kyrtopoulos.

Condensation & Frost

Do your windows develop a thick layer of frost every winter? It may look like something out of a storybook, but the reality is far from quaint—your windows are failing to do their job! Consider a multi-pane window replacement if your current panes collect heavy condensation and frost.

Deteriorating Window Frames

Over time, it’s natural for wooden window frames to crack or rot. While minor damage can be repaired or re-sealed, the best option for a severely warped frame is complete replacement. Plus, a mildew smell indicates it’s being eaten away by fungus. If this describes your current windows, it’s time for a replacement.

Window Cracks

It is only a matter of time before broken glass expands or shatters when exposed to extreme temperature and humidity fluctuations. If your window cracks are held together by no more than duct tape, give B & D Home Improvement a call. They’ll provide an improved window replacement that increases your safety and eliminates drafts.

High Energy Bills

Air escaping through windows and doors is a major cause of high energy bills. If your windows are contributing to your high bills, consider upgrading to energy-efficient windows with multiple panes and argon insulation.

Poor Aesthetics

If your windows have lost their luster and no longer contribute to your home’s curb appeal, a few window replacements are a great investment—especially if you plan on selling in the future. Now is your chance to get more natural light, improve airflow, and make your home an even more comfortable place.
