Brand new windows can improve the energy efficiency of your space while also transforming the appearance of your home. However, many people wonder if they should update their windows now or wait until a more favorable season. Here is a little more information about how seasonality can impact window replacement. 

Spring and Summer

The spring and summer months are ideal for window replacement, since the weather is typically mild, especially in the mornings, which won’t skew your indoor temperatures significantly enough to cause discomfort. However, since spring and summer are also prime months for insect activity, having days when your windows are not in place could allow flying insects to access your home. 

Before a window replacement is scheduled during the spring or summer seasons, professionals will check the weather carefully to watch out for issues like rainstorms. Additionally, they will check the forecast to screen for especially high or low temperatures, since caulk typically adheres better in warm, mild weather. 

Fall and Winter 

If you need a window replacement, updating them in the fall or winter could help you to stave off high energy bills caused by leaks around your window casings. Fall and winter window replacement also offers installers the ability to quickly and easily spot leaks, since cold air is easy to detect when it comes in contact with warm air. 

To fend off problems with adhesives setting in the cold, professionals may use space heaters or special insulative blankets while replacing your window. Afterward, the seals will be checked before the replacement is complete to ensure proper installation.
