Homefront Local uses a unique algorithm to score window replacement companies based on important factors like user reviews and how popular they are in your area.
Swapping out old windows for newer, better models offers several advantages, like maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures, easing the burden on your HVAC and lowering monthly energy bills. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, around 25%–30% of residential heat and AC fees are from the loss of hot and cold air through inefficient windows. The best window replacement companies in San Tan Valley can help you find windows that increase both attractiveness and performance.
When putting money toward quality, energy-efficient replacement windows, begin by learning what attributes to focus on. We first advise selecting windows with an Energy Star certification label, which confirms they meet the performance criteria set by the National Fenestration Rating Council. The label also displays the climate where the windows work best: northern, north-central, south-central or southern.
