PGT’s WinGuard vinyl windows offer both beauty and value. These affordable windows are energy-efficient, durable, and provide solid protection against Florida’s harsh weather conditions.
They are also good insulators, helping to lower heating and cooling bills. In addition, they are easy to clean and come in a variety of sizes, grilles, colors and finishes.
Low Maintenance
One of the best things about vinyl windows is that they require very little maintenance to keep them looking great. They don’t need to be painted or refinished like wooden or aluminum frames, and they can easily be cleaned with a damp cloth.
They are also extremely durable, and they will not rust or corrode like metal windows can. This is a big benefit because we live in an area with salty air and a lot of exposure to the elements.
Vinyl windows are also an excellent choice for Florida because they offer superior insulation, which is important in our hot and humid weather conditions. They help to keep the heat in during the winter and the cool air out during the summer, which can save you a lot of money on your energy bills. In fact, many of the Metropolitan windows and doors that we sell are ENERGY STAR certified, meaning they can qualify you for a tax credit when you purchase them.
Energy Efficient
Vinyl windows and doors look great and are long-lasting. They are also very energy efficient, offering superior insulation for both heat and cold and reducing the transmission of sound. They come in a variety of colors and styles to match your home’s style, with customization options available to suit your needs. They can be made to fit your existing frame and are very resistant to environmental factors that affect other materials like wood.
The way they are constructed makes them one of the best options for energy efficiency. The multi-cavity design traps air and reduces heat transfer, allowing your HVAC to take a break in the winter and helping you save money month after month. For even more energy savings, choose windows with the ENERGY STAR certification. This can add up to big bucks over the years.
Durability
Many homeowners choose to buy vinyl windows due to the fact that they are made from a durable material and have a longer lifespan than other materials. They are resistant to rotting and warping and are also a great insulator.
They have moisture resistance and don’t require any repainting maintenance. They are also able to resist the harmful UV rays that can cause discoloration in furniture, floors and walls over time.
They can be customized with various features like blinds-between-the-glass, wireless security sensors and beautiful grille patterns. Additionally, the newer models of this window are energy efficient and can meet the stringent Florida impact codes for energy efficiency. They feature a 1’’ thick insulated laminated glass for better performance and are available in several colors and finishes. They also feature triple weather stripping for superior air and water infiltration protection. They are easy to maintain and look great on any home. You’ll be able to save money on your heating and cooling costs all year round.
Low Cost
Vinyl windows have a low price tag and remain affordable throughout their lifespan. They also save homeowners money on energy costs as they prevent air leaks and help keep homes at a comfortable temperature all year round.
They are also a great choice for new construction and home renovations. They can be made to a variety of sizes, styles and colors to suit any aesthetic, and can also be used in conjunction with impact-resistant glass.
They don’t require any painting, which saves homeowners time and money and are easy to clean with soap and water. They are also resistant to the elements and won’t corrode or rust. In addition, if you choose vinyl windows that are ENERGY STAR qualified, they may qualify you for a tax credit. This makes them even more cost-effective.
