Q: Should I remove my window screens in the winter?

• <div><p>If your winter looks like heavy snow, freezing rain, or frigid temperatures, taking your screens out for the season can be a great way to avoid mesh damage or bent frames. Ice can build up and put pressure on the screen, especially in older or aluminum frames. Removing them also lets in more natural light during those shorter winter days and makes it easier to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/window-maintenance-tips.htm">keep your windows clean</a>. In warmer climates, it&rsquo;s less about protection and more about preference. Some homeowners like the clearer view while others leave them in for convenience. Either way works&mdash;it depends on your setup and what you value more. </p></div>

Q: How do I maintain clean business windows?

• <div><p>Regular cleaning, non-abrasive cleaners, and scheduling professional services every few months help maintain clarity and shine.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a bay window and a garden window?

• <div><p>Bay windows and garden windows differ in both size and window angle. Garden windows are smaller than bay windows and extend from the house at 90-degree angles, creating a box-like shape. Bay windows, often much larger than garden windows, consist of three windows set at 25- to 45-degree angles to jut out from your home. </p></div>

Q: What are the cons of vinyl windows?

• <div><p>Vinyl windows have a few cons to consider before installing. For instance, while vinyl windows are energy efficient in terms of maintaining your home&rsquo;s temperature, the actual process of making vinyl windows involves chemicals that are harmful for the environment. Vinyl windows are also less customizable than some other types of windows.</p></div>

Q: Do windows need to be replaced after hurricanes?

• <div><p>Windows may need to be replaced after a hurricane if they&rsquo;re severely damaged. For example, if you have windows with blown-out glass and a cracked frame, they will need to be replaced. It&rsquo;s a similar story if you have windows with noticeable water damage. However, if your window pane has small cracks but the frame is still in good condition, you may be able to repair the window.</p></div>
