Q: Does putting plastic over windows help insulate them?

• <div><p>Using plastic shrink film over the window will cut down on drafts, which makes the air inside your home feel warmer. Plastic shrink film doesn&rsquo;t quite have the insulative properties of a new window or of adding insulation inside the window jamb, but it will help. Plus, it&rsquo;s a cost-effective solution to keeping your home warmer.</p></div>

Q: Why do my windows look smeared after cleaning?

• <div><p>The most likely cause of smearing or streaking after cleaning your windows is residue left on the glass from the cleaner you&rsquo;re using. Consider diluting the solution and cleaning them again, or use old newspaper to dry the windows after cleaning, as this will soak up any residual material. Additionally, aim to clean your windows on a cool, cloudy day, as cleaners will dry more quickly on the glass if it&rsquo;s hot and sunny, promoting streaking.</p></div>

Q: Can you fix a window without replacing it?

• <div><p>Yes, you can fix windows without replacing them. However, this will depend on the severity of the issue and what your needs are. Minor water damage, broken glass, damaged casing, and worn caulking are usually easy repairs. But if there is excessive damage, the windows are constantly foggy, or the windows are very old, it&rsquo;s best to consider replacing them. Replacement windows cost between <b>$575 and $1,475</b> per window, or an average of <b>$850</b> per window. </p></div>

Q: How do you protect windows from the inside during a hurricane?

• <div><p>While plywood will keep winds and debris from shattering your windows from the outside, window film can help protect your windows from the inside. Window film can keep a window from shattering. If your windows break, the film can hold the shards of glass in place, reducing the risk of cuts.</p><p>While you may sometimes see window film marketed as &quot;<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/window-film-no-protection-against-hurricanes.htm">hurricane window film</a>,&quot; note that it doesn't provide sufficient hurricane protection on its own. It's no substitute for plywood, storm windows, or hurricane shutters.</p></div>

Q: Are wood windows energy-efficient?

• <div><p>Wood windows fall in the middle of the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/window-material-types.htm">window frame materials</a> when it comes to energy efficiency. They&rsquo;re more insulating than aluminum and vinyl, but they aren&rsquo;t as efficient as fiberglass or composite frames. If you love the look and lifespan of wood windows and want to maximize efficiency, you can upgrade to double-pane or triple-pane glass and consider window tinting and low-emissivity (low-E) coatings to minimize heat transfer. </p></div>
