"I used the company on two occasions for my former home and for my new home. I used Champion Window Company of Wichita, LLC to replace eight windows and for my new property they have replaced about three windows. When comparing price and service to Anderson and Pella this company wins hands down on customer service and pricing. I already have referred this company many times."
"Overall, I am very pleased with the work they completed! The process of receiving a quote, booking the work, and paying the bill were incredibly user friendly and easy to complete. These truly could not have gone any better and it may have been the easiest thing I have done with house work. I had a few other quotes on this work and this company was a better deal by and large or at least competitive with the other offers. The work was done largely to my satisfaction with only a few very minor criticisms. There were some areas that were particularly dirty on my house and it appears that there are spots on the under-side of the siding that may have been missed. The window cleaning was decent on most windows, but it looks like they may have been done in an order that made the lower level windows dirty again before the work was completed. Since the window cleaning was included in the base price, this is hardly worth mentioning because most places would charge extra for this service anyways, so something is better than nothing. Overall, I liked the work they did and I would absolutely consider using them the next time I need this work done!"

Yes, including the frame instead of just referring to the glass opening for window dimensions is the standard. However, some manufacturers may refer to the rough opening instead of the framed opening when listing sizes. Always confirm which measurement a manufacturer is using before ordering windows.
Storm windows have about the same life span as standard windows—between 20 and 30 years. Vinyl and wood storm windows last longer than aluminum, but they all fall within that life span range. Of course, how long your storm windows last will depend on how much severe weather they see. Direct impacts, in particular, can quickly reduce how long your storm windows last.
The gas between window panes, typically argon or krypton, acts as a barrier to heat transfer. This means it helps keep your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer by preventing heat from passing through the glass. This gas layer also reduces condensation by stabilizing the temperature across the window and helps minimize noise. Essentially, it’s all about improving energy efficiency and comfort while lowering those utility bills.
The best time to remove and restore old windows is during temperate weather. Late spring and the early onset of winter are ideal seasons. While summer has its challenges (e.g., bugs, heat, and dust), it’s also a good time to do restoration work. The worst time to restore old windows is during the winter, especially if it is particularly cold and snowy.
Visibility through tinted house windows or privacy film depends on the lighting. During the day, the tint or film typically prevents people from seeing inside. However, at night, if you have lights on inside your home, the interior will be brighter than the outside, which allows people to see in. You can choose from various shades of privacy film, from lighter to darker, to optimize the level of privacy you want.
