"The rest of my new Anderson replacement windows were installed this fall and I am very pleased with them. The job was scheduled for 4 days but the installers completed in 3 days. The installers were very polite, professional and neat. All the windows are fantastic and especially pleased with the look of the new basement windows which look so much better than the original ones. It is also nice to not have any more winter frosted windows. I would definitely recommend Renewal by Anderson to anyone needing new windows."
"Professional and pleasant. I called a half dozen companies and they were the only ones to show up. Gave me a fair price for the work to be performed. My neighbor was curious about I was having done, came over and decided to have work done for him. I am very happy and will likely use them again."
"The project was high quality work. Had my barn door installed and also all interior doors replaced. Painted, hung, and all hardware updated and installed. Also not only was I highly satisfied with the work but also they finished on time and had great detail to the overall project! Highly recommend and definitely going to use them for any future projects!"
"Throughly amazed with the quality of work these gentlemen did on our home. They were extremely hard workers that returned my phone calls, showed up to work when they said they would and cleaned up the work area each day. You donâ t find many younger people with this work ethic any more. Would highly recommend them and will use them again!"
"Nexus pro did an awesome job on my pool deck. Added features for ease of cleaning.
Nexus has great attention to the details and quality is important."
"Summer did a fantastic job. My carpet is 19 years old and had gone through a lot of puppy training over the years. Summer was really affordable and made my carpet look as good as when I moved in to this house 13 years ago. I highly recommend her, and check her website. She does so much more than just carpet cleaning."
"This company performs quality work, they stand behind their work and are easy to work with. They are honest and have quality employees. I have used them before this project but this was a major project and they worked with me to ensure it was done to my satisfaction and that it was done to code. They cleaned up each day after they were done. I highly recommend them and will use them again for other projects. The project was completed in a timely manner, was reasonably priced."
When specifying window sizes, manufacturers use a standard four-digit code system. The first two numbers represent window width, and the last two represent window height. For example, a window with a code of 2917 has dimensions of 2 feet, 9 inches wide by 1 foot, 7 inches high. Windows with even dimensions include zeros as placeholders. For example, a window that is 5 feet wide by 2 feet high would have a code of 5020.
Consider adding sash locks to your windows to fix drafty windows if you don't currently have any. Sash locks in double-hung and single-hung windows help to create a tight seal when windows are shut.
Look for stickers at the top or inside of the frame, like in the tracks when the window is open. Some brands also stamp their name onto the frame itself or place it between the panes of glass, although this is less common. If you can’t find the info on the window itself, consider asking your neighbors or HOA.
Regular cleaning, non-abrasive cleaners, and scheduling professional services every few months help maintain clarity and shine.
Mulled windows are no less efficient than individual windows, provided the wall opening is the same size. Larger wall openings filled with glass will always reduce overall energy efficiency, as glass transmits heat more readily than a solid wall. If the windows that are mulled together have the same square footage as individual windows, you might actually see a small decrease in your electric bills, as mulled windows let in more natural light that can reduce interior lighting costs.
