Windows

Whether snow is falling or the sun is shining, the scenery is magnificent. Don't miss it. Design a room full of windows, so you can witness nature's color palette change with the seasons. When you go window shopping, here are a few things you'll want to keep in mind:

Window styles. Your windows add curb appeal and can draw attention to your home.

Beauty. Take a good look at both the inside and outside of the window. Does it provide the look you want, and the look you want your neighbors to see?

Creativity. Does the manufacturer make more than one style of window? Preview the complete line as well as the company's suggestions for combining windows. You'll want to create unique configurations and add your personal touch.

Style. Choose a window available in many different styles so you're sure to find the right option for each room. Double hung, bow, bay and casement styles offer distinctive functions and benefits.

Energy Efficiency. Check out weatherstripping, Low-E coatings and argon gas-filled options. All of these combine to make the window more energy efficient. Windows that meet strict energy codes earn an ENERGY STAR® label, which is supported by the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Energy.

Ease of Operation. Test the windows in the store and compare them to the competition. Double hung windows should be easy to tilt without struggling. Casements should crank fully open, easily and quietly.

Low Maintenance. Look for an easy-to-clean, low-maintenance construction. Your time is better spent enjoying the beauty of your windows, rather than cleaning or painting them.

Warranty. Buy from a name you know and trust. Be sure the warranty protects your windows and gives you peace of mind.
