Windows 101

Window shopping is easy when you know what to look for. You’ll find many styles, shapes, features and glass packages when looking for windows and doors. But deciding on the perfect choice for your home and family is simple. Just take your time and assess your needs. Consider which style will best suit your home and your family, what thermal performance features will be ideal for your climate, and which glass options will be most appropriate. After you’ve figured out the basics, have fun with glass and grid options and unique hardware choices.

Choosing Vinyl

When it comes to windows and doors, vinyl is an all-around excellent choice. Unlike wood, vinyl windows and doors will never rot or require endless repainting. And unlike aluminum, vinyl windows and doors will never pit or flake. Simonton vinyl windows and doors are made from the highest quality vinyl and require almost no maintenance. In fact, an occasional washing will keep them looking like new for years. Plus, they offer increased comfort and lower utility bills, provide headache-free operation and add value to your home. You can’t get much better than that.

• Increased Comfort Simonton’s vinyl windows and doors offer excellent thermal performance for year-round comfort and to help lower utility bills.
• Easy Operation Our windows and doors open and close easily for maximum performance with minimum effort.
• Weatherability – The premium vinyl used in Simonton windows and doors can stand up to extreme weather conditions year after year.
• Energy Efficiency Vinyl is an effective insulator. Our vinyl profiles are specially designed to work with advanced glass packages for optimum energy efficiency.
• Low Maintenance The color of the vinyl is integrated throughout, so frames and sash will never require painting, and they resist pollution, salt spray and dirt.
• Value Not only do vinyl windows and doors help to lower home utility bills, they also add value to your home.

Add a generous helping of charm

Bow windows are ideal in the kitchen or dining room. Add a banquette — or built-in bench — in the shape of the bow to create a cozy eating area and more storage.

• Maximize your view

  Wherever you add new windows, consider designing them with grilles only on the top half. This way, you can still get the divided-light look you want, without blocking your view.

• Follow the sun

  • For maximum daylight all day, add windows — or a pair of French doors — on the north side of the room.
  • Don’t be afraid of windows on the south side of a home. Today’s Low-E (low-emissivity) glass coatings reflect the sun’s heating rays away from your house.

   

Create a focal point

Special Shape windows are an easy way to add architectural interest to your room and highlight other features of your home.

Finish your basement

If you’re considering a basement renovation, you’ll need to add an egress window to create an easily accessible exit in case of fire. Egress windows are not only important for safety, they add extra light to your normally dark basement space — making it more pleasant and comfortable.An egress window is larger than a common basement window.
