Replacing your windows is an investment, and like any investment, you want it to last through the test of time. The good news is that with the right care and maintenance, high-quality windows can perform beautifully for 20 years or even more. Here are a few tips from EcoView Windows to help you get the most out of your windows:
1. Choose Quality Materials from the Start
Durability begins with your window choice. Vinyl frames, Low-E glass, and professional installation ensure your windows are built to withstand the elements for decades.
2. Keep Them Clean
Regularly wipe down the frames and glass to prevent dirt buildup that can lead to damage. A mild soap and water solution is all you need; avoid harsh chemicals.
3. Inspect and Maintain Seals
Check weatherstripping and caulking every year. If you notice cracks or gaps, replace them right away to prevent air leaks and moisture damage.
4. Open and Close with Care
Windows are meant to move smoothly. Forcing them open or shut can cause damage to the mechanisms. If you notice sticking, lubricate the tracks or call for service.
5. Schedule Professional Inspections
A quick yearly inspection ensures your windows are performing properly. Small repairs now can prevent costly replacements later.
