Vinyl Windows vs. Wood or Aluminum Windows

Vinyl is a better insulator than wood or aluminum. It doesn’t conduct heat or cold like aluminum – a major source of lost heating/cooling energy. And, it doesn’t swell and shrink like wood when temperatures change. It never needs painting and will not show scratches, unlike aluminum or wood windows.

Today, over 75% of replacement windows are vinyl. But just because a window is made of vinyl doesn’t mean it is a superior product. The design, engineering and manufacturing of the window all help to distinguish a poor window from a superior window.
