Daily life goes on and you don’t think too much about the details of your home. In fact, until your windows start giving you trouble, you may not think about them at all. But if you have older windows, you might want to look into the advancements that technology has brought to windows today. They can do a lot for your Corona, CA home and make a big difference in your daily life. Here are just a few window advancements that you might enjoy if you decide to move forward with replacement windows.

Material Options

Wood windows used to be standard and they are still a popular option today. They are beautiful, classic, and hard to beat when it comes to aesthetics. However innovative technology has brought some new options, like vinyl windows. Vinyl windows have been around since the 1970s, but they have grown to be the most popular material for a number of reasons. Not only are they inexpensive, but they are energy efficient, maintenance free, and lovely in appearance. If you have older wood windows, getting vinyl windows can make a world of difference in your home’s look and feel.

Window Pane Additions

Windows used to come with one pane of glass, but single pane glass is easy to break and it is so thin that air just flows right through it. If you get new windows today, you’ll get double pane glass as the standard, but there are options to go with triple pane as well. Keep in mind that every layer of glass you add is another layer between you and the outdoor elements. It’s not so much the glass that keeps out the hot California air, but rather what lies between it. Air is one option, but there are also denser inert gases that further insulate a home.

Low-E Coatings

You know all about getting a sunburn if you’ve lived in California long enough. And you know that UV rays fade things in your home too. Rather than let the furniture, flooring, pictures and more go to waste, protect them! That doesn’t mean shutting the sun out of your home at all times. It just means taking advantage of low-e coatings when you get new windows. These coatings let the natural light in, but keep the UV rays out. Nothing fades any longer!
