WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO COMPARE WINDOWS?

There is only one reliable way to compare windows and that is by asking for the NFRC* rating for each window that you are considering. NFRC labels are independently certified and rate the whole window performance by U-Factor and Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC). The lower these ratings are the better the window will perform. The priority of U-Factor versus SHGC depends on your climate. You should ignore all the sales hype and choose the best NFRC ratings for your climate at the best cost.

Does The Window Source have Energy Star windows and doors?

Yes, any window or patio door ordered with a LowE glass upgrade will qualify for the Energy Star guidelines for the climate zone where purchased. This guarantee always comes in writing on your contract specifications so you will be assured of ordering and receiving the best LowE glass that is optimized for your particular climate zone.

Are tax credits available for windows and doors?

Yes, you may be eligible to receive a 10% federal tax credit up to $200 for windows and $500 for doors that meet Energy Star guidelines. These credits had expired in 2011 but the new law, "The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012" has extended these tax credits to the end of 2013 and retroactively for 2012.

How can The Window Source be so much more affordable than other companies?

The Window Source provides you with extremely affordable prices on premium vinyl windows because of our large national buying power. also our low prices and easy purchasing process allows us to be extremely efficient and pass the savings along to you.

Is the installation as important as the window?

Yes, a window needs to be properly measured to fit the opening and allow adequate tolerance for pluming and squaring the new window. If the new window is not properly plumbed and squared it will not seal and operate properly no matter how good the quality of the new window.

FAQs

What’s the difference between casement and awning windows?

Casement windows are hinged on the side and swing open like a door, while awning windows are hinged at the top and open outward from the bottom. Both offer excellent ventilation and energy efficiency.

Can awning windows really open during rain?

Yes! Since awning windows are hinged at the top and open outward, they act like an awning to keep rain out while still allowing fresh air in, making them perfect for bathrooms and kitchens.

How far do casement and awning windows open?

Most casement windows can open up to 90 degrees or more, providing nearly 100% of the opening for ventilation. Awning windows typically open 45-90 degrees depending on the model and configuration.

Are casement and awning windows energy efficient?
Absolutely! When closed, casement and awning windows compress against their frames creating an airtight seal, making them among the most energy-efficient window styles available.

How do I clean the casement and awning windows?

The exterior glass is easily accessible from inside your home since these windows open outward. Simply crank them open and clean both sides from the comfort of your home.

We just had The Window Source install 6 new windows and a sliding door. They look fantastic! All the windows are triple pane and are very efficient and high quality. The fact that they were about 1/2 the price of the competition was a sweet bonus! Aaron and his team did a great job and showed up on time and were very professional. And no high pressure sales tactics – very refreshing. I would recommend The window Source to all my friends and family.
