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.

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.

Wood Windows or Are They? Replacement Windows Kalkaska -

We just installed these windows near Traverse City. Are they wood windows or are they vinyl? Look closely. This is a vinyl window with the faux wood look. It’s hard to tell unless you get extremely close. It’s amazing what our factories can do nowadays. I have colonial cherry windows in my house and they go great with all the other wood in my house and I have a lot of it. (I would love to know how they make the wood grain.)

The great thing about vinyl windows is you never have to paint or stain them. If you insist on having wood interiors, The Window Source of Western Michigan sells clad wood windows (vinyl exteriors, wood interiors.) And like all our windows, they have a lifetime warranty for the windows and the installation. That means we believe in our products and our workmanship.
