If you’re like most of our neighbors, you are probably enjoying the cool evening breezes and looking forward to turning off the AC to let that cool night air in while you sleep. Fall is a beautiful time of year here in New Jersey. If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your home with replacement windows and patio doors – autumn in New Jersey is a great time to get started.
Why? Here are five reasons that autumn is the season to order your new windows.
1. Get in the Holiday Spirit
The cool evening breezes are a welcome reminder of what is coming in the next few months. From ghoulish masquerade and costume parties to family gatherings around the Thanksgiving table, fall is a time for family and friends.
If you choose beautiful bay windows as part of your home renovation, you’ll have a built-in place to display your favorite holiday decorations. A quick sprinkling of fall foliage – real or artificial – on the ledge creates an eye-catching decorative touch that is easy to change for different gatherings. Simply replace your leaves with a Thanksgiving cornucopia, a ceramic Christmas scene or a Menorah and Dreidels.
If you prefer to draw attention to your mantel and not your windows during the holidays, you can easily add more seating for your guests by topping your interior bay window ledge with a comfy cushion sporting a slipcover to match the occasion. Bays and bow windows are extremely versatile replacement window styles. And, you can enjoy the change of seasons from the comfort of your easy chair or sofa.
2. Fall is a Spectacular Time of Year – Capture a Front Row Seat
Although bay windows give a spectacular panoramic view of the seasonal changes, you don’t have to miss the fall migration or the tumbling foliage if you choose to install more traditional window styles or prefer non-traditional glass. We’re very proud of our line of glass options that are virtually crystal clear – which gives you a view that is the next best thing to being outdoors. But, we realize some people want more privacy, so we also offer a line of glass options with decorative design features that allow light to come in without allowing anyone to see into your rooms.
3. Park the Umbrella at the Door
Summer is hot and usually wet here in New Jersey. As fall rolls in, we get less rain and moderate temperatures. The kids are back in school and the daytime schedule is often less hectic for parents.
All these changes create the perfect time – and weather – to schedule your replacement window installation. With cooler temperatures, you can turn down, or even turn off, the air conditioner and open the windows. Since we don’t have to dodge the raindrops, our experienced installation crews can usually get your windows installed without rain delays, too.
By the way, our installation experts are carefully screened and we only work with highly qualified technicians so, you get the benefit of a two-year warranty that covers labor and parts associated your renovation. This is twice the warranty some of our competition offers.
4. Peace of Mind & Discounts to Boot
Our 20/2/10 warranty package makes investing in your home improvement project a wise decision. There are a couple of other financial considerations that you should think about when deciding if fall is a good time for you to place your order for Renewal by Andersen of New Jersey replacement windows and patio doors.
Low Interest Financing
For one thing, banks and credit unions are still offering some very low home equity interest rates. But financial experts expect those rates to continue to go up over the next several months. It is a good thing when the economy improves, but as conditions get better, you’ll pay more for your loan products. Better to lock in a low rate than wait until the next increase.
Seasonal Promotional Discounts
We’re also offering some seasonal discounts – discounts that will help you save money on your initial investment and possibly get you a better interest rate. Before you decide whether to pay cash, finance through a local lender or work with our in-house financial consultants, ask your tax accountant if you’ll qualify for any tax incentives or deductions when you upgrade to energy-efficient replacement windows.

Fall offers so many fun things to do in our area. Whether it is school carnivals or hiking the nature trails, “better weather” makes us want to get out and do something fun. What could be more fun than saving money, making your home more comfortable and giving your house a facelift that does so much more than just look pretty?
