    Factors to Consider When Replacing Historic Windows

    Your historic home holds years of rich history and value. That’s why when looking for a replacement window, it is important to find the closest match. There are important factors you need to consider when getting a replacement.

    Historic Windows

    Let Renewal by Andersen® of Westchester and Fairfield County discuss some of these and show how our windows can preserve the architectural style of your home.

    Window Frame Size and Shape

    You can count on us to provide you with replacement windows in Connecticut that will fit snugly in your home. We will get your window frame’s measurement and other details, such as size and shape, to ensure a perfect fit. We will then provide you with design options to match your original historical windows. For instance, we can offer you large traditional double-hung windows that come with mortise-and-tenon joinery with your choice of hardware.

    Materials and Finish

    While it may be possible to find matching characteristics in a replacement window, a change in material will still affect the design details. Fortunately, our replacement windows in CT come with our Fibrex® frame composite, which has the beauty of wood and greater strength than vinyl. This allows us to create narrow frames to imitate the appearance of your historic windows. You can also choose from an array of colors and finishes that will complement the existing design.

    Glass Characteristics

    Insulated glass is always preferable when it comes to historic window replacements as long as it does not affect other aspects. Renewal by Andersen in CT offers windows featuring High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass. This special insulated glass is 45% and 56% more energy-efficient in winter and summer ,respectively. With this feature, you can be sure to enjoy more energy savings in the years to come.

    With our careful and precise installation, you have the assurance of preserving your home’s traditional appeal. We will perform a thorough evaluation of the visual qualities of your old windows to find the best match. Our expert team has years of experience in working with any window style on all types of homes. Call us at (866) 609-5033 to replace your historic windows today.
