Storm Window Installation & Replacement

Add an extra layer of defense to your home with storm windows

A bad storm can end up being a nightmare for any homeowner. Tornadoes and hurricanes can be devastating but even a quick, unexpected squall can send damaging debris into your home. To counter the expensive damage that storms may bring to your property, you can consider having storm windows installed. Storm windows can be added to the exterior or the interior of your windows to help defend your property against the destruction of mother nature. Because they can be added over preexisting windows, you don’t have to worry about suffering the cost of fully replacing all your windows just to add protection. It is important to consult a window contractor about storm windows so that they can be properly sized to fit your home’s windows.

Should you keep storm windows on all year?

Bad weather can happen at any time, but storm windows don’t just protect against the weather. Storm windows come in different materials, including glass and plastic, so they have extra advantages to be installed. When you double up your windows, you actually help insulate your home. Storm windows help protect against drafts and air leaks, so having them up in the winter can actually keep your home warm and comfortable. Also, an additional panel of glass can reduce outside noise pollution. If you live in a noisy area, you will notice that your home is quieter with storm windows. So, even though most storm windows can be added and removed with ease, there are many reasons for keeping them up. Consult your local storm window installer for more information.
