Q. Why Are Vinyl Frames Hollow? Why Aren't They Solid?
A. Vinyl frames are designed with multiple chambers in the frame to
provide thermal efficiency,rigidity and strength without excessive weight. 
A solid frame would be excessively heavy,difficult to work with, expensive
and would, actually, not perform as well as the multi-chambered designs
in today's window products.

Q. How Durable Are Vinyl Windows?  Are They Strong?
A. Vinyl windows are very durable.  There are millions of vinyl windows
installed in homes and commercial buildings, across the country and
around the world.  In the U.S., some vinyl windows have been installed
as long as 25 years and are still working well.  Many designs of today
have wind load ratings superior to wood and metal windows.

Q What Kind Of Maintenance Do Vinyl Windows Require?
A. Vinyl windows are virtually maintenance free, requiring no finishing upon installation and no periodic painting or sealing like wood or metal windows.  
They also can't rot, rust, pit or corrode like wood or metal products and are
unaffected by moisture, salt air, pollution and airborne chemicals.  If they ever
require cleaning, simply wiping with a damp cloth is sufficient to return them
to their "Factory Fresh" condition.

A. Yes, we offer financing with competitive interest rates.  We have several

Q.  I have heard the term Energy Star Rated.  Why is this important?
A. The Energy Star Program was introduced by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in 1992 as a voluntary labeling program designed to identify and promote energy-efficient products, in order to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.  Products approved by Energy Star have been approved to reduce the loss of energy.  Low energy loss means less money spent on utilties and conservation of our resources.  All of our windows are Energy Star Compliant (with Low E2 and Argon).

Q.  I am more interested in wood windows, do you install them as well?
A.  Yes.  We carry several wood windows to offer the broadest selection possible to insure we have a product that will suit every taste and style.
