Basement Window Installation in Windsor Locks, CT
Challenge
Results of old basement windows - Cold Basement, cold floors upstairs, drafts, higher fuel and electric bills, more condensation in the summertime, less comfortable home.
Home Builders paid little attention to the energy efficiency or looks of basement windows, often choosing the cheapest option available. This leaves you with single pane glass windows with metal frames that let lots of cold air leak into your home. Single pane clear glass lets heat from your home escape by conduction through the cold glass. Metal is highly thermally conductive and a poor material for a window frame. And metal rust in damp environments near the ground. Perhaps the worst part is that these basement window leak air - lots of it, because the house has lower air pressure at the bottom and sucks cold air outside into your home, causing a cold basement and cold floors above. And let's face it these windows are ugly.

And your new efficient windows will look great!
