With Relief Windows, you can find a variety of finishes and designs to elevate your home, provide greater safety, and benefit your monthly energy usage. Here is your comprehensive guide for choosing a replacement window with our company in New Orleans.

Let’s Start With The Basics

Before you can determine the right replacement window for your home, you need to understand the basics of a window’s structure. Your window may have one, two, or even three panes of glass, and the frames themselves may be fixed or operable. Your windows may be used as accents or for function, and they come in a variety of finishes and details. Replacement windows from Relief Windows are custom made to fit the function and aesthetic of your home. A member of our team will work with you to find the perfect new windows for your home, and we will take detailed measurements to make sure you receive the highest quality in the final product.

What Type Of Window & Frame Do You Need?

As we stated earlier, the type of replacement window you choose depends on its function. Will you open these windows regularly? How much light do you want to let in? How easily will you be able to clean them? How much should your windows contribute to your safety? These are all questions to help in finding the right replacement windows for your home. After all, there’s more than just one type of window. At Relief Windows, we offer a variety of window types to fit your needs.

Energy-Efficient Impact Windows

The South is accustomed to strong winds and varying temperatures. From hurricane-force winds to hail, your windows should be able to stand up to volatile weather conditions. And with summer heat in the 80’s and 90’s or winter chills in the 30’s, why not help manage your energy usage, too? With energy-efficient impact windows, you can enjoy safety and energy regulation.

With three layers of material, these windows offer an inch of thickness to help protect your home from high-impacts or flying debris, attempted break-ins, and pests. And, these help to keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer, effectively saving money on your monthly energy bills.

Wood Windows

Wooden framed windows offer a beautiful finish, but the material must be able to withstand the elements. Relief Windows is proud to offer AuraLast® wood windows by Jeld-Wen. With numerous paint finishes, we make sure that the color of these frames matches or complements your home’s exterior perfectly. These gorgeous wooden frames are custom-built to fit your home, and they are treated to withstand water, humidity, and termites. This means that your investment will last against wood rot, pests, and water damage for years to come. And since our windows come with a 20-year warranty, you are protected against any damages that may occur.

Vinyl Windows

Vinyl window frames are made of ethylene and chlorine, blended to create Polyvinyl Chloride. This synthetic material offers a strong defense against outside conditions like humidity and moisture. Vinyl window frames also resist impact, heat, and condensation. These windows are highly durable and able to ward off peeling or fading, and they are easy to clean and maintain. If you are looking for a stress-free product with a beautiful finish, vinyl windows may be the right choice for you!
