2019 Replacement Window Trends
Windows are one of the first things people notice about your home from the outside. In this article, we will discuss some of the hottest up-and-coming window trends of 2019.
Energy efficiency
Energy-efficient windows have been one of the major replacement window trends in recent years. There has been tremendous innovation in this area. The windows that are available today are more energy efficient than they have ever been in the past. Double and triple-paned windows are saving homeowners money on their energy bills by keeping their homes cooler during the summer months and the warmer during the cold winter months. Not only do homeowners with energy efficient windows notice a significant decrease in their energy costs after switching to energy efficient windows, but they also enjoy other benefits like reduced noise and lower UV ray exposure. UV ray exposure can cause discoloration and fading of furniture. There are many great windows on the market, but no matter how energy efficient your new windows may be, they are worthless if installed incorrectly so make sure to hire a reputable replacement window company.
Fixed Windows
Fixed windows are non-functional windows that are installed for aesthetic purposes only. They are one of the most popular replacement window trends because they add a bright and airy feeling into any room and make it appear larger than it is. Even though these windows are non-operational, they should still be energy efficient.
Black Window frames
Black window frames are one of the hottest replacement window trends of 2019. A black frame against a white wall creates a beautiful contrast that grabs your attention without being too loud and in your face. It is a subtle addition that makes a big difference and keeps your home looking modern.
