If you\u2019re in the market for new windows in Wichita, KS<\/a>, you might hear a lot of suggestions from various people. For instance, you might get recommendations from a friend who recently had a window replacement, or from some local contractors you came across. While listening to different suggestions can broaden your knowledge about your project, you can also pick up some misconceptions easily.<\/p>\n

\"Window<\/p>\n

To help with your window replacement, All States Home Improvement provides you with this list of common misconceptions about new windows. Separate fact from fiction by reviewing these four items:<\/p>\n

Myth #1: U-Factor alone can determine the energy efficiency of new windows.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fact: The National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) defines U-Factor as the amount of heat that is lost through a window. The lower the U-Factor, the more energy-efficient your window is. You still need to consider other elements, however. Apart from U-Factor, your window\u2019s visible light transmittance, solar heat gain coefficient, and air leakage are also important in identifying your window\u2019s energy efficiency.<\/p>\n

Myth #2:  Vinyl is the only frame option for replacement units.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fact: Vinyl windows are some of the most beautiful and durable window choices. In fact, at All States Home Improvement, we install top-quality vinyl windows in Wichita due to their outstanding weather resistance and stylish exterior. Just because vinyl is a popular frame material, however, doesn\u2019t mean it is the only option. For example, you can also choose a fiberglass composite because it is equally beautiful and can stand the test of time.<\/p>\n

Myth #3: Window replacement requires extensive home renovation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fact: No, it doesn\u2019t involve tearing down bricks, stucco, or other major home components. While extremely important, this project can actually be completed in just a day or two with some professional help.  All States Home Improvement is more than capable of installing new windows without disturbing your structural integrity.<\/p>\n

Myth #4: Anyone can easily install replacement windows.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fact: Window replacement requires the experience and expertise of a professional contractor, such as All States Home Improvement. Faulty installation can result in costly damage over time, as well as increase your energy consumption due to air leaks.<\/p>\n
