Vinyl windows greatly improve the appearance of virtually any home. More important, vinyl windows maintain their beauty for many years with only a minimum of cleaning and care.
- Vinyl windows have demonstrated several significant points of undisputed superiority. For example, unlike many materials, vinyl does not swell and shrink when exposed to extreme moisture conditions. Vinyl windows operate smoothly in any weather. Vinyl has intrinsically high insulating qualities when compared to other window materials. Vinyl does not rust, pit or corrode. Vinyl windows never need painting and are easily cleaned with a damp cloth and some mild detergent. Vinyl is comfortable to the touch in either sub-zero or tropical weather conditions.
- Vinyl's self-lubricating properties enhance its ability to slide. In addition, vinyl does not warp, twist, swell or otherwise distort its shape, so it remains easy to operate.
- Vinyl windows never have to be painted. The color is actually part of the vinyl. If your vinyl windows have become particularly dirty, or if they are subject to stubborn grime because of local conditions, a mild non-abrasive detergent solution will clean your vinyl windows to an "as-new" condition. Normally, all that is required for thorough cleaning is a damp cloth.
- Can a builder install vinyl windows in a house which was originally designed for aluminum windows?
Yes. Vinyl is the most adaptable of all window materials. In fact, most vinyl windows installed today replace windows made from either wood, aluminum, or steel.
