The holiday season is about family, friends, and warmth, but that last part can be difficult to achieve if your house is still fitted with old, drafty windows and doors. You want your loved ones to be comfortable in your home, so it might be time to seal the cold out for good. To help you identify problems, Middletown’s home improvement specialists at Accurate Carpentryhave some tips on determining when it’s time for a window replacement.

Besides comfort, replacing windows and doors can also dramatically decrease your heating bills this winter – not to mention what it would do for your air conditioning costs in the summer. Some experts estimate that as much as 25% of the energy we spend on heating and cooling our homes goes right out the window…literally! Thus, several new types of energy-efficient windows that are available on the market today are specifically designed to insulate your home and help lower heating costs; in fact, installing them this winter may even qualify you for a tax credit!

Finally, new windows and doors beautify your home in a way that weather-stripping and other insulation techniques just cannot match. Attractive, professionally-installed windows will spruce up the whole exterior of your home, while creating brighter, friendlier indoor spaces with more natural light that are perfect for winter family gatherings.
