Windows are an important aspect of your home. They let in light and natural breezes. They protect you from the elements and unwanted intruders. They lower your energy expenses and make a design statement in your home. It is no wonder you want the best when it comes to choosing replacement windows. And we have found the best in Milgard Windows. They offer a wide variety of styles and lines to choose from, and you are sure to find the perfect. Here are some details about their outstanding products.

Window Materials

Choosing new windows often starts with the basic material. And with Milgard, you have a few material options to choose from. These include:

Wood

This is a classic option, and for good reason. The warm wood grain adds beauty and class to any space. The material is also paintable and an excellent insulator. Wood is strong, easy to work with, and compliments any form of architecture. However, these windows do require more maintenance with regular sealing, staining, or repainting.

Fiberglass

Over the last few years, fiberglass has grown steadily in popularity. This wood alternative is strong and can securely hold larger spans of glass. It is low maintenance, paintable, and another top-notch insulator. Fiberglass also expands and contracts at the same rate as regular glass, meaning you get tighter seals. Best of all you can pair a fiberglass exterior finish with a real wood interior, getting the best of both worlds.

Vinyl

The new kid on the block so to speak, vinyl is quickly overtaking wood and aluminum in terms of popularity. These windows are made from construction grade Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC). And because Milgard manufactures its own vinyl, the compound contains no extra fillers. It is a strong, flexible material that will not warp, rot, or fade. These windows require little to no maintenance to keep them looking like new. They also provide exceptional energy efficiency. While the colors of vinyl are limited, you are sure to find a style from our seven finishing options to complement your home. Best of all, these windows come with the most affordable pricing on the market.

Aluminum

As a well-recognized and well-loved window frame option, nothing quite compares to aluminum. It is timeless and is still a popular choice for architects and homeowners alike. Why? Because they offer a slim profile and narrow sight lines. Basically, these are always beautiful windows in almost any space. Light, yet strong, we can configure these windows into a variety of shapes, sizes, and combinations. Unfortunately, the beauty comes with a cost. These window frames do not insulate as well as other materials.

Window Styles

Next, you choose the style of window based on function and design. This is where you get to have some fun! Some of the design options include:

• Awning
• Baw
• Bow
• Casement
• Double hung
• Garden window
• Horizontal slider
• Picture
• Radius
• Single Hung
