  1. Do a home energy audit! An energy efficiency checkup for your home can tell you where you’re losing the most energy when it comes to heating and cooling. This audit can tell you if you’re really in the market for a total window replacement.
  2. Do your windows pose safety problems? If your windows don’t open or shut completely, it’s probably a good idea to get them replaced. Especially consider a window replacement if those windows are on an upper floor, where you might need to use them as an emergency escape route.
  3. If you’re looking for energy efficiency, do research on the window’s glass! All windows in the Energy Star program have stickers on them that display ratings by the National Fenestration Rating Council. Check these ratings to ensure that you’re investing in energy-efficient windows for your home.
