Summer time in Orange County, CA is great for making memories! That means barbeques, softball, pastel sunrises and relaxing sunsets and you right in the middle of it all! Summer is also a perfect time to upgrade the windows in your home. The playing field for windows may look crowded, but among the options of wood, aluminum and fiberglass, vinyl windows are the ones that stand above the competition.

A quality vinyl is a well-designed window. When vinyl windows are well-designed and professionally installed, they will rank high on energy efficiency, prevent a significant amount of air leakage; and last longer than other similar types of windows!

You can count on the friendly professionals at California Window and Solar to work with you to ensure you have the right windows that meet the needs of your home. Double hung vinyl windows are among our most popular.

Differences That Count

Below are the qualities that you want to have on your double hungs. Focus on these 6 key elements.

Foam filled frame and sashes: What gives vinyl windows the edge over other alternative options in terms of energy performance is their multi-chambered construction into which the foam fill insulation is injected. This makes them more energy efficient than other window types especially wood and metal. Another product that can be incorporated into the multiple chamber construction to provide maximum energy efficiency is the stick foam.

Weather-stripping: One way to tell how much air your double hung can seal out is the amount and type of weather stripping used around the perimeters of the unit. Ideally, look for double hungs with multiple strips of weather stripping around their sashes. In addition, make sure that the type of weather stripping used can effectively withstand all types of weather conditions, temperature changes, as well as wear and tear.

Insulated Glass: To take full advantage of the energy efficiency of your double hungs, choose the right glass technology. We offer 23 different variations of insulated glass for your double hung windows to meet your energy needs at home.
