Replacement windows can be a large investment for homeowners, and one of the most frequently asked questions we field is “Are they worth the investment?” Don’t just take our word for it, consult with other sources as well. Remodeling Magazine publishes an annual report detailing the return on investment (ROI) for various home improvement projects. In 2014, replacement windows ranked one of the highest returns for the Northern Virginia and Maryland areas. When you sell your home you will receive up to 96% return on your window investment. What is difficult to really measure is the return you will enjoy while you still live in the home for increased beauty, comfort and energy efficiency. Below, you’ll read a note from one of our WoW-ed customers that addresses the value they realized from their investment in replacement windows while living in the home.
Wow Team,
You may not remember me, but you and your crew installed 20 Okna windows about a year and a half ago in our house. Everything fit and worked great, but our first winter was hard to judge the energy savings since we had just converted from propane to natural gas. The first summer saw higher than normal temperatures, but our electric bill was considerably lower than previous years. The highest monthly gas bill we saw from Sept 2013 to November 2013 was $36. This morning I woke up to a 3* F outside temperature. The few windows that had not been replaced, and were the STARMARKS (3 bathroom thermo pane and 3 door windows) had ~1-2 inches of ice at the bottom. Looking at the Okna windows, I found no ice and not even condensation! As an engineer, I’m very impressed. I can’t wait to see our December and January gas bills to see the savings.
I just wanted to drop you a line while I was thinking about it and say thank you for your product and services. I’ve dropped your name to many friends and will absolutely sing your praises for the service and products after this winter.
Thanks again,
DG and SG
