Coming to the realization that it’s time to start doing research for replacement windows is something that most homeowners have to deal with at one point or another. Luckily, the windows developed today can provide a lot more bonuses that the one’s you currently have. Sure, they may not be 40 year old windows, but there have been numerous improvements even in the last 10-15 years that can help you improve your home’s energy efficiency. So what should you look for when you’re looking for energy efficient replacement windows? Here’s a little list that the team at Pella Windows and Doors in Mankato put together for you to think through:

want even better energy efficiency, there
is triple-pane glass.

you want from your replacement windows—like energy
efficiency and superior comfort—proper installation is crucial.
Even the best-performing
window or door is only as good as its installation. A Pella

year to install Pella products, will lead your installation to help make sure your products are installed the
right way.
