Atlanta Window Installation

We have a few helpful tips for homeowners when they are evaluating window companies in Atlanta.  Not all window installations are created equal.  The following are some guidelines to help identify key areas of installation that can directly affect the amount of air that can pass through a window as well as overall functionality and ease of operation.

In order for a window to seal properly, it must be correctly installed in a way that allows the weather stripping in all areas of the frame and sash to make proper contact and compression while still permitting the window to function. Ideally a window should be installed perfectly plumb, level and square, but it is important not to rely entirely on exact measurements. Identifying areas where the weather stripping may not be making proper contact is also a very useful tool in diagnosing potential issues. When shopping for a good window installation contractor they should be able to provide you with accurate information.

We have been providing window installation in Atlanta for over 25 years

There is no such thing as a condensation free windows.  Even walls will sweat under high humidity.  We like to help homeowners understand condensation for their Atlanta windows.

Most everyday activities produce water vapor. A five minute shower releases about 1⁄2 pint of water vapor, cooking dinner on a gas stove can produce 21⁄2 pints of water vapor and the breathing and perspiration of a family of four can produce approximately 1⁄2 pint per hour.  Although it’s an uphill battle, there are a few things you can do to help control moisture levels in your home.  Here are some helpful tips for all Atlanta window replacement homeowners;

•  Use kitchen and bathroom exhaust fans.
•  If you have a humidifier, set it to correct outside temperature.
•  Properly vent clothes dryers, gas appliances, stoves, etc.
•  Make sure attic, basement and crawl spaces are well ventilated and free from   obstructions.
•  Don’t store firewood inside; freshly cut wood can consist of up to 45% water, while    well-seasoned firewood can have a 20-25% moisture content that can be released in your home.
•  Open a window in the bathroom.
•  Open curtains and blinds to allow more air circulation around windows
