Why Fiberglass?
Of all the different window types, fiberglass windows are the best performers in both efficiency and durability. They are also slightly more expensive than competing materials. Below are some of the key advantages of fiberglass.
- Unlike aluminum, or to a lesser degree wood, fiberglass simply does not conduct heat. This means that even during the bleakest of winter days a fiberglass window will never be cold to the touch or collect condensation inside. Rain or shine, fiberglass will keep more money in your pocket and reduce your impact on the environment.
- Fiberglass is the most durable window material available. After installation, fiberglass windows require almost no maintenance aside from the glass. Moreover, fiberglass windows naturally resist chemical corrosion from harmful forces like salt spray or atmospheric pollutants. Fiberglass also expands and contracts at nearly the same rate as glass which significantly lessens the likelihood of any leakage or structural instability.
- Fiberglass windows possess a narrower profile than other window types so you see more beautiful view and less window. It also increases the amount of natural light in your home. And since fiberglass windows are such incredible insulators they also deliver a higher level of sound-dampening than competing materials resulting in a more peaceful home or office.
