Visible Damage

When you look at your home’s windows, you may spot evidence that it’s time to replace them. If you see gaps or cracks in or around the frames, that means that they’re not properly insulating your house.

Condensation between Windowpanes

When the seals in windows fail, moisture can get into spaces between the panes of glass. If you see condensation on your windows, and it doesn’t go away when you wipe the surface, that means the windows are damaged and should be replaced.

Drafts

During the winter, you may feel cold when you sit near a window, or you may notice that certain rooms or parts of rooms always seem to be colder than others. Broken seals can lead to air leakage. In the winter, heated air can escape, and cold air can enter the house. The reverse can happen in the summer.

High Utility Bills

Homeowners often begin to suspect that their windows need to be replaced when utility bills start creeping up for no apparent reason. Windows that are old and damaged don’t provide a strong seal and insulation. Air leakage forces the furnace to work harder in the winter and the air conditioner to work harder in the summer to keep living areas at a comfortable temperature. If you’re currently experiencing that problem, your bills will likely continue to rise until you replace the windows.
