Vinyl windows are typically thicker, lighter, and far more attractive than aluminum windows. They come in lots of different finishes and are highly resistant to scratching, cracking and marring. One of the most popular alternative to actual wood frames is the wood-grain finish on the vinyl windows. Not only does it look like actual wood, it never chips, dents, scratches and never needs to be painted.

If you think about it, over ¼ of your house is made of
windows. If you are looking to beautify
your home, increase the overall value of your home, and are looking to reduce
the noise from the outside world, Vinyl Windows are your solution.
Vinyl windows do not corrode over time. Aluminum windows over time will corrode as the steel or zinc fasteners may react with the aluminum causing ugly corrosion. In addition to that, aluminum windows can dent, pit and fade over time due to the elements of nature. Wind, rain and the relentless effects of the sun will pay their toll upon your aluminum windows!
When it comes to maintenance, Vinyl Windows requires less upkeep
than traditional aluminum or wood windows.
There is absolutely no need to repaint them as they are the same color
throughout the vinyl. Look at them as an
old traditional vinyl record. If you
snap the record in half and look at it from any perspective, it has the same
color throughout the vinyl material.
Since Aluminum Windows consist of moving parts with metal
against metal, they must be lubricated regularly. If you paint them, as do most homeowners,
they will require regular attention and maintenance.
When it comes to Energy Efficiency & Thermal Performance, Vinyl Windows are far superior to Aluminum windows.
They are designed to
provide the industry’s best energy efficiency!
Aluminum windows allow unwanted heat and cold from the outside into your room acting much like a radiator. This heat transfer action is very characteristic of aluminum windows and causes condensation between the window and the wall resulting in rot, mildew and mold!!
To combat rot, condensation, mildew, and mold in aluminum windows, the installer may use Thermal breaks to increase the windows’ energy efficiency. Not only does this greatly add to the overall cost of the aluminum windows, but it is not a 100% guaranteed fix.
What is
High-performance glass?
At Universal Windows Direct,
we offer a triple-pane window for added savings, impact-resistant windows for
areas of extreme conditions, or windows with shades built between the glass for
a touch of modern living. Although they
are more expensive than the double-pane windows, the added benefits may be
worth the extra cost. The Texas heat
alone can be the number one reason alone for buying high-performance glass
vinyl windows!!
Typically, the two most important
factors when considering purchasing these high-performance glass windows is the
installation and the type of window that you choose. Installation prices as well as the quality of the window

the window. Universal

prices and come with our standard warranty.
