The Cape Coral, Florida area has several unique weather challenges that make home maintenance sometimes problematic. With severe weather and hurricanes fairly common, homeowners must choose wisely when it comes to window replacements. Not only do replacement windows offer a number of improvements related to energy efficiency, many of the windows offered by companies like SMA Exteriors also offer additional protection from severe weather.

Benefits of Window Replacement

There are a whole host of reasons why you may want to replace your windows, a few of them include:

• Improved Energy Efficiency – New windows can not only reduce your energy bills each month, but they can also lesson the strain on your heating and cooling systems. Replacement windows are typically ENERGY STAR rated which translates into lower utility costs and a way for you to help protect the environment.
• More Equipped to Handle Severe Weather in Southwest Florida – Newer building codes in Southwest Florida call for more secure windows than are required in other parts of the country. This is to help reduce problems during severe winds and storms and it’s why you may hear people refer to these types of windows as ‘hurricane windows’. At SMA Exteriors we install replacement windows that are manufactured for this region which will ensure they provide long-lasting comfort and convenience for you and your family.
• Easier to Clean –Replacement windows are much easier to clean compared to traditional wood windows. Most replacement windows can be opened and tilted from the inside to allow for easy access and cleaning.
• Low Maintenance – Replacement windows are typically made from vinyl and are long lasting and do not require painting. In addition, they’re typically very resistant to rotting unlike wooden window frames.
• Noise Reduction – Window technology has improved dramatically over the past decade. Because of this improved technology, replacement windows offer superior noise reduction compared to older, single or even double pane wood windows.
