What advantages do vinyl windows have over aluminum?
The fact is, if your existing windows are made of aluminum or steel frames, you are losing most of your energy through the frame. Metal frames act like a magnet, drawing heat and moisture to your glass and window sill, loosing energy and in some cases leaving mold and mildew to clean up.

What causes window condensation to always start near the edge of the glass?
The fact is, at the edge of most insulated glass units, the glass is physically connected by a metal spacer which gives the unit its structural stability. But the metal connection also permits heat loss by conduction, so much that current glass edges can lose energy at a rate 120% greater than the center of the glass.
That is why Advanced Window Products chooses to use a Warm Edge Technology known as Super Spacer® because it virtually eliminates condensation, as well as increases the seal of the glass unit five times more than a metal-sealed unit.

Why should I order custom-fit windows for my home?
Because all window openings vary in measurement (due to settling or unsquare window openings). Advanced Window Products custom makes each window to insure a precise fit. Call for a free in-home estimate 1-800-246-9355 (local 801-505-9622).

Why are most windows made with single-strength glass instead of double-strength?
The simple fact is cost! Most windows typically used in the new-construction market are made to cut costs. Because glass is the most expensive part of the window, that is where the largest savings can be made, by using single-strength glass.
Advanced Window Products uses only double-strength glass for energy savings, sound reduction and sheer strength of the glass unit (kids have a harder time breaking the glass also). Call for a free in-home estimate 1-800-246-9355 (local 801-505-9622).

What are the benefits of buying my windows straight from the window manufacturer?
Three reasons actually; first is the savings you will realize by bypassing the middleman. Second, you will receive a quality installation by factory-trained installers. And third, you will receive the peace of mind of knowing that your Lifetime Guarantee is backed directly by the factory, and not by a dealer who may not have the same longevity, or who may pass the warranty responsibility on to an out-of-state factory. Call today for a free in-home estimate 1-800-246-9355 (local 801-505-9622).
