Strong and durable. Easy to maintain. Sleek and stylish. Aluminum windows are always a popular choice. In fact, they’re a favorite of many architects due to their clean, modern style and wide range of design options. Aluminum windows are much stronger than vinyl windows, and they won’t rot like wood. They complement both modern and traditional home designs, and they’re engineered for first-rate functionality. Are they the perfect option for your home? The experts at American Window Company can help you decide.
The Benefits of Thermal Breaks
As you explore our selection of aluminum windows, you may come across the term thermally broken. What does this mean, and why should you consider thermally broken aluminum windows?
Well, metal conducts more heat than vinyl or wood, which means that aluminum windows are more likely to transfer heat from the exterior to the interior of your home. So if your city experiences blazing heat in the summertime, you may wish to explore thermally broken aluminum windows. These windows are constructed with a high-density polyurethane barrier between the inside and outside window frames, which provides insulation and helps prevent the transfer of thermal energy. This will make your home more comfortable, reduce your HVAC’s workload, and lower your electricity bills. Thermally broken aluminum windows also prevent the condensation that sometimes occurs in lower quality aluminum windows.
To better understand the thermal breaks in a window you’re considering, ask about the number of thermal breaks in the window, where the breaks are located (jambs, heads, sills, sashes, etc.), and whether there are breaks in alignment.
American Window Company offers thermally broken windows and doors from trusted manufacturers like All Weather Architectural, NuVista, and Milgard.
Sleek & Versatile Aesthetics
What good is a beautiful window if it doesn’t function as it should? Using advanced engineering and high-quality materials, manufacturers are able to produce aluminum windows that have a narrow, sleek profile and yet don’t compromise on performance. They’re slimmer than vinyl windows, and they can be painted to the exact color you prefer. Plus, because aluminum is easily manipulated, it can be adjusted to fit windows with unusual shapes.
Streamlined Strength
Despite being narrow and lightweight, aluminum window frames are strong and durable. They typically last longer than vinyl options, and their structural integrity makes them an ideal option for larger windows. They also have a higher degree of impact resistance, so they’re able to stand up to harsh weather conditions.
