Fiberglass windows are a wonderful option for homeowners who are looking for lower maintenance choices.
You can paint fiberglass if you want, but you don’t have to, and fiberglass windows certainly do not require the regular (every 2-5 years) painting that wood windows need. Price is always a factor, and fiberglass windows are more expensive than vinyl. Strength and integrity are big when it comes to fiberglass windows. Fiberglass windows maintain their integrity, staying square within the frame.
Fiberglass include its excellent energy efficiency/thermal performance, its great resale value (better as compared to vinyl), and fiberglass windows are made with about 60% glass—a recyclable material—making it “greener” than vinyl, or even wood. |
