It is estimated that, at present, about two-thirds of the replacement windows installed on different types of buildings have vinyl profiles. This exceptional Denver window replacement popularity comes from the advantages of this type of material, which make it take precedence over more expensive alternatives.
Polyvinyl chloride was first synthesized almost 200 years ago. However, industrial production developed in the ’50s, always looking for innovative ways to enhance the qualities of this material.
Why should you choose vinyl windows?
- Strong and lightweight at the same time
This polymer is also lightweight, distinguished by hardness and resistance to mechanical and chemical factors. This makes it easy to transport and store, thus offering a relevant plus in the logistical calculations of the window manufacturers.
- Durability
Tests performed on vinyl windows have shown that carpentry retains its appearance and properties for a long time (over 40 years!).
- Easy installation
Unlike other windows, vinyl profiles can be installed more efficiently and faster. They will fit the particular characteristics of any construction. This material can be processed (cut, shaped, and welded) in a short time, thus streamlining the execution times.
Lastly, vinyl is an excellent heat and sound insulator at a competitive price. Vinyl windows can be about 25% cheaper than those made of other materials.
