About Replacement Windows
Replacement windows are made to go right into your home, replacing the old windows you currently have. The term pre-hung means they are already installed inside the frames. So the entire window, including frame, is delivered to you. This saves you from matching up windows to existing frames in your home, which can lead to drafts and other problems. However, it means you need to remove the old frames and windows together.
Finding Discounts
Pre-hung replacement windows are sold by hundreds of companies all across the country. Many window wholesalers specialize in pre-hung, framed windows and have a huge selection. They get some of their merchandise from overstocks or overbuilds. They will offer great deals on windows and often handle the shipping, too. Even large home centers like Lowe's will offer decent deals as well.
Alternate Ways to Save
Once you find a few deals, continue to shop around. Check with home contractors, builders and other smaller home stores that sell a lot of products to builders. Sometimes they will offer specials when they have too much inventory.
Choosing the Right Type
Make a wise decision, one not just based on price! Your windows are supposed to last, so buying cheap might cost you more down the road. Make sure your windows fit your existing home, and check into the energy rating of the window glass, frames and molding. All three contribute to the overall energy efficiency of the window. Remember, a cheaper window could be drafty, which means you'll spend more on heating costs.
