Window Replacement for Increased Safety

COLUMBUS – OH: Within our region of the Metropolitan Columbus, OH area, we speak with home owners about their biggest concerns with replacing windows.

While it might not be commonly considered, the inability or difficulty to open an old window may actually scare some members of the household. Imagine if you did not understand things mechanically or why a window might be stuck if shifted slightly to one side as old wooden windows sometimes do become overtime. Or even understand why a window may be able to be opened in the winter when humidity is low and not opened in the humid days of summer. It’s not an uncommon mistake for certain stronger, more mechanically inclined members of the family to think that the windows are just fine they can be opened (when they use their special trick to open it) but not all other members or even children would be able to open a tricky window in the event of a fire for example.

Replacing Windows Keeps Little Critters from Crawling in Little Gaps
A secondary factor related to windows that may be hard to open is that, especially with wooden windows, shifts in the moving parts of the window create small openings sufficient for insects to enter from the outside. So a bonus and replacing windows in an older home that has these types of problems with the old windows sticking or being somewhat misaligned is that all of these small openings are sealed and prevent entry of little critters.
