Elgin is found in both Cook and Kane County in northern Illinois. Over 100,000 people call this town home, and with so many people living here, it’s no wonder that we often get calls and e-mails from folks wanting to know what they can do to be sure that they are getting the best replacement windows for their home. We are expert window installers, and our sales team will be more than happy to talk with you in greater detail about what your options are when it comes to getting new windows installed. They will help you choose the best material, style, and so on.
 
We at Harris Exteriors & More always advise our clients that when selecting the right windows for their new home, or even old houses, they should look at the style of the windows, as well as how energy efficient they are going to be. You don’t want to get new windows installed that are going to let a lot of conditioned air from your home get out. This will cost you a fortune on your home’s heating and cooling bills each month.
Here are some tips to help you when picking out new windows for your home:
 
•    Window type: – Before settling on a certain window style, consider the type of material used to make them. We at Harris Exteriors & More have a wide range of durable and classy windows made from vinyl, wood, aluminum, and more.
•    Window design:- You want to be sure that you choose an attractive window style that complements the rest of your home’s architecture
•    Projected cost:- You need to be sure that you aren’t going with the “cheapest” company since they may also offer “cheap” quality materials and labor
•    U-value for the window: – This is the rate at which heat transfer occurs within your house. This will also influence the air ventilation in the house, so you need to have a good understanding of this before settling on a replacement window.
