Nothing makes a home feel less comfortable than cold drafts coming in through the windows and doors. If you've noticed that your home isn't as cozy as it used to be, it might be time to replace your doors and windows. But how can you tell if it's the doors, the windows, or both that need to be replaced? Keep reading to find out.
One of the telltale signs that you need new doors or windows is condensation. If you've been noticing water droplets forming on the glass of your windows or doors, that could mean there's a seal issue. When seals are broken, it allows for air and moisture to pass through, which can lead to all sorts of problems like rot, mold, and even insect infestations. If you notice condensation on your windows or doors, it's time to have them replaced.
Another way to tell if you need new doors or windows is by feeling for drafts. If you can feel a draft coming in around the frame of your door or window, that means there's an opening that needs to be sealed. You can test for drafts by holding a lighted candle up to the door or window; if the flame flickers, there's a draft. Once you identify where the draft is coming from, you can decide whether you need a new door, a new window, or both.
If you're not sure whether it's time to replace your doors and windows, look for these two telltale signs: condensation and drafts. If you notice either of these issues, it's time to call a contractor and get started on choosing new doors and windows for your home. With new doors and windows, you'll enjoy increased comfort and energy efficiencyโnot to mention peace of mind knowing that your home is well-sealed against the elements.
