Aluminum Replacement Windows
Aluminum
replacement windows were introduced into the marketplace prior
to vinyl replacement windows. They were really the first material
that replacement windows were made of. Though ideal for customized
replacement window design, aluminum replacement window frames
cause conductive heat loss (i.e., they have low R-values)
and produce some amounts of condensation around the window
frames. However, thermal breaks made of insulating plastic
strips placed between the inside and outside of the frame
and sash greatly improve the thermal resistance of aluminum
replacement window frames.
Aluminum
windows can be painted, unlike their vinyl window counterparts.
However, the paint job will not be as good as one from a window
frame made from wood.
