2 Renew your home with windows and doors that are Visibly Better. Corroded frames Bent, leaky sashes Missing handles Have you considered how much more you re paying for air conditioning due to old, leaky windows? Or felt the cold air seeping in during winter? Do you have cranks that no longer crank, sliding doors or windows that no longer slide, or anodized aluminum frames that really look beat? Replacing windows and doors that are outdated, defective or of inferior quality can add to your comfort, save on your energy bills and drop years off your home s appearance. Your goal may be to increase your home s livability, improve its resale value or both. In either case, installing new PGT Custom Aluminum Windows and Doors is an improvement that will really pay off. New windows give you more comfort and curb appeal.

3 Increase your home s energy efficiency. One of the greatest advantages of new PGT Windows and Doors is their construction, designed to effectively insulate your home during winter and summer. Quality design greatly reduces air infiltration. You can also choose glass options that offer additional benefits. For instance, double-paned insulating glass offers excellent U-value and reduces sound when compared to ordinary single-pane glass. And our standard insulating glass is covered by a Limited Lifetime Warranty. COMPARING GLASS OPTIONS SOLAR HEAT GAIN The lower the solar heat gain coefficient, the less heat-producing radiation is transmitted through the glass. VISIBLE LIGHT TRANSMITTANCE The higher the visible light percentage, the more daylight is admitted through the glass. PGT also offers heat-reducing tints and low-e coatings that reduce solar heat gain while protecting your furnishings, draperies and artwork from fading. They re particularly beneficial for western and southern exposures.

When a home is primarily heated, the U-Value (heat flow out of the home) is the correct rating to inquire about. SOLAR HEAT GAIN COEFFICIENT The lower the number, the less heat is going into the house. When a home is primarily air conditioned, the SHGC value is the correct rating to inquire about. VISIBLE LIGHT TRANSMITTANCE The higher the number, the brighter the light that is transmitted through the glass. UV LIGHT TRANSMITTANCE (Tuv) The lower the number, the better. It is the percentage of invisible, harmful ultraviolet light that passes through a window. UV DAMAGE WEIGHTED TRANSMITTANCE (Tdw-ISO) The lower the number, the better. It is the amount of solar energy that enters a window and can cause fading of interior furnishings. This includes all ultraviolet energy as well as the potentially damaging portion of visible light, and is the best representation of fading probability.
