Windows Replacement in Arizona

What You Need to Know About Windows in Arizona

The average home in Arizona consumes more energy than homes in most other states, primarily because the average monthly temperatures can hit well over 100 degrees F in the summer months.1,2 Although the cost of electricity in Arizona is lower than the national average, many homeowners still spend more than homeowners in other states, especially if their windows aren’t as energy-efficient.3 Outdated or damaged windows are less insulative, meaning your home will lose more cool air to the outside. As a result, if your home has older windows you’ll spend more on energy bills to cool your home, put more wear and tear on your air-conditioning system and waste more resources.

One of the best things you can do to improve your home’s energy efficiency in Arizona is to replace your windows with energy-efficient options. According to Energy Star, the average Arizona homeowner could save up to $366 per year in heating and cooling costs with new windows.3 The average cost of window replacement in Arizona (with each costing $600) eventually pays for itself in most cases and goes on to save more money on energy bills.

New windows bring many benefits, including:

• Keeping your living space more comfortable
• Reducing your reliance on fossil fuels
• Reducing your contribution to pollution and global warming
• Lowering your energy bills
• Reducing strain on your air-conditioning system

You can generally choose between two types of window replacement: full-frame and pocket replacement. A full-frame replacement is more costly up-front but tends to save more money over time. A pocket replacement, which you can do if your window frame is in good shape, is cheaper and the job gets done more quickly, but it has slightly less impact on your energy efficiency overall.
