How Installing Energy-Efficient Windows in Newark Saves You Money

Energy-efficient windows can offer benefits in more than one way. Here are a few reasons you may want to think about making the switch:

• Protect your valuables from fading: When you switch to energy-efficient windows that have low-emissivity coatings, your floors, carpets and furniture will fade less due to their ability to filter out damaging UV rays.
• Reduce your carbon footprint: You can reduce your indirect greenhouse gas emissions by about 12% when you install Energy Star certified windows. In Newark, that’s about 525 pounds per year on average.
• Save on energy bills: The Department of Energy estimates that heat gained or lost through windows makes up around 25-30% of household energy use. Installing energy-efficient windows can help decrease that number, which helps you save some money on your bills.
• Protect your investment: If your home is on the older side, your windows are most likely in need of replacement. Upgrading your windows can make your home more comfortable and also help increase the value of your home if you decide to sell.

Estimated Cost of Window Replacement in Newark

When considering window installation, each company provides varying services and costs. Let’s go over some typical costs and services.

How Much Do New Windows Cost?

Generally, homeowners in Newark can expect that most replacement window installations will cost between $250 and $1,200, with the average cost sitting at around $600. Costs will vary significantly based on the quality of your products, the number of windows you need, the current condition of your home and your location. A lot of window companies also offer replacement door installations and other add-ons like baths, shutters, coating and more. Additional services will increase your overall project costs.

It’s also worth bearing in mind that energy-efficient windows will usually cost more initially, but Energy Star predicts that switching out the windows on your Newark home translates to an average energy savings of $236 to $319 a year for single-pane window replacement, or between $87 to $126 per year for double-pane windows. The amount of money you’ll save by switching to energy-efficient windows varies based on your local climate, energy rates and other factors unique to your home.

What Services do Window Installers Offer?

Generally, there are two types of window replacement services you can get: full-frame and pocket installations.

Full-frame installations involve replacing the total window, including the frame, trim and sill. Full-frame installations are necessary when you want a new style or your window has noticeable rot. These installations are more involved and will increase the total cost. Pocket installations (or retrofits) entail replacing a window within its existing frame, which makes pocket installations take less time and therefore cost less. But, if the frame has any rot or deterioration, you should opt for a full-frame installation instead.

Your window installation company can advise you on the best type for your project. In Newark, the choice will mostly be based on how much damage there is currently and how old your existing frames are.

How We Choose the Best Window Installers in Newark

EcoWatch differs from most reviewers since we look at these companies through a sustainability lens. We’ve reviewed the top window installers in Newark mainly based on their energy efficient offerings, as the most sustainable option also benefits homeowners in many ways. Energy Star certified windows have been shown to reduce your energy bills by hundreds of dollars. Along with energy efficiency, our rating methodology is based on the following factors:

Service Area

Because this is a guide for Newark, we gave more points to companies that provide services to the city. There are certainly reputable providers that didn’t make the list because of the low odds that they would serve the average homeowner in Newark.

Work Quality

When selecting new windows, the quality and breadth of services often plays just as important of a role in overall efficiency and performance as the brand of window you choose. We do give window installers more points if they offer high-quality products, but we also consider workmanship as reflected in customer feedback.

Customer Reviews

We analyzed patterns in recent online reviews to find the companies with the highest rates of customer satisfaction, weighted by sample size. Customer satisfaction might be the factor we place the most value on, as it reflects the quality of services across nearly every category, including quality of installation, quality of parts, professionalism, cost, warranty and more.

Cost

This one is a give-and-take: as with most services, cheap window installers won’t always provide the most quality service. Still, we want to make sure we’re highlighting companies that offer a variety of price and financing options so they’re accessible to most homeowners.

Warranty

As discussed previously, windows are a serious investment, so you’ll want to be certain that investment is protected. Window installation companies that offer lengthy warranties for products, parts and installation (aka workmanship) rank higher with EcoWatch.

Years of Experience

Due to Newark’s climate, homeowners need to be wary of low efficiency, rot and water damage. We factored in local experience to reflect the ability of Newark window companies to prepare homes for the climate. If a company has less than 10 years of experience, it loses points in this category.
