Warped Windows and How to Deal With Them

Like many homeowners, you may have had vinyl windows installed because of the benefits they can give you. They require minimal maintenance and are energy-efficient. But because of their flexibility, they tend to sag over time and can even warp, which won’t always look appealing. If you’re already looking for a much better option for your home, then consider our Fibrex® window products!

Warped Windows and How to Deal With Them

To understand how you’ll benefit more from our windows, let’s understand how ordinary vinyl windows get warped over time.

How Do Windows Get Warped?

Age can greatly affect windows’ shape and rigidity. After constant exposure to heat and extreme weather conditions, vinyl windows tend to warp, bow, or twist. This makes them drafty, which means air can leak in and out and affect your home’s energy efficiency. They can also discolor over time, and if you’re concerned about your home exterior’s appearance, you’ll find that this greatly affects its visual appeal.

Fixing Warped Windows

If your warped windows are still under warranty (which can go up to around 25 years) then you can have their vinyl frames and sash components replaced. However, some companies may choose not to honor your warranty if they find that the cause behind the warping is poor maintenance and/or mishandling of your windows. This can become difficult sometimes, and if yours are already old and drafty, consider a full window replacement instead.

Preventing Future Damage

While it’s easy to just replace your warped windows with a new set with the same material, consider other window products that are more warp-resistant. Our windows, for instance, are made using Fibrex®, which is our proprietary material and one of the most durable in the market. It has incredible longevity as well as a great warranty, making it a preferred choice by many homeowners.
