Replacement Windows is a general term for new windows, installed to replace old or less energy efficient windows. Often purchased upon the remodeling or acquisition of a home, Replacement windows come in a variety of materials, styles and sizes. Sometimes windows are replaced for decoration and design but most often they are replaced for energy saving reasons.
