What Do You Need to Watch?
Engineering and manufacturing trends remain consistent regarding home improvement as the focus continues on making things better, more affordable, and more resource-efficient. Still, there are many trends to note as the year begins.
Trend 1: Energy Efficiency
If one trend remains consistent in replacement windows, it’s better energy efficiency. As energy costs continue to rise nationwide – especially in Minnesota—you need windows that can help stem the tide. Triple-pane glass, Low-E coatings, and argon/krypton gas fills ensure your windows are efficient and will reduce overall heat transfer.
Of course, don’t forget about ENERGY STAR® in this process. This U.S. government program has helped homeowners understand overall energy efficiency for decades and looks to continue its run.
Trend 2: Smart Windows and Technology Integration
The home of tomorrow is here today! Remember when you were a kid, and The Jetsons had the most incredible house on television? You can have that now, too – to an extent. Smart home technology has changed the game regarding making your home more customized.
New smart home-enabled windows can adjust the window’s tint and create greater privacy control. They can also integrate better with your home’s security and automation systems for a more secure house.
Trend 3: Black Frames and Bold Designs
There are dozens of window styles available, but the rise of bold aesthetics has led homeowners to demand a more sleek, modern look for their homes. These industrial and contemporary designs are exceptionally popular now, so are you ready to join the crowd?
Luckily, many of these styles fit existing architecture, from modern homes to farmhouse styles. Of course, there are many options for custom shapes and larger windows to maximize natural light.
Trend 4: Sustainability and Eco-Friendly
More homeowners are focusing on materials that have been re-sourced from other recycled materials. Recycled glass and composite frames have embraced this trend so homeowners can feel like they are making a difference in the environment.
Fiberglass windows, for example, offer plenty of durability and are manufactured using eco-conscious materials. Vinyl windows are another useful option, helping lower homeowners’ energy costs.
Trend 5: Noise-Reduction
The outside world is noisy, so window manufacturers have come in clutch to help homeowners reduce noise. There is a rising interest in soundproofing windows to create quieter indoor environments.
Dual-pane and laminated glass designs, in particular, help reduce outside noise. These windows are ideal for urban and suburban environments and homeowners seeking peace and quiet. Noise reduction can also lower your stress levels, and what better way to do that than through new windows?
