Finding two-tone replacement windows for a reasonable price can be hard to do these days. Finding two-tone replacement windows done in a quality way that will last at a reasonable price is even harder.

At Ultra Windows we just installed a job with a high quality vinyl window with a tan exterior and a white interior to match the colors on a home in the Memorial area of Houston, TX. What window did we use? We used the Sunrise Vanguard!

Sunrise makes high quality vinyl replacement windows that perform well in tests, looks great, has a narrower frame profile so you save glass, and offer very affordable two-tone replacement windows.

Their test data competes with any other replacement windows on the market pretty much. They offer a nice glass package with double pane and double strength glass and argon and the right low e for this area to give a .21 in solar heat gain. These replacement windows have a better than typical u-value at about a .28 due to their foam filled frames and sash. Their air leakage is head and shoulders above most replacement windows with a .03 rating! So does their design pressure rating of 55-60. Compare those numbers with other replacement windows on the market and you’ll see that this is a better window than most.

The Sunrise Vanguard replacement windows also have a great look to them. They have a wood window look with contours on the front and they have a narrower frame than many vinyl windows that give these replacement windows more glass space and a better view.

And as we started off talking about – they offer two-tone replacement windows at a great price compared to many other replacement windows on the market! In addition, their vinyl is extruded in the color you choose rather than it being painted on for a much more durable, long lasting, and better looking color job.

Contact us if you are interested in hearing more. You will be well pleased!

Are you looking to replace your old aluminum windows in Houston with vinyl windows?

Are you looking for Houston vinyl windows with the best bang for the buck?

Do you want Houston vinyl windows that will last while also increasing your energy efficiency?

Of course you are…isn’t everyone? The problem is it’s not so simple. Houston vinyl windows will have problems down the line if they aren’t built right, designed right, and engineered right. The Houston heat is no joke and will be brutal on the windows over the long haul. Not just any Houston vinyl window will hold up over time. The problem then is that to get a vinyl window in Houston that can stand up to the weather you typically will have to spend more than many budgets will allow. So what do you do? (See my post here for one idea!)

A couple things:

1) You need a company that knows what they are doing and doesn’t have one widget of a Houston vinyl window they push on everyone.

2) You need a company that installs extremely well to help your Houston vinyl window stand up over time.

3) You need a company that has sought out the best windows for this region and who has their business affairs in order so you aren’t paying 30% extra to finance their overhead and marketing costs etc.

Ultra Windows is that company! We have Houston vinyl windows that will last for you, and an installation that is second to none! Compare our products and our installation to any company in Houston and I’m confident you will not find a better window or better installation for the price.

You owe it to yourself to give us a call if you are looking for Houston vinyl windows!

Are you looking to replace your home windows?

Are you looking for home windows with the best bang for the buck?

Do you want home windows that will last while also increasing your energy efficiency?

Then it’s a no brainer right? Vinyl it is. After all, everybody is doing it right?

Not so fast! Have you considered replacing your home windows with a good thermally broken aluminum product? These days, everyone is looking at vinyl when choosing home windows. They hear it’s the most energy efficient, and it’s what get’s all the attention so they default to vinyl. At the same time, we are all on a budget and home windows aren’t cheap (ones worth buying aren’t at least…more on that in a bit) so the search for a lower cost vinyl window is on.

This is a common scenario as I meet with folks looking to replace their home windows daily. At Ultra Windows we carry many products and my goal is to help them navigate the ton of information out their in regards to home windows and to cut through the hot air so they can find the RIGHT home windows for them. Time and again I’m told ‘we want good, solid, middle of the pack home windows that will serve us well and help with energy efficiency for a competitive price’. It often leads to me asking if they’ve thought about or considered thermally broken aluminum windows and then simply informing them about that option. When looking at the objective data the choice of home windows becomes clear for many.

Vinyl home windows, at the end of the day, are plastic! If you are going to go with vinyl home windows that will last and perform for you over the long haul the last thing you want to do is start bargain shopping vinyl home windows. There are a ton of low cost, low quality, flimsy vinyl home windows out there to choose from. You can find something to fit your budget, but the little you save now will cost you much more over the long haul. The lower you go in cost on vinyl home windows the less strength, less durability, and lower lifespan of the home windows you get. All of which lead to issues down the line.

On the other hand, the thermally broken aluminum home windows will price out comparable to the middle of the road vinyl home windows and they will give you incredible strength, longevity, durability, and lifespan. Thermally broken aluminum home windows will have the same solar heat gain if quoted correctly, they’ll have a superior air leakage rating (about 5x better), and they will have a much better design pressure rating.

So call Ultra Windows before you buy your home windows. Don’t be led (forced) into one product. We’ll look at all the options and help you choose the best home windows for you.

Getting new vinyl windows is the popular choice for replacement window projects these days. It is a large project that will effect the inside and outside of you home for decades so choosing the right vinyl windows is very important. You don’t want a widget in this situation, but that seems to be what we run up against a lot in the sales process. Clients who have had other companies out that are offering one option and pushing them toward their vinyl windows.

So what do you do as a homeowner? Here at Ultra Windows we want to help you choose the right vinyl windows so you don’t regret it down the line. We’ll help you look at your budget, and the windows you have, color choices, sizes of your windows, shading, etc. to determine the right vinyl windows for you. We carry many different options so we can sell you the right vinyl windows for your home instead of pushing you into one brand.

Here in south Texas especially, the climate will punish you for making the wrong choice. You can go with the lower half of the spectrum of vinyl windows and save a little money on your purchase up front, but you will regret it down the line and pay more in the long run as you watch the heat pummel your low cost vinyl windows into submission. Low quality, cheap vinyl windows just won’t hold up to the heat. Vinyl is a plastic at the end of the day and if the vinyl windows you buy are not built to withstand the weather conditions you’ll be right back where you started. Warping and bending are not uncommon in poorly built vinyl windows that are built for low cost instead of quality.

We don’t want you to make that mistake. Our vinyl windows are chosen carefully to offer you the quality you want and need. Our vinyl windows are in the upper half of the spectrum of vinyl windows on the market…meaning our entry level windows are better than many of our competitors. From there, we go up to vinyl windows which will outperform any vinyl windows out there in terms of quality and energy efficiency, and our pricing is less than many of our competitors selling inferior products. Combine this with our premium installation system and you have everything you are looking for in your search for vinyl windows.

Take a look at our job of the week! New replacement windows in Dallas, TX. We installed thermally broken aluminum replacement windows by Don Young.

These replacement windows are single hung, with grids. Notice how this replacement window has a narrower frame than vinyl windows which saves glass space! The single hung is great on the pocket-book as well.

These thermally broken aluminum replacement windows are a great balance between strength, energy efficiency, and price. They come with a great glass package that has double strength glass, Guardian’s 5527 low solar lowE, argon gas, and a non-metal spacer. Combine that with a great air leakage rate, and the strength of aluminum and these replacement windows will perform for you and last!

The test data on these replacement windows is below:

Solar Heat Gain - .21

U-value - .42 – it’s one weak spot!

Air Leakage - .03 – WOW! About 5x less than the average vinyl window

Design Pressure Rating - 50 in the Light Commercial class

Best Vinyl Windows in the Country!

Are you looking for the best vinyl windows for your home?

We have the vinyl windows you are looking for. The Soft-Lite Elements vinyl windows are in a class by themselves, and Ultra Windows is your exclusive contractor for these windows in the greater Houston area.

Every window company claims to have the best vinyl windows. It’s just the nature of the game that is played and you as the consumer need to be able to know how to cut through all the hot air and get down to the facts.

We recommend you look at the objective test data on the windows and look at cut-aways of the windows so you can see how they are designed and constructed.

All vinyl windows should be rated by the American Architectural & Manufacturing Association (AAMA). They do un-biased third party testing of the vinyl windows including surprise visits. Without that testing, anyone claiming to have certain ratings etc. can say anything they want to say and there is nothing to back it up. So if the vinyl windows you are considering are not AAMA rated you should move on to the next window.

Look at the solar heat gain, the u-value, the air leakage, and the design pressure rating of the windows. Those four measurements will tell you a lot about the quality of build, design, and quality of materials used in your windows, and how well it will hold up over time. Vinyl windows are not all created equal and will fail if poorly made which will cost you much more in the long run.

The Soft-Lite Elements vinyl windows are robotically assembled giving them extremely tight tolerances. These vinyl windows are designed in such a way, and use materials that give this window ratings that set it apart from any of their competitors in vinyl windows. The proof is in the numbers.

The test data on these home windows is below:

Solar Heat Gain - .21 – double strength glass is standard on our windows, with argon, PPG Solarban70XL, and super spacer

U-value - .26 – you will not find a lower number with double pane glass.

Air Leakage - .01 – WOW! About 15x less than the average vinyl windows

Design Pressure Rating - 70

Compare the numbers with our competitors vinyl windows and if you get the truth you’ll see there is no comparison.

Add to this, that with Ultra Windows pricing you get these windows at a price you can afford and is less than many of our competitors and you have a win/win situation all the way around!
