Window Replacement

Does your home feel dark and dreary inside? Are you constantly trying to add more light to popular gathering areas like your kitchen and family room, but nothing seems to work? Instead of trying to brighten up your space with artificial light, it is better and more effective to add more natural light to your home. However, if you have old and dull windows, they may not be conducive to adding the natural light you want or need. Fortunately, the team at American Windows Center can help. The right window replacement can do a lot to bring your Sunnyvale home back to life.

While artificial light is crucial to the world we live in, it can never offer a room what natural light can. Every home has its popular areas for family gatherings or get-togethers. These rooms are often either the kitchen and the living or family room. These areas of your home are always going to need ample amount of light. While artificial light may be sufficient, natural light does so much more to improve the mood and feeling of a room. Larger windows will allow for more natural light to enter in your kitchen making it more inviting and allowing you to entertain your guests or cook that big Thanksgiving meal. Large, open windows will also add a look of sophistication and extravagance to your kitchen or family room.

Let American Windows Center help bring your home back to life with a new window replacement. Whether you prefer vinyl windows or aluminum windows, we have what you need to bring some much needed natural light back into your home.

Keeping your windows clean can be tough. With all of the dirt, dust, wind, and rain, your windows can get really dirty, really fast. However, it always seems to be much harder to get them clean. Even cleaning the inside of your windows can be difficult. If you have kids, you know what it is like to try and scrub off those greasy handprints and crayon marks. Not to mention, the dust, dirt, and grime that makes its way into your home. So, with all of these factors working against you, how in the world are you going to keep your windows as clean and sparkly as the first day you bought them? Whether you have just had a window replacement done on your Sunnyvale home or if your windows are years old, we have a couple of tips that will help make cleaning your windows a little bit easier.

Get Rid of the Dirt
We know that using your glass cleaner to get all of those smudges and streaks off of your windows is the most satisfying part of cleaning your windows, however, before you get to spraying, it is important to clear your windows of any dirt, dust, or cobwebs. Take a look at your window sill, the frame, as well as the tracks and see if they need to be cleared out. If you get straight to the glass cleaner, you run the risk of dirt and other debris sticking to your windows, causing more work for you.

Clean Your Screens
If you have window screens, you know that they catch the majority of the dirt and dust that gets blown around outside of your windows. Just as you should clear your window sill and tracks of any dirt or debris, you should also clean your screens. This will help keep the outside of your windows cleaner longer. You can easily clean your screens without removing them by taking a vacuum to them.
