What affects the price

Replacing your windows with impact-rated glass involves a few variables that shift your final total. First, the size and number of openings in your home play the biggest role, as custom measurements require more material and labor. The style of window you choose—like single-hung, casement, or sliders—also changes the math, as does the frame material, such as vinyl versus aluminum. If you live in an area with stricter wind-load requirements, that might necessitate thicker glass or specialized hardware.

Summer heat is intense, and impact windows act as a powerful barrier against thermal transfer. By blocking solar heat gain, your air conditioning system doesn't have to work as hard, which helps keep your energy costs manageable. Getting your windows replaced now provides a cool, quiet environment inside, regardless of how high the temperature climbs outside your home.

Are storm windows a viable alternative to impact windows in Chicago?

Storm windows can offer a layer of protection, but impact windows provide a significantly higher level of defense against severe weather events common in Chicago.

For comprehensive protection against hail and high winds, impact windows are the more robust and reliable choice.
