Hurd windows are among
the highest quality in the business. Hurd prides itself on the craftsmanship
of Hurd window parts, as well as the energy efficiency of its products.
Hurd windows come in vinyl, wood and aluminum, and can be used for
storm window repair, in addition to initial building. They work equally
well for windows upstairs, as well as for outfitting basement windows.
A Hurd dealer can help you determine what style of window is right
for you.
Different types of Hurd window parts
The glass is
the most important window part. It lets you look outside the home,
and lets light in to provide a cheery setting in your home. Glass
can be rated to withstand high pressure. It can also be designed
to be impact resistant, providing some additional protection
in a storm. A Hurd dealer can probably help you customize your
window to fit the architecture of your home. Hurd windows offer
single and double hung windows. Also, it is possible to get casement
and awning windows, as well as sliding windows. Additionally,
Hurd manufactures windows in a range of oddly shaped windows to choose
from.
Other
window parts include sashes and frames/jambs. These are the
items that hold the glass in place. These can be made from aluminum,
vinyl or wood. Depending on the material you choose for your home,
you will have different benefits. If you choose aluminum, you will
have a very strong window. However, aluminum is a poor insulator,
easily allowing heat to escape the home and resulting in higher utility
bills. Wood is an excellent insulator, but is not as strong. It is
more prone to allow leaking, and it can crack, warp, swell or split.
Many people find that vinyl is an excellent compromise. It is energy
efficient and it is stronger than wood. It can even be made to look
like wood.
Hurd also offers special touches for windows, like pine and oak
rosettes. It is also possible to get aluminum drip cap interior casings
in pine and oak. No matter your needs, you can find the right windows
for your home with Hurd windows.
