San Francisco Vinyl Windows

Vinyl is a Stylish Yet Affordable Window Material

Architecture in the San Francisco Bay Area is as varied as its hilly terrain. Much of the city was rebuilt after a large earthquake in the early 20th century, and therefore contains many homes with styles from this era including Queen Anne, Gothic Revival, Tudor Revival and Shingle Style. These homes are beautiful, yet can be costly to own.

The cost of living in San Francisco is one of the highest in the nation and the city is notorious for its high real estate prices. Vinyl is an affordable, yet quality, material option to keep window replacement within the reach of bay area homeowners looking to upgrade energy efficiency of an older home without breaking the bank.

Double-Hung Vinyl Replacement Windows

Double-hung windows are a classic choice for their reliable functionality, ventilation flexibility, and timeless look. Replacing your current windows with double-hung vinyl in your bay area home will offer an updated look with added energy efficiency and soundproofing. Double-hung windows are as fitting for a Queen Anne style home as they are in a Tudor or Gothic revival -- simply choose grilles and colors to complement your style.

Vinyl Window Color Options

When thinking of vinyl windows, white is the color that typically comes to mind. However this material is available in a number of options to match a variety of exterior color schemes, including the colorful options seen on Queen Anne and Mission Revival homes common around San Francisco.

Double-Pane and Triple-Pane Windows

Single pane windows are common in older houses built before the 1970s. In Northern California and the San Francisco Bay Area, replacing the single-pane windows on an older home with new double-pane or triple-pane windows can help reduce your energy costs. With the mild climate and notorious fog, double-pane windows with insulating argon can keep Karl’s chill at bay.

Comparing Vinyl Windows

When replacing your windows, material should be one of your first considerations. Vinyl offers an affordable replacement option with very low maintenance requirements. When comparing wood vs vinyl windows, or fiberglass vs vinyl windows, consider the aesthetic gains against up-front cost, maintenance requirements and the style of your home in the city by the bay.

San Francisco Climate Recommendations

Rainy Weather

With persistent fog year-round and rain and drizzle from November through March, consider investing in moisture-resistant window materials, such as vinyl.

Low-E Protection

Keep warm in the winter by helping to reduce the heat loss from your home. Windows with panes of glass with Low-E may help keep your home insulated, blocking out the cold and helping keep the heat in.

Salty Air

In coastal climates, the glass in your patio doors is more vulnerable to corrosion from the salt in the air. The closer your home is to the water, the more susceptible you are to the effects. Consider vinyl to help maintain the integrity of your doors.
