Have you ever noticed that your windows are becoming more difficult to operate? Do you feel a draft coming from them even when they’re closed? These problems can be due to a few things depending on the materials of your window. And what you probably aren’t noticing initially is that they’re costing you some serious coin over time.

If the windows feeling drafty there could be a number of reasons; seal failure, warping, age, etc… Drafty windows do not mean that the window is broken. However it is a sign that the air conditioner is cracking out extra air in an effort to keep home/rooms warmer.

Is your wooden window drafty?

Now if a window is hard to open, has trouble staying open, or can’t close, it’s not just a hassle, it’s also inviting little critters to get into places they shouldn’t be.

Let’s take a look at your average traditional wooden windows a very popular and common window. After awhile it starts to become harder and harder to close, this invites not just wear and tear on the window from the hot and sun, rainy, or snowy days, but also invites insects in – and if its a wooden window, termites in particular. Termites will eat away at the wood causing it to become weaker and weaker they tend to hollow it out making it unstable. In few cases termites will eat through the wood frames of the window and get into the interior structure of the house, making it far beyond just replacing the window. For this damage you’ll have to get a contractor to repair the structure first which would be more expensive than replacing just the windows before then.

Wooden windows aren’t the only little known expensive money vacuum

Wooden windows aren’t the only ones that can be affected by the elements of weather. Metal windows and windows that include metal gears are known for rusting significantly over short amount of years depending on where the gear or metal is located on the window. Rust on metal windows makes them more inoperable and can lead to them breaking.
