When you get\u00a0replacement windows in Carmichael, CA<\/a>, it\u2019s best to get the whole house done at once. You\u2019ll have better energy efficiency, you can match the windows with ease, and you only have to go through installation one time. However, just because you plan to do the whole house at once doesn\u2019t mean you have to do the same thing in the whole house. Consider different windows for the second level, for example, over the ground level. Here are a few things you might want to consider for your second story replacement windows.<\/p>\n

Double Hung Style<\/strong><\/p>\n

Double hung windows are a popular style for the second level of a home. Double hung style windows are classic windows that don\u2019t go off trend. But they\u2019re also a nice, safe window for the second story. If you have pets or children, it\u2019s nice to know that you can open the top half of the window and leave the bottom half closed. You can get the ventilation you want without allowing anyone to topple out the window on accident. Double hung windows are also a great option for the second story because you can easily tilt them into the home to clean them from inside. You don\u2019t have to climb on the roof or get out a ladder. Do the exterior cleaning from the inside of your home.<\/p>\n

Avoiding Upgrades<\/strong><\/p>\n

It makes sense to have certain upgrades on certain windows of the home, but maybe not all of them. On the second story, you probably have a lot of bedrooms. Perhaps you keep the blinds up there closed for most of the day because either you aren\u2019t home or you\u2019re sleeping and you want privacy. For those spaces, it doesn\u2019t really matter if you have low-E glass. Low-E coatings allow natural light through, but keep the heat out. If you keep window coverings closed, you\u2019re blocking heat and natural light anyway. You can save money, get normal windows there, and install low-E coatings on the glass on lower levels for greater benefits.<\/p>\n

Any Extra Interests<\/strong><\/p>\n

You likely want a lot of privacy upstairs, but there are some areas that also need natural light. Consider adding a few things for extra areas of interest. You could put a fogged window into the bathroom, or perhaps a skylight. You could also add a window into a dark hallway so you don\u2019t have to use the overhead light as much.<\/p>\n

These are a few things to consider when you are getting replacement windows in Carmichael, CA and you are thinking about the second story, specifically.
