Kent Replacement Windows Company
There are two types of replacement windows for your Kent Home, one type (Type 1) includes a wide structural case and will require you to remove your old windows structural cases. The other type (Type 2) involves using narrow structural cases, which usually fit in the old window jamb or structural case. Between the two types, it seems that Type 2 window replacements are easier to install because you would not need to remove the old structural cases of your old windows. However, using Type Two will definitely involve a caulking, flashing and sealing on the outside of the window as to prevent water from penetrating through improperly sealed windows. Another drawback to the Type 2 windows is that the area of visible glass and the open area of the window can be reduced since they are technically smaller than your old windows.
Given the drawbacks of using Type 2 windows, most homeowners prefer using Type 1 windows even if it would mean more trimming and sealing work on their part because using them allows you to have more viewing area and better ventilation in your Kent home. However, as most choices in your home, the decision is up to you, just be sure that in making these decisions, you consider all the pros and cons of suing a particular fixture over another.
