When you are going through the process of choosing replacement windows for your San Diego home, you want the new windows to fit in, aesthetically speaking, with the style of your home. You want them to look like they were always a part of the house. Sleek, streamlined windows, for example, will look out of place in a traditional home, while windows with thicker frames and grids will throw off the whole look of a modern or mid-century modern home. At BM Windows, our team members are here to help you pick out the perfect windows for your home—ones that will complement its style, not detract from it. While the right fit when it comes to style is an important consideration for replacement windows, it’s just as important to get the right fit when it comes to the size of your windows. …

Why We Offer an Installation Warranty to Our San Diego Replacement Window Customers
Many of the products and services you purchase come with some sort of warranty, but as far as we know, very few people will actually read it. We get it—warranties are not exactly light reading, and most are written in “legal speak” that’s difficult for the average person to understand. When it comes to replacement windows, however, it’s important to know what’s covered in your warranty. Most replacement windows on the market come with at least a 10-year warranty, which is sufficient for many homeowners, since few people stay in their homes for longer than that nowadays. But all of the windows we sell at BM Windows come with a lifetime or a double lifetime warranty. This means that your windows are covered for as long as you own your home, and in the case of a double lifetime warranty, …
Does Your San Diego Home Have Old Aluminum Windows? Here’s What You Should Know
Many San Diego homes built in the latter half of the last century have windows with aluminum frames. This was the latest trend in window technology at the time—surpassing windows with wooden frames in popularity. Today, most homes are built with windows with vinyl frames. But what if you have one of those homes with aluminum frames? Should you replace them or keep them? Here are a few things to consider: Aluminum Is a Good Conductor of Heat You might remember from your high school science class that metals, including aluminum, tend to be good conductors of heat, meaning, they encourage heat transfer. This is a positive attribute when you’re dealing with something like a drink in an aluminum can, as you can quickly cool down the liquid inside the can by placing it in a refrigerator or …
Why You Want to Hire a San Diego Replacement Window Company with Longevity
New businesses pop up in San Diego every day, and occasionally one of them is a replacement window company. We don’t mind the competition—there’s plenty of work to go around, with more than a million housing units in San Diego County. But we want to caution people who are considering hiring a replacement window company that hasn’t been around very long. It’s not that a new replacement window company will do poor work—many of them are started by people who have been in the industry for a long time and know what they’re doing. The problem is that new companies often don’t stick around for very long. This doesn’t appear to be a problem on the surface, and you’re probably thinking, “Why do I care if the replacement window company I hire goes out of business? I’m only going to replace my …
What San Diego Homeowners Need to Know About Air Infiltration as it Pertains to Replacement Windows
Most of the San Diego homeowners we meet with want the most energy-efficient windows possible (or at least the most energy-efficient windows that are within their budget). Many replacement window companies focus mainly on a window’s U-Factor and Solar Heat Gain Coefficient ratings, both of which are very important in determining the energy efficiency of a window, but they fail to mention a window’s air infiltration rating. What is Air Infiltration and Why Is it Important? Air infiltration, sometimes called air leakage, refers to the amount of air that is allowed to pass through a window. Windows with good air infiltration ratings allow very little air to move either in or out of your home through your windows, while those with poor ratings let in hot air during the summer months and cold …
