WHY REPLACE OLD WINDOWS? The Learning Center < back to list of questions about replacing windows Yes, if you’ve made the decision to replace your windows, you may want to consider additional work at the same time to make your home more attractive and functional. In many cases, you can take the opportunity to do more than a simple replacement. Why not enhance your home’s look from the inside and out, and improve your overall energy efficiency? Two windows side-by-side, called a mulled unit, can be replaced with a single picture window that frames a stunning view or opens the room to more light. You can also enlarge an opening to add more windows or convert a window opening into a door. The addition of a bay or bow window can change the exterior architecture of your home, while dramatically opening up the room where it is located. Many homes were built with windows that have simple plaster or drywall returns. While you are replacing the windows, you may want to consider adding wood casing or sills to enhance the appearance of the window.     2.
