hey guys Sean with American Window Concepts and today I'm going to answer a question I seen online which is why do vinyl windows get such a bad RP most people will think you know whenever you have other window installer groups I've seen a lot that you know they'll sell only uh wood or they prefer the wood Uh Wood style Windows you know aluminum style Windows things like that I'll see some of these guys will respond to questions like that and they'll say because vinyl's cheap or it yellows it causes seal failures which is not true clear the air a little bit now I have many videos that talk about the different qualities uh that you can get yourself into with vinyl windows you know there's like Builder grade style of uh vinyl windows which you know they're not going to have great uh structural Integrity they're going to have very cheap glass they're going to have cheap spacer between the two panes of glass and that's what creates a lot of the issues that you're going to see with seal failures I can understand that like the frustration would be real for me when we talk about our vinyl windows replacement vinyl windows it really is all about quality and the Blends that they're using for their vinyls the spacer that they're using between the two panes of the glass itself also the actual glass manufacturer they keep up to date on industry standards when you're talking about vinyl windows as a whole there can be a misconception of cheap and know and they'll throw that out there and um you know I'm here to say yeah you can get a cheap window but you you can also get a cheap you know um wood window you don't hear a whole lot of well that's a cheap product you know this that and the other thing but it's out there so really it just comes down to the brands that you're looking at if you want something that's going to last you a long long time and come with a full lifetime warranty that's how you know that you're going to have a window that is going to last as long as you own the house okay so in the end to wrap everything up you have very cheap vinyl windows that are out there and you could be presented with those and they could be a lot less expensive and that might be like wow I mean I could save a few thousand dollar and go this direction or you can go with a vinyl window that'll stand the test of time and you won't have any frustrations or worries for the future keep that in mind whenever you're doing window bids and are all vinyl windows created equal the answer is absolutely not always look out for the great great products all right guys make it a great day hey guys if you live in the Ventura or Long Beach area and are interested in a free in home estimate go to our website American window concepts.com and we'll reach back out to you as soon as possible if you guys find this information valuable and you want to continue to learn more about Windows and Doors subscribe to our Channel thank you so much
