Aluminum Frames were widely used throughout the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s and 80’s. This was before companies understood the long term negative effects that metal frames would cause inside the window. There were two major problems; the first being the expanding and contracting of the metal around the glass itself. This expansion and contracting caused warping, cracking, and even glass to pull away from the frames themselves. Leaks are still a major problem for homeowners with old metal frames.
The second major problem with old metal frames is that they absorb all the heat from the sun, creating hotter temperatures inside. This also leads to melting seals which were only designed to withstand so much heat. Seals between metal frame double pane windows would melt and seep down onto the windows themselves. If you have old windows such as these they are not creating energy efficiency in your home which new vinyl frames do.
Unlike metal frames, vinyl frames don’t expand or contract with the sun. This means no cracking of glass, warping of frames, and no excess absorption of heat. Specifically, vinyl frames were designed for energy efficiency and durability. They keep a stable temperature in the sun, and won’t cause temperatures to rise in your home.
How do they accomplish all this? Conservation Texas Windows do this by the way the composite material is engineered. It’s able to withstand drastic fast temperature changes.
