Is it time to replace your home’s windows?Looking for a home improve-

ment project that is both a short-and long-term investment? Oneeasy upgrade that can help yousave money on your energy billstoday, as well as increase yourhome’s value in the future, is toreplace your windows.

But how do you know it’stime to give your current win-dows the boot? An annual per-formance check is good practice,say experts.

“Virtually every buildingcomponent in a home needs tobe replaced at some point, andwindows are no exception,” saysMatt Minerd of Simonton Win-dows, a leading vinyl windowand patio door manufacturer.

With that in mind, Minerd isoffering some do-it-yourself tipsto discover how well your cur-rent windows and patio doorsare functioning:

• Examine the inside of yourwindows and patio doors for hotand cold “drafty” spots or areas.This indicates air infiltration,which can lead to reduced ener-gy efficiency.

• Check every window for ad-equate weatherstripping andcaulking around the units,which help eliminate air infiltra-tion and ensure a weather tight,secure seal.

• Look for “burnt out” or fad-ed areas on your furnishings andcarpeting. This could indicatethat harmful, damaging UV rays

are entering your home throughwindows and glass doors. Youmay want to consider more en-ergy efficient options containingLow E, which is a special glasscoating designed to reduce heattransfer.

• If your windows no longeropen or close easily, or if theyneed to be propped open, itcould mean key componentswithin the units are damaged orneed adjustment. It could alsomean the unit needs to be re-placed entirely.

• If you have wood windows,look carefully at the frames forsigns of rotting, warped wood orother problems with the frameitself. These are an indicationthe window has exceeded its life-span.

Should your evaluation turnup one or more problem areas,and it’s time to replace your win-dows, do your homework. Whileprice is important, it shouldn’tbe a sole decision factor, as func-tionality is a critical consider-ation.

Look for low-maintenancematerials that offer energy effi-ciency. For example, vinyl is anexcellent insulator and manypeople choose low-maintenancevinyl frames with a Low E glasscoating and an Argon or Kryp-ton gas fill. These harmless gas-ses are denser than air and serveas an excellent thermal barrier.More information about energy-efficient glass options is avail-able at www.Simonton.com

When the time is right, con-sider replacing your windowsfor a home with great long- andshort-term returns on invest-ment.

Prevent drainage problems around your homeDrainage problems in and

around your home are not justan eyesore, they can cause costlydamage, health issues and “sur-prise” repair costs in the future.

“The causes of excess waterand flooding are numerous, andnearly every part of the countrycan be affected any time of year,”says Ryan Larsen, a civil engi-neer. “Luckily, you can take stepsto prevent these issues fromcropping up, as well as perma-nently solve current problems.”

Known as “Dr. Drainage” atNDS, Inc, a nationwide leader inlandscape drainage solutions,Larsen is offering timely tips forspotting and addressing homedrainage issues:

Your YardLow points can easily turn in-

to “water reservoirs,” formingmuddy puddles that can poten-tially attract pesky insects andeven destroy your lawn.

If improperly addressed, thiscan eventually cause seriousproperty damage.

You can prevent lawn drain-age and landscape drainage con-cerns by optimizing the gradingof your yard.

Additionally, consider re-placing impermeable surfaces,such as concrete, with materialsthat can absorb water, such as avegetable garden, or gravel. Acatch basin can be added to col-lect excess rainwater and irriga-tion.

Above all, it’s crucial to collectexcess water away from the areaand disperse it in a safe manner.Your best bet is to install a drain-age system.

Basements and CrawlSpaces

Rainwater runoff from your

roof or landscape soaks into theground and often collects nearyour home against basementwalls, crawl spaces, or in the soilbeneath your home’s founda-tion.

Basement and crawl spaceflooding can lead to mosquitobreeding, termite damage, dan-gerous mold and mildewgrowth, or worse, your founda-tion settling and cracking.

Damp, musty smells and wetwalls are signs that water is get-ting into your basement or crawlspace. Don’t ignore the problemor attempt a quick-and-dirty so-lution that won’t correct the sit-

uation long-term. Certain tem-porary fixes can actually makethe problem worse.

Luckily, there are do-it-your-self drainage kits available, suchas Flo-Well and EZ-Drain,which are usually better per-forming and easier to installthan a traditional, gravel drywell or French drain. However,when dealing with more com-plex drainage issues, considerhiring a contractor.

“Just be sure to check onlineratings and references to ensureyou’re going with someone qual-ified and experienced,” stressesLarsen.

Neighbor RunoffWater flows from higher to

lower ground, so drainage prob-lems are likely if your property islower than neighboring proper-ties. In general, neighbors arenot responsible for water runoffonto your property unless alter-ations to their landscape havechanged the natural flow of wa-ter. This unsuspecting threat cancause a variety of serious drain-age problems.

Larsen recommends visitingwww.ndspro.com for free re-sources and videos, product rec-ommendations, installation in-structions, and links to localhome improvement retailerswhere you can find the righttools. To speak to “Dr. Drainage,”directly, call 888-825-4716.

Ignoring standing water inand around your home won’tmake the problem disappear. Byinvesting a moderate amount oftime and money into smarthome drainage solutions, youcan help protect your propertylong-term.

Ways to update your home’s outdoor spaceslike the rooms inside it, shouldbe comfortable, attractive anddesigned for everyday living,”says Leah Drill, spokespersonfor Bed Bath & Beyond. “Don’tunderestimate the potential ofthese areas.”

Drill is offering some tips formaking your yard your favorite“room” of the house:

• Weather resistance shouldbe a top consideration whenpicking outdoor furniture. Rust-resistant steel and temperedglass are both great options.Wood furniture should be prop-erly treated to withstand the ele-ments. For covered spaces, youhave fewer limitations on mate-rials.

• Don’t sacrifice comfort orstyle for weather resistance --the two can co-exist. Use cush-ions and pillows to brightenmodern décor and add comfortand style to chairs, chaises,loungers and benches. For ex-ample, Bed Bath & Beyond’sWildwood Toss Pillows are easyto clean and are made using fab-ric that is resistant to mildew,

Are your home’s outdoorspaces a viable place to dine, re-lax and entertain? If not, consid-er making better use of your pa-tio, balcony, yard or deck by pri-oritizing this home upgrade.

“Your home’s outdoor spaces,

fading and stains.• Shade is crucial. Be sure to

create plenty of it with strategicvegetation and umbrellas.

• Make your patio or deck feelmore “homey” and add a splashof color with an outdoor rug.Check the tag to see if the rug ismade of polypropylene, whichoffers staining, fading and moldresistance. Another great featureto look out for is UV resistance.

• Don’t make your guestsleave a great party to head insideevery time they need a new bev-erage. Make your patio completewith an outdoor bar.

• Give the space a centerpiecewith a gas burning fire pit. It’s agreat place for guests to gather.
