Which Window Is Best For the DC Metro Area?

Not all window materials are perfect for every environment. In the arid hot climate of the Southwest, for example, aluminum windows are the material of choice, whereas here in the Mid-Atlantic, vinyl, fiberglass and wood windows are the most popular. Some of this has to do with the region's building codes, and sometimes with the material's property. Aluminum, for example, conducts heat and cold and so not a wise choice for someone who wants to keep their home cool in the summer's scorching heat and hot during winters blustery storms.

Of course, figuring out the specific materials to use also depends on your home's architecture and your family's lifsetyle.
