Vinyl-clad windows offer the benefit of affordability, practicality and durability--all while adding to the aesthetic value of a home.

About Vinyl-Clad Windows

Clad windows are often designed with a traditional wood finish on the home's interior, while the outside of the frame is covered in a durable PVC product. Vinyl (PVC) requires no maintenance, holds up well under stress and comes in a variety of colors to match the trim of a home. The color that manufacturers apply to vinyl permeates the product, so scratches and wear are masked by the design. Aluminum clads, on the other hand, can be painted to match a home's trim--but the finish does not hold up as well as that of their vinyl counterparts.

Vinyl has many desirable properties. It resists rotting and damage due to moist, salty climates and can be easily molded to fit custom openings in new or existing homes. In addition, quality vinyl products reduce noise, energy use and pollution while adding aesthetic value to vintage and modern-style homes. Homeowners typically find these windows to be economical, though the costs increase depending on the interior wood species selected. Clad PVC is also used to make shutters and blinds, which further insulate a home's openings.
