Jeld Wen Replacement Windows
Jeld Wen Wood Windows
Jeld-Wen wood windows are the only wood windows in the industry that are made from AuraLast® wood. This is a solid pine treated with a specialized vacuum pressure process to improve the wood’s strength and durability. It provides excellent protection against water, insects (such as termites) and other decay. It also allows for a smooth and even finish when stained. These are energy efficient, come in a variety of color options and offer a limited 20 year warranty.
Jeld Wen Vinyl Windows
The company offers two different collections of vinyl options to choose from. These are some of the most popular replacements they sell, come in many design options and offer a limited warranty. Their Flat Casing Vinyl Windows have a flat 3 1/2″ trim casing and come in many window styles, including double-hung and casement windows, as well as awning windows, fixed windows and others. Their Brickmould Vinyl Windows resemble the look of wood windows and come in a variety of styles as well, including single and double hung, sliding, tilt and more.
Jeld Wen Aluminum Windows
Aluminum windows are some of the strongest types of windows available and are a great choice if you have large windows. Many commercial windows are made from aluminum due to their strength, along with their lightweight properties. These same properties make them a good choice for homeowners that have large or odd-sized windows. They are also easily painted if you decide you want to change the look of them down the road.
Jeld Wen Window Warranty
The company offers separate warranties for its wood, vinyl and aluminum products. As always, there are numerous exclusions and issues not covered by this window warranty so customers need to ALWAYS thoroughly read the entire product warranty. On the plus side, the company provides a nice clean pdf that uses fairly clear language (relative to other companies) and standard type (none of the tiny print that is meant for lawyers).
