Why New York's Winters Make Window Quality Matter
New York has a cool humid continental climate with about 155 days at or below freezing per year, average winter lows around 8°F, and typical snowfall of 80 inches. Repeated freeze-thaw cycles are hard on window frames and seals — they expand and contract with temperature swings, which accelerates frame warping, seal failure between panes, and air leakage around the rough opening. In a climate like New York's, a drafty or failed window isn't just a comfort issue; it's a meaningful hit to heating costs every winter. Triple-pane glass and insulated frames are worth considering for Wilmington homes on exposed sides of the house.How Much Does Window Replacement Cost in Wilmington?
