The dog days of summer might have you cranking the AC, but if your home is drafty or your energy bills have been creeping up, now’s the time to think ahead—especially with Northeast winters around the corner.
The Hidden Problem:
Most homes in our region are decades old—many still have original single-pane or outdated wood windows that leak air and money year-round.
By the time fall hits, most reliable contractors are fully booked, and winter energy bills start rising fast.
Why August is the Sweet Spot:
Faster Scheduling:
Beat the fall rush and secure your contractor now—before their calendars fill up.
Better Weather for Install:
Milder temps make for easier, cleaner installs—no snow or sleet to worry about.
Start Saving This Winter:
ENERGY STAR®-rated vinyl windows can cut your heating costs and keep your home cozy.
Qualify for Energy Rebates & Tax Credits:
Homeowners may be eligible for up to $600 in federal tax credits or state-level incentives just by upgrading to high-efficiency windows.
How to Know It’s Time to Replace:
Ask yourself:
✔ Do you feel drafts near your windows?
✔ Are your sills or frames showing signs of rot or damage?
✔ Is condensation forming between glass panes?
✔ Do your windows get stuck or never fully shut?
If yes to any of the above—it’s time.
What to Look for in a Replacement Window:

Look for multi-chambered vinyl frames, low-E glass, and argon gas insulation. Kasson & Keller’s Ecoshield line is built for Northeast winters and exceeds ENERGY STAR® standards.
