Testing for Lead Paint: It’s the Law!

In April of 2010 The Environmental Protection Agency issued new regulations that require any contractor that disrupts more than 6 square feet of surface on a home built before 1978 be licensed and trained to comply with the new lead paint regulations that minimize dust.

To learn more specifics about these regulations go to EPA.gov , but in general if your home was built before 1978, and you are replacing your windows, the company doing the work should be either testing each window for lead paint OR be following the EPA lead safe practices when they do the work.

This is really important for a number of reasons. First if you have young children or grandchildren visiting in your home, exposure to dust from lead paint can be very serious for them. Secondly, real estate disclosures are now asking for the EPA certification for any contractors that have worked on your home if it was built before 1978.  So, if you sell your home, this will become important. Finally, we even have had customer’s neighbors’ call and check to be sure we are following EPA guidelines because they want to make certain they are not being exposed by dust from the exterior of the home.

Testing one window here and there in your home is not sufficient. Each painted surface on each window needs to be tested. Glass-Rite has an XRF lead paint tester that we use on all pre 1978 homes. The XRF tester is able to “see” through all of the old layers of paint and determine if there is lead in any of them. We furnish a written report to the homeowners before doing any work on the house. Glass-Rite includes the cost of testing and complying with the EPA regulations in our prices, so not only do you get the peace of mind that we won’t be creating toxic dust, you do not have to pay more if we discover lead paint around your windows.

In Albuquerque the older the home, the more likely the chance that we encounter lead paint.  Although, we have seen homes built in the 70’s with lead paint, and homes that are over 100 years old with no lead paint. The important thing is to test!!

French Patio Doors

 Here at Glass-Rite we carry several different Jeld-Wen catalogs of wood clad-aluminum style French Patio doors.  There is every option from standard builders’ grade French patio doors, to completely customizable premium French patio doors.  Jeld-Wen offers us several different styles including exterior colors, optional grid patterns, wood species, even hard-ware styles.  Whichever style of French patio doors you choose you will be bringing much more light into your home, which will brighten any room!  As always we at Glass-Rite offer free, no pressure on-site estimates and would be pleased to give you an estimate on your project.patio-door-swinging-custom-wood-colonial-grille.800x600f


If you are looking for French style doors, we like to inform our customers up front that vinyl is not usually an option.  Because of the weight of the glass in the swinging panels, French style doors are not built in vinyl as there is a possibility that the frame could warp.  Because of the heavy glass panels French style doors are typically built in metal, wood, or a wood clad-aluminum frame.  The wood clad-aluminum are the most popular, and is available in many wood types and color options.  The door itself has a stainable wood frame with an aluminum facing on the outside.  This is great, especially in the New Mexico climate, because it protects the outside of the door from the elements.

Tips to Prevent Birds from Crashing into Windows

We’ve all seen or heard a bird fly into a window, and while bird collisions are nothing new, the problem is increasing.  Because of widespread urbanization, trends that favor larger panes of glass in both residences and commercial construction, and more reflective coatings on glass, bird crashes are on the rise. 

            The birds are either fooled by the transparency of the glass, or they believe the reflections they see in windows (trees, sky, bushes, etc) are real, and sometimes die trying to get to them.  Unfortunately window collisions kill millions of birds every year, but there are several easy ways to prevent the crashes.

There is a wide range of commercial products available for this problem, and the DIY solutions are endless.  There are some concerns with curb-appeal, and most of the solutions out there offer a subtle way to help without making your home look ridiculous.  The American Bird Conservancy has its own line of Bird Tape available at arcbirdtape.org.  It is a translucent tape and can be used to make designs on the windows that birds can see.  Bird Screen, available atbirdscreen.com creates a barrier between birds and window glass.  CollidEscape, available at collidescape.org, is a film you apply to the outside of windows to reduce reflection. 

            Options for the do-it-yourselfer’s out there are practically infinite.  Hanging virtually anything – ribbons, string, small branches, or any kind of decoration or decal – in front of the windows will work.  The unobtrusive netting used to protect fruit trees is a great option.  With washable paint like Tempera paints or even soap, you can use stencils to make a design on the glass, or even let your kids have at it.  The designs help break up the reflections of trees and plants that birds fly toward believing are real.

            The problem is preventable, and not every window needs to be made bird-safe, nor do all windows need the same remedy.  At Glass-Rite we take pride in our spotless glass but we also want to be environmentally friendly.  We hope this helps out those of you who have this problem!  To see the different types of glass we put in our energy efficient windows please stop by our shop and showroom and we’ll be happy to give you a tour!

2016 Cost versus Value study

Each year Remodeling Magazine publishes a study that looks at what a variety of home improvements cost and also how much value they add to your home. Replacing the windows in your home always ranks high in this study and 2016 is no exception.  In fact, replacing the windows in your home with new vinyl windows is the third highest ranking project that you can take on.

The study shows that in Albuquerque 82.3 % of the money you spend on new vinyl windows for your home is recouped through increased value. When you consider the fact that you will also be making your home more efficient and comfortable (saving 15-20% on your utility bills), window replacement is quite a bargain!

What is even better when you are shopping for windows with Glass-Rite is that the study projects the cost of 15- 3 foot by 5 foot windows to be replaced in Albuquerque at $14,388. That assumes an average cost per window of about $960 each installed. That is WAY above what Glass-Rite charges for a 3 x 5 Energy Quest window installed. That means that as a home owner you’ll likely get an even higher percent of cost recouped!

Other high ranking improvements are Entry door replacement at 92.8% of cost recouped and a minor kitchen remodel at 85.4% of the cost of the improvement being recouped by adding to the value of your home. To look at the entire study go to www.costvsvalue.com

Patterned or Obscure Glass

We all know what someone means when they say “like bathroom glass”, right? Glass in bathroom windows is typically patterned or finished in a way that makes it less see-through, or more “obscure”, than regular glass. Obscure glass comes in a range of different patterns. A great feature of Obscure glass is that you can use it to obscure the view through a window and still use it with Low-E glass. That means you get the look that you want and all the benefits of great insulation from heat and UV. Some popular patterns include what we call P62 (which is a pretty basic bathroom glass), Rain, Glue-Chip, and    Reed. You can certainly use patterned glass anywhere in the house where you might want less visibility. Obscure patterns are designed to block the view through a window but still let in a lot of light. Come down to our shop and showroom to see what we have available, or give us a callto set up a free, no pressure, on site visit for a quote on your windows.

Safety Glass for Homes

Safety Glazing
Building codes can vary somewhat on where safety glazing is required and how the local inspectors interpret the requirements, so check locally! What you see below are just generalized interpretations of the codes. Safety glazing requirements are to make sure that glass or windows that are installed in “hazardous locations” are less likely to cause injury.

What is safety glazing?

Generally there are two types of safety glass that are used in windows; tempered glass and laminated glass. Tempered glass has been heated and then cooled quickly in such a manner that it becomes 4 times stronger than regular glass but also, when it does break, it breaks into small pieces that are less likely to cause injury. Laminated glass is the other type of safety glass; the windshield of your car is a good example of this type of glass. Regular laminated glass is no stronger than other types of glass, but it is made up of two pieces of glass with a clear plastic interlayer between them. When laminated glass breaks, the interlayer holds the pieces together so the risk of injury is low. Yes, it is possible (but expensive), to get laminated glass made with tempered glass.

Usually tempered glass will have a small semitransparent stamp in the corner from the fabricator identifying it as tempered. Laminated glass may or may not have a similar stamp depending on the fabricator.

What qualifies as a hazardous location?

Well besides places like battlefields and coal mines, hazardous locations are places where it would be easy to fall into a window and get hurt.
1. All glass in and around shower and tub enclosures are required (any glass less than 60” from the standing surface of a tub or shower) to have safety glazing so that if you slip on a wet floor and fall into a window you won’t get cut badly.
2. Another hazardous location is around doors. In general, any glass in a door, or glass within a 24” arc of a door, is required to be safety glass. The exception is if it is more than 60” above the floor; so a window above a door (a transom), often does not need to be safety glazed.
3. If a window is less than 18” above the “walking surface” and more than 9 square feet in size it needs to be safety glazed.
4. Windows in stairways generally need to have safety glass in them when the bottom of the window is less than 36″ above the stairway or landing.
5. Non window applications and locations considered hazardous and requiring safety glass are glass guards and railings, glass in skylights, or any overhead roof or sloped wall.

Again, check your local building codes for specifics on all of these or have a look at
http://publicecodes.cyberregs.com/icod/ibc/2009/icod_ibc_2009_24_sec006_par001.htm

Safety glass is often used in conjunction with low-e glass so you get your efficiency and your protection.  For more information on glass, or to see what we offer, please call our offices or stop by our shop and showroom for a hands-on look.  If you would like a consultation on the windows in your home please contact us for a free, no pressure estimate.

INSTALLING REPLACEMENT WINDOWS AND PATIO DOORS IN SOCORRO, NM

Socorro has a long and rich history dating back to the late 1500’s when Spanish soldiers set up camp there, and were helped by the Piro Indians of the pueblo of Teypana. Because of the hospitality of the Piro tribe the Spanish renamed the pueblo to Socorro, which means help or aide.

The first Catholic mission in the area was opened around 1626. At the same time the first mines in the Socorro mountains was also opened. Over the next 250 years or so, the area was inhabited by different people until it became a territory of the United States in 1850.

Today Socorro is bustling city of approx 9,000 people about an hours drive from Albuquerque. Adjacent to the Rio Grande, the landscape is dominated by the Rio Grande Rift and several extinct volcanoes. This gives  the entire community a dramatic and very pretty skyline.

We think Socorro is a great place to make a home. Big enough to serve its citizens and small enough to offer a community of neighbors.

What Makes a Good Window?

When shopping for replacement windows, the buyer really is spoiled for choice. There’s a lot of stuff out there! We know it can be hard to make a decision, especially when you’re not entirely sure what you should be looking for, and what you should avoid. The following are some key points to help you make an informed decision on your new windows.

• The Frame: You want to look for a good strong frame. The rigidity of a windows very important to the over-all unit. A window that flexes too much will eventually have seal failure and you will be back at square one. However a super rigid frame is not always the best; you also want to understand how the window is made. Windows that are mechanically fastened (screwed together) have more possibility to flex than a welded window. So even though fiber-glass as a material is very strong, it may be weak at the joints. Vinyl window frames are welded to make one uni-body frame. If you do go with vinyl, look for a strengthening insert wherever the lock mechanism is. Windows with a strong insert in the meeting rail will have less opportunity to sag or lose their shape.

• Air Infiltration / Weather-stripping: Air infiltration ratings are very low on vinyl windows because they have welded corners. On any type of window you want to look at the weather-stripping. The strip is usually felt, fiberglass, or in crank operated windows it can be rubber. The strip acts as a barrier for air and dust, and is an important part of a window. Windows that have two weather strips will block more from the outside than a window with just one layer. Windows that are triple and quadruple weather-stripped are even more effective against blocking air and dust. You want to have at least two layers of protection around any operable part of the window.

• The Glass: The glass in a window directly affects how well it performs. You may get the most efficient frame available but if it has clear glass without a protective coating, you will not have an efficient window. Low-E glasshas a film applied to it to block harsh UV rays, radiant heat, and direct heat from sunshine. There are a lot of different types of Low-E, and a lot of choices out there. Soft-coat Low-E glass is the most efficient and you do not have to worry about the coating as it will be on the inside of the two-panes. Hard coat Low-E glass has the coating on an exterior, touchable surface, and may be harder to keep clean. There are varying degrees of strength and darkness in Low-E glass, and it usually comes down to personal preference. Having any type of Low-E is better than none at all. The thickness of the glass itself is also important. You want to look for windows that have double-strength, or 1/8th inch glass. Stronger glass has less ability to flex or droop, and therefore less opportunity to have seal failure.

• Ratings: Looking directly at the ratings will tell you exactly what you need to know, if you know what they mean! Windows are not rated with an R-Value like other construction materials. They are rated by the National Fenestration Registration Council for things specific to windows.
o U-Factor: This factor measures the heat from INSIDE a room that can’t escape. The lower the number, the better the window is at keeping heat in. This factor is especially important during winter months when you are running your heater.
o SHGC: The Solar Heat Gain Coefficient measure the amount of OUTDOOR heat than can enter a room. The lower the number, the better your window is at keeping heat out. This comes into play during the hot months, especially for windows that get direct sunlight.
o VT: Visible transmittance is a measurement of how much natural light can come into a room. A higher number here means more natural light. However windows with a very high VT number usually fall short in the other categories.
o AL: Air Leakage or Air Infiltration rates measure how much air will enter a room through the window. The lower the number, the better the window is at keeping air and dust out. This is an optional rating, and not all companies include it on their labels, or even test for it at all. At Glass-Rite we think it is an important part of the windows efficiency and it is included on all our NFRC stickers.

• Value: Last but not least, how well the window will perform in the long run. Ideally most of us are looking for something energy efficient as well as cost efficient. You want a window with excellent ratings that will last and look good for years to come. Check out a company’s warranty before you buy to see what is really covered. Also consider the personal value the windows will have to you. You’re the one who will be looking through them, so it is important to get something that you like.

We’ve taken you through what makes a good window, but what makes a window fail? From what we’ve seen over the years is that there are two common culprits.

• The insulated glass unit in a window really is all important. If you can get a window that has a glass unit sealed at your altitude that is the best way to go. Windows being shipped from sea level to our altitude will have a much higher chance to fail than units sealed here. The pressure difference will be too much, and the seal around the glass unit will break or pop, allowing moisture inside the glass unit. Thin glass that is poorly sealed with have the same problems.

• Installation matters! You may have the best window ever but if it is installed incorrectly you will have problems with it forever. If a window is not level it will not operate properly. If it is not insulated or sealed properly you will have water and air leaks. A good installation team is paramount when getting new windows. Look for a company that does not use subcontractors, but rather one who has a full time employed staff. This means that you’ll get installers that know the product they’re working with, and they will be backed by the company that sold the windows.

We hope this information was helpful. We want to give you the knowledge you’ll need to make the best decision on your new windows. If you have any questions, or want to know even more about windows, please call or visit us at our factory showroom and we’d be happy to show you around!
