Full Home Replacement in Los Altos, CA

Over the years, the windows had developed multiple issues:

• Significant air drafts throughout the home
• Poor insulation during both summer and winter
• Rust and corrosion on several steel frames
• Deteriorated seals between frame components
• Condensation and recurring mold growth on glass and frames
• Increased heating and cooling costs
• Reduced indoor comfort

During the winter months, the heating system ran almost continuously in an effort to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature. In the summer, the air conditioning system struggled to keep the home cool. The homeowner also spent considerable time performing mold prevention and maintenance around the aging window frames.

Our Solution

Console Home Improvements completed a full home window replacement using premium Andersen® replacement windows featuring dual-pane insulated glass with High Performance SmartSun™ Glass and HeatLock® Technology.

The new Andersen window system was selected to improve energy efficiency, indoor comfort, long-term durability, and overall home performance.

Why Andersen High Performance SmartSun™ with HeatLock® Glass?

Superior Solar Heat Control

SmartSun™ Glass helps block unwanted solar heat while still allowing natural daylight to enter the home. This helps reduce cooling demands during warmer months and improves overall comfort throughout the year.

UV Protection

SmartSun™ Glass filters up to 95% of harmful UV rays that can damage flooring, furniture, artwork, and interior finishes while still maintaining excellent natural light transmission.

Improved Energy Efficiency

HeatLock® Technology adds an additional energy-saving coating that helps reflect indoor heat back into the home, reducing heat loss and improving thermal performance.

Enhanced Year-Round Comfort

The combination of SmartSun™ and HeatLock® Technology helps keep homes cooler during hot weather and more comfortable during cooler months by improving insulation performance.

Dual-Pane Insulated Glass

The new dual-pane insulated glass units significantly outperform the original single-pane steel windows, helping reduce temperature fluctuations and improve overall comfort throughout the home.
