Why Use Vinyl Windows By PGT?

A vinyl enclosure (of a screen porch) is designed to compliment any screened area by opening in pleasant weather and closing either partially or fully in inclement weather.

Some consumers are confused over the applications of vinyl versus glass windows.  Basically, here is the difference:

In most counties around the country, to install glass windows in an existing screen porch, it is necessary to restructure it into a full-fledged Arizona Room.  Generally what this involves is:

• A building permit
• Replacing existing uprights with load bearing posts
• Adding a concrete footer under the slab
• Insulating the room
• Adding electrical outlets
• Finishing the room with paneling or other similar walling

As you can see, these modifications convert your porch into an Arizona Room, which is a permanent addition, costly and raises taxes.

A vinyl enclosure, on the other hand, provides many of the advantages of glass windows, i.e. elimination of nearly all rain, cutting off rain and dirt and diminishing noise.  However, none of the above mentioned changes are necessary.  The vinyl windows are simply installed in your existing screen room without any restructuring of the room.  Also, (barring a rare exception), vinyl does not increase taxes and seldom requires a permit.

Because Eze-Breeze Sliding Panels are uniquely designed and custom-made, they offer you advantages no other brand of vinyl enclosure can match. They can be custom-sized to fit existing openings without expensive re-framing.
