Just saw a local news segment talking about more homeowners switching to aluminum window frames lately. Supposedly they're durable, lightweight, and pretty sleek looking, but some folks mentioned issues with insulation and condensation. Anyone here actually tried them out? Curious if they're really all that great or just trendy marketing stuff.
I've installed aluminum frames for a few clients, and yeah, they're definitely sleek and sturdy. But honestly, insulation can be a bit hit or miss depending on your climate. Had one homeowner complain about condensation buildup in winter—ended up having to add thermal breaks to fix it. They're great if you're after that modern look, but if energy efficiency is your top priority, might wanna weigh other options too. Anyone here tried fiberglass frames? Curious how they stack up...
