Switching your windows to EnergyStar rated National Vinyl windows may increase the value of your home. As mentioned before, windows preserve most of their initial value especially given their long life expectancy.

In addition, many buyers are willing to pay a premium for energy savings. Here we try to determine : What’s the ROI on energy savings if you put your house up for sale? This is what we uncovered in Vergennes:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Vergennes, your home value could increase by around $1219.72 and $1784.86 for a mid-tier or top-tier Vergennes home respectively. For comparison, the same upgrade in Burlington could yield somewhere between $1182 and $1729.66.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
