White Double-Hung Windows Enhance Traditional Style in New Richmond Home

In Richmond, Virginia, a city with deep historical roots, new construction homes blend traditional architectural styles with new amenities and features. When the builders of this home wanted low-maintenance windows with modern functionality, our team recommended Encompass by Pella vinyl double-hung windows. These windows offer both potential energy savings and minimal upkeep, making them ideal for Virginia homeowners.

Designed to exceed all ENERGY STAR® standards, these windows ensure year-round comfort with excellent ventilation. Energy-efficient windows help eliminate drafts and leaks, easing the work of the home’s HVAC system. The dual sashes allow for increased airflow, reducing the need for constant use of heating or cooling systems.

Additionally, these double-hung windows remain durable in Virginia’s varying weather conditions. Their protective features minimize unwanted breezes and cracks, ensuring comfort throughout all seasons — whether it’s warm or cold outside.

In this new construction home, the grilles-between-the-glass set the project apart from others in the area. The innovative grille profiles, permanently sealed between panes of insulating glass, create a divided-light look while maintaining a smooth glass surface. These aluminum grilles, placed between the panes, make the interior and exterior glass surfaces smooth and easy to clean. The color-matched grilles, used for the office windows, blend seamlessly with the low-maintenance window frames which never need to be repainted.

Our exclusive vinyl formula ensures that the solid-color frames can withstand everyday use, making even small scratches invisible to the eye. We offer a wide selection of colors, allowing buyers to choose frames that complement their home’s exterior. In this project, the builders chose a white frame, staying consistent with the traditional style throughout the home. Plus, our high-quality vinyl withstands the harsh climates with its fade-resistant formula and color retention, keeping the white frames untarnished for years to come.

Vinyl double-hung windows are ideal for this new construction home. They require minimal maintenance and beautifully blend traditional style with modern features.
