Peeling paint is more than an eyesore, it’s a sign that wood is being exposed to weather, which will ultimately cause it to rot. A small number of high-end producers use rot-resistant species like mahogany, but most domestically manufactured windows are made from less-resistant species such as pine. That said, a properly maintained wood Replacement window could last hundreds of years.

 Replacement windows made of wood are a very popular choice of material. However, most of the wood windows sold, for replacement purposes, are actually, clad windows. What this means is the window has been covered, on the exterior only, with a material that is usually either vinyl or aluminum. The reason for this is to reduce the amount of maintenance needed to keep the exterior of the window in good shape. Wood, left to the elements, will need periodic painting and eventually will degrade and begin to rot. By covering the window with an impervious material, the window will be much better equipped to withstand rain, and the effects of damaging UV rays emitted by the sun.

In addition, even though the window may be clad, it will better resemble a traditional wood window from the exterior than a full vinyl product.

The big question you want to ask yourself prior to shopping is if wood is a viable option for you due to maintenance concerns. If it is not, then you can eliminate that and reduce the pool, or amount of products you need to look at in order to make the best decision.
