The buildings in this district reflect late nineteenth and early twentieth century building technology and aesthetics that influenced north central Florida and Alachua County.
Double Pane Windows
Double pane windows, also known as dual pane windows, are an excellent choice if you want to make your home more energy efficient. They help reduce cold air from entering your house and warm air from escaping during Florida’s hot weather. This helps you save money on your energy bills and improves your comfort level.
To increase their energy efficiency, double pane windows have an insulating space between the two glass panes. This space is usually filled with an inert gas, such as argon or krypton, which are clear and odorless.
The extra gas in the window helps keep heat and cold from entering your house, which makes it easier to regulate your home’s temperature. This can help you save on your energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint. Double pane windows also offer a number of other benefits, including reducing outside noise. This is especially helpful if you live near a busy street or train tracks.
Vinyl Windows
When a homeowner is looking for new windows they will often come across vinyl. This type of window is a popular choice because it is affordable to manufacture and the materials are very durable. It also has great insulation properties so it can reduce energy bills for homeowners. They can be made in different styles and colors, but they are most commonly found in white. They can even be designed to look like wood or aluminum windows so homeowners can get the aesthetic they are after without sacrificing durability or ease of maintenance.
Vinyl windows started to gain interest when people saw that they were much easier to take care of than the wooden options that used to be a standard option. They didn’t require refinishing to keep them looking their best and they did not rot or suffer from pests like termites. They were also more energy efficient and lasted longer than their wood counterparts.
