Black Sunroom Windows Enhance Design and Performance of Richmond Home

The capital city of Virginia, Richmond has a charming downtown atmosphere and affordable suburbs, making it one of the best places to live in the state. As one of the country’s oldest cities, honoring its historical past is at the forefront of homeowners’ minds. To preserve their rich heritage, homes in the area are often renovated, keeping their original charm while making modern upgrades.

These Virginia homeowners were looking to replace their old, drafty sunroom windows and patio door with ones that were more energy efficient and improved ventilation. Our team stepped in to help with this window and patio door replacement. We recommended Pella Impervia and Lifestyle Series to enhance the overall performance while maintaining the original window style. These replacements were customized to meet the needs of this Richmond home.

With a variety of beautiful paints and hardware finishes, wood and fiberglass windows suit the style of any home, blending the new with the old. To complement the other windows throughout, our team helped the homeowners personalize their windows with a sleek, black finish. The design flexibility of wood and fiberglass maintains the home’s style. These black windows contrast against the white and neutral colors of the sunroom, elegantly framing the backyard views.

To resolve the lack of energy efficiency in this Virginia home, our team replaced the drafty windows with Pella Lifestyle Series double-hung windows. These replacements ensure quality and durability for years to come. The combination of EnduraGuard® wood protection and exterior aluminum cladding protects against Virginia’s frosts and snowstorms and helps keep the sunroom comfortable even in the summer humidity.

With this project, we also used Pella Impervia fiberglass windows to deliver exceptional durability through the rainstorms. These sliding windows use a unique weeping system to direct water away from the home in extreme weather. The outstanding resistance to water helps keep rain and moisture out of the sunroom.

Our double-hung and sliding windows deliver exceptional ventilation to the sunroom with their simple sliding features. These homeowners can enjoy a fresh breeze by simply opening the top and bottom sashes of double-hung windows, allowing air to flow in and out of the home. Sliding fiberglass windows allow crisp air and natural light into the space year-round. Now, the room is well-ventilated, drawing cool air from the outside.

By installing a sliding patio door, we were able to create easy access to the backyard without obstructing any views. The glass panels connect the indoor sunroom with the backyard for a seamless transition between the two. Since the easy-to-use sliding patio door slides along a track, it also saves these Virginia homeowners valuable floor space.

Our team replaced the weathered windows and patio door with Pella Lifestyle Series and Pella Impervia to enhance energy efficiency and style. The black-framed windows and patio door frame the natural backyard landscape and elevate the sunroom. The impressive performance and design features ensure these Virginia homeowners will enjoy comfort for years to come.
