The Hidden Costs of Cheap Windows in Colorado
In Colorado, “cheap” windows don’t stay cheap for long. They warp, crack, leak, and end up costing more in energy, repairs, and early replacement than they ever save upfront.
The smarter move? Choose a window built for our climate — Infinity from Marvin, made from Ultrex fiberglass.
Cheap Windows Fail in Colorado’s Climate
Vinyl Windows Can’t Handle Freeze–Thaw Cycles
Snow melts in the day, freezes at night. Vinyl expands and contracts. Seals give out. Drafts creep in. Fiberglass stays stable, holding a weather-tight fit season after season.
UV, Hail, and High-Altitude Sun Take Their Toll
Colorado sunlight is relentless. Low-grade frames fade and weaken; hail adds impact stress. Ultrex fiberglass resists UV and impact far better than bargain vinyl.
The Infinity Difference — Ultrex® Fiberglass
8× Stronger Than Vinyl
Infinity windows are built from Ultrex, a proprietary fiberglass material engineered for strength, stability, and long-term performance.
Made for Colorado Weather
Where vinyl bends, Ultrex holds its shape. From subzero mornings to blazing summer afternoons, dimensional stability means less movement, fewer leaks, and lasting comfort.
Decades of Performance, Not Just Years
Cheap vinyl windows often need replacing in 7–10 years. Infinity is designed to deliver decades of beauty, efficiency, and reliability.
Energy Efficiency That Stays Efficient
Cheap Windows Leak Energy Fast
As vinyl frames expand and contract, seals fail, and cooler air can escape in the summer. Bills rise. Comfort drops. Noise sneaks in.
Infinity’s Tight Fit Saves Year After Year
Because Ultrex is more stable than cheaper vinyl windows, the seal stays sealed. That helps keep rooms comfortable and energy costs predictable.
Resale Value and Warranty Confidence
Buyers and Inspectors Notice Quality
Cut-rate windows are a red flag at resale. Premium fiberglass windows signal care and quality — the kind of detail buyers value.
Backed by Marvin’s Warranty
Marketing hype fades; warranties stand. Infinity windows are backed by Marvin, a name homeowners and architects trust.
