We changed out all of our windows right after we moved here except for the one that we changed in April.

Gets too damned cold here to turn the A/C on in the Winter. Would freeze it up. I think its like our trucks, doesn't work under a certain temperature.

We replace all the windows over the last 15 years with Anderson windows and they have helped year around with maintaining the interior temperature! Was worth the price in heating and cooling savings!

I like it cool when I sleep summer or winter. We keep the bedroom about 61°.
The rest of the house stays between 65-70° in winter and AC keeps it about 68-72 in the summer.

I replaced our drafty front door about 4 years ago. Did it before I couldn't. LOL
