High Rise Window Replacement

When the View is Everything—But So is Safety and Performance

In a high-rise building, your windows do more than frame a view—they protect the structure, regulate temperature, reduce noise, and impact energy bills across dozens or even hundreds of units. Over time, aging or underperforming windows can lead to air leaks, water intrusion, and code compliance issues—not to mention tenant complaints.

That’s why at AFR Windows, we specialize in high-rise window replacement that’s safe, compliant, energy-efficient, and architecturally aligned with your building’s unique aesthetic.

The Problem: Outdated Windows in Tall Buildings Create Big Risks

Many commercial and residential high-rises built in the 1970s–2000s are showing their age. Their original windows—often single-pane or metal-framed—no longer meet today’s standards for energy performance or structural integrity.

We see common problems like:

• Drafts and condensation inside units

• Window frame corrosion or seal failure

• Noise complaints from urban environments

• Water leaks leading to mold or interior damage

• Glass that doesn’t meet updated wind load or impact codes

Replacing these windows isn’t just about comfort—it’s about compliance, energy savings, and protecting property value.

The Solution: Modern Window Systems Built for Height and Harsh Conditions

AFR Windows provides full-service high-rise window replacement, offering:

• Energy-efficient glazing that meets or exceeds ENERGY STAR® standards

• Impact-rated systems for hurricane zones or high-wind areas

• Custom-matched finishes to preserve architectural intent

• Curtain wall, window wall, or punched opening replacements

• Turnkey project management from design to signoff

We don’t just install windows—we help future-proof your building with systems designed to perform at elevation, under pressure, and across decades.

Serving a Wide Range of High-Rise Clients

Our team partners with:

• Condominium associations & property managers needing phased replacements across units

High-rise window projects are complex and regulated. That’s why we handle every phase with expertise and precision:

Energy Efficiency That Pays Back

Today’s window technology offers impressive performance advantages. Upgrading old windows with modern high-rise systems can:

• Reduce HVAC load and energy costs by 15–30%

• Improve indoor comfort with thermal breaks and UV protection

• Dampen outside noise for better quality of life

• Boost building marketability and resale value

In many cities, window replacement can even help buildings qualify for green certifications or local tax incentives.
