Stephanie dives into budget-conscious yet high-performance choices for windows and doors on this episode of That ‘70s Remodel. She explains the decisions made to balance affordability, performance, and long-term durability.
To improve energy efficiency, they upgraded the building envelope with Huber ZIP-R Sheathing, providing built-in insulation and a water-resistant barrier ideal for Utah’s changing climate. For windows, the team chose AMSCO Studio Series vinyl windows, a cost-effective, locally made option that delivered solid performance while keeping the full-house package under $8,000 (half the cost of higher-end brands).
For exterior doors, they used ThermaTru, allowing for customized designs at an affordable price point. These selections included entry, garage, and fire-rated doors—all durable and visually appealing.
This episode is a guide for homeowners, builders, and remodelers looking to balance home renovation costs with energy efficiency, durability, and curb appeal—all without compromising on quality.
