ES Windows Energy-Efficient Windows in Coral Springs: What to Know First
We provide independent ES Windows repair and replacement across Coral Springs, with most energy-efficiency jobs turned around in one to two visits. A typical ES Windows energy retrofit in Coral Springs – whether it’s failed Low-E glass, a compromised argon seal, or full ENERGY STAR replacement – runs between $85 and $185 per opening for glass-only service, or $450 to $900 per window for full frame-out replacement. We quote the job before we start, and the number on the estimate is the number on the bill.
This page is for Coral Springs homeowners who own ES Windows and are watching their cooling bills climb, feeling heat radiate through the glass, or noticing condensation between panes that should not be there. If that sounds like your house, call (727) 261-2215 and we’ll walk you through what we’re seeing. Dale Kessler reads every rough opening before quoting, so you won’t get surprised by a change order after the job starts.
How ES Windows Products Fail – and How We Fix Them
- Failed Low-E coating on the ES-3000 series. The ES-3000 double-pane line uses a soft Low-E coating that sits inside the airspace. After a decade of Coral Springs sun, that coating can oxidize and turn hazy – homeowners describe it as “the window looks dirty no matter how much you clean it.” The glass is not dirty. The coating is failing. We swap the insulated glass unit (IGU), not the whole window, and the haze is gone.
- Argon gas migration on ES-6000 picture windows. Large fixed-glass ES-6000 units are a common sight in Coral Springs ranch homes built in the 1990s and early 2000s. The spacer system on those frames was prone to seal fatigue at the corners, which lets argon bleed out and outside air in. You’ll see condensation between the panes on humid July mornings. Our fix is a new IGU with a foam spacer – a small upgrade that costs a few dollars more but holds gas far longer than the original aluminum spacer.
- Frame weep-hole clogging on the ES-410 sliding line. Coral Springs gets 60-plus inches of rain a year, and the ES-410 slider’s weep system was designed for drier conditions. When those weep holes clog with pollen and dust, water pools in the track and wicks into the frame, which degrades the weatherstripping and eventually the thermal break. We clear the track, replace the weatherstripping with a denser profile, and drill the weep path clean. It’s a $75 to $150 fix that prevents a $600-or-more frame replacement.
- UV-damaged glazing bead on ES-700 casement windows. The vinyl glazing bead on ES-700 casements gets brittle after 15-plus years of South Florida exposure. When it cracks, the IGU shifts slightly in its pocket, the seal flexes, and gas loss follows. Our techs cut the old bead out clean, set the new IGU with a fresh bead and butyl seal, and the window tightens up. An OEM bead is not always available for older ES-700 runs, so we use a quality aftermarket profile that matches the original dimensions.
- Failed seal on ES-500 single-hung sashes in east-facing bedrooms. The east side of Coral Springs houses takes the full morning sun, and ES-500 sashes on those elevations tend to cook. Sealant loses flexibility, the IGU fogs, and the homeowner starts pricing a full replacement. But the sash frame is usually sound. We pull the sash, replace the IGU with a unit carrying an upgraded warm-edge spacer, reset it, and the window works for another 15 years. Replacing glass instead of the whole window saves $200 to $400 per opening.
Our ES Windows Energy-Efficient Windows Process
- 1
Call and talk to a person. When you call (727) 261-2215, a live person answers – not a phone tree, not a callback form. We’ll ask where the windows are, what you’re seeing, and when you’d like us out.
- 2
On-site measurement and diagnosis. A background-checked, uniformed technician comes to your home, measures every opening twice, and checks the obvious and the not-so-obvious: seal integrity, gas condition, frame square, weep function, and operation. We diagnose before we quote.
- 3
Parts decision on the spot. For ES Windows, OEM parts are the first choice when they’re available and still manufactured for your series. But for older ES-3000 and ES-700 units, OEM glass packages have been discontinued. We’ll show you the aftermarket options side by side, on paper, with real prices, so you know exactly what you’re buying.
- 4
The work. Most energy-efficiency jobs – glass replacement, seal repair, weatherstripping refresh – finish in a single visit. Full frame-out replacements that require removing interior trim take two visits, but we’ll tell you that up front and set the schedule before we begin.
- 5
Testing before we pack up. After any repair or replacement, we check operation, confirm the seal is holding, and run a quick thermal check with an infrared meter so you can see the difference at the glass.
- 6
The Keystone Standard on paper. Both warranty layers – manufacturer and workmanship – get registered in writing before we leave your driveway, with durations stated. That’s not something every shop in Coral Springs does, and we’ve never met a homeowner who thought it was unnecessary.
What ES Windows Energy-Efficient Windows Costs in Coral Springs
Prices vary by model series, glass package, and whether we’re replacing glass or the whole frame. Here’s what Coral Springs homeowners typically see:
- Glass-only IGU replacement, ES-3000 or ES-500 single-hung: $85 to $185 per pane, installed
- Glass-only IGU replacement, ES-6000 picture window: $175 to $350 per unit, depending on size
- Weatherstripping and track service, ES-410 slider: $75 to $150
- Full frame-out replacement, ES-6000 or ES-700: $450 to $900 per opening
- Whole-house energy retrofit, 10 to 15 windows: $6,000 to $13,000, depending on glass package and framing
The big variables are whether the existing frames are square (they usually are not, after 20 years in Coral Springs humidity) and whether you choose double or triple pane. Triple pane costs about 20 to 25 percent more and delivers most of its benefit in noise reduction, which matters if you live near Sample Road or the Sawgrass Expressway. In the Ramblewood and Cypress Run neighborhoods, where Dale grew up, double pane with Low-E and argon does the job for most homes.

FAQs
Yes, but it depends on the series. Glass packages for the ES-3000 and ES-700 are largely discontinued, which means we use quality aftermarket IGUs that match the original dimensions and performance specs. For newer ES-410 and ES-6000 units, OEM parts are often still available. Whichever route your window needs, we’ll show you the options and prices on paper before any work starts. Call (727) 261-2215 for an exact answer for your specific windows.
If your ES Windows are still under manufacturer warranty, we work within the warranty terms and handle the paperwork. If the warranty has lapsed, there’s nothing to void – you’re free to choose the best repair path for your home, and we’ll help you compare those paths honestly. The workmanship side is covered by our Done Right Promise regardless.
Glass-only replacement and seal work is typically finished in one visit of three to six hours, depending on how many openings we’re working on. Full frame-out replacement usually takes two visits – tear-out and set on day one, trim and seal on day two. We’ll give you a written schedule before we start, and we’ll be there when we say.
If the frame is square and the sash operates cleanly, repairing the glass or seal is almost always cheaper than full replacement – usually $200 to $400 less per opening. If the frame is warped, rotted, or out of square, replacement is the honest answer. We’ll tell you which one you actually need, not which one makes us more money. A quick diagnostic call to (727) 261-2215 settles it.
