Are Home Windows UV Protected?
Think about the moments when you’re exposed to the sun and UV rays. You might picture walking through the park or lying out on the beach. But did you think about sitting in your own home? Probably not!
Typical home windows block most UVB rays, but only a small portion of UVA rays. So, while you think basking in front of your windows is harmless, you might actually be damaging your skin.
UVB Versus UVA Rays
It’s great that windows can block most UVB rays. UVB is a shorter wave light that’s primarily responsible for sunburn and skin cancer. UVB rays don’t penetrate the skin too deeply (just into the epidermis). Sunblock, for example, primarily blocks UVB rays. UVA rays, however, are slightly longer waves that can penetrate deep into the skin. They age the skin and, unfortunately, can also contribute to the risk of skin cancer.
Interestingly, sitting in front of your windows also has a lot of benefits. Sunshine boosts your vitamin D levels and can give your skin a healthy glow. So, what can you do to reap the benefits of the sun inside your home without damaging your skin or putting yourself at risk for skin cancer?

We recently had all the windows in or home swapped from the original single pane aluminum windows to double pane vinyl. I have struggled in the past attempting to get any remodeling stuff done in the Longview area, finally we found a company that does things the right way, from sales to manufacturing to installation, I am very happy with All Seasons. Thanks to Amber and the crew!
I had 27 windows replaced in my home, the crew who did the work were courteous and proficient in doing the installation. The new windows look great and replace the original windows that were several decades old and in poor condition. I can confidently recommend All Seasons in Longview if you are considering updating and improving your home .
My husband and I recently had all new windows installed around our 1970's home. What attracted us to All Seasons was that all their window work is done in house including sales, manufacturing, installation and warranty. You're not dealing with a franchise where warranty work or repairs involve sub-contacting another business. Our sales lady, Amber, was prompt, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. Installation was quickly and efficiently done without leaving an ounce of debris. We highly recommend All Seasons for all your window needs.
We were looking for some options for the windows/doors on our house. Amber McGovney came out and met with us. She was so helpful and knowledgeable and made it very easy. She is the true picture of customer service and was a delight to work with. I would highly recommend her and this company. Thank you!
