Glass Packages: Upgrading from standard Low-E to triple-pane or impact-rated glass adds $50-$200 per window.

Installation Complexity: Second-story windows, stucco repair requirements, and difficult access increase labor costs.

Permit Requirements: Most Arizona municipalities require permits for window replacement, adding $100-$300 to project costs.

Available Rebates and Incentives

Arizona homeowners can offset costs through several programs:

**APS Energy Efficiency Rebates**: Up to $125 per window for qualifying products

**SRP Rebates**: Similar incentives for Salt River Project customers

**Federal Tax Credits**: 30% credit (up to $1,200) for energy-efficient home improvements

How to Compare Quotes Fairly

When evaluating contractor proposals, ensure each quote includes:

Specific product specifications (manufacturer, series, glass package)

Installation scope (trim repair, stucco patching, interior finishing)

Warranty terms (manufacturer and workmanship)

Permit handling and inspection coordination

Timeline and payment schedule

The lowest quote isn't always the best value. Consider the contractor's reputation, license status (verify ROC numbers), and included services when making your decision.
