Window Sweepstakes Winners Turn Down the Thermostat on Day One

Nov 12, 2020

The Meyers family badly needed new windows

Which made us extremely excited to deliver their grand prize of a houseful of windows!

The high temperature in Dayton on October 30 topped out at just 47 degrees.

The Meyers family was preparing for a chilly Halloween weekend outside, but inside their home, they were nearly ready to turn their furnace off. Justin and Kadi Meyers, official winners of the 2019 ImproveIt Sweepstakes were in the middle of having their brand new grand prize windows installed and could already feel the enormous difference that new, energy-efficient windows were going to make in their home.

“I’ve already had to turn the thermostat down since the new windows started going in,” Kadi told us while installer Morris Mounts and his team were hard at work that chilly fall day. She said the couple knows that small turn of the thermostat dial will make a huge impact on their energy bills this winter and beyond.

Perfect Timing, Amazing Performance

New windows had been on the Meyers’ radar since they bought their house in 2017. Some were leaking, some were cracked or broken, and many were yellowed with cigarette residue from previous owners. After a series of unrelated home improvement issues delayed the purchase of new windows, the Meyerses came across ImproveIt at the 2019 Fairborn Halloween Festival and entered the ImproveIt Sweepstakes for a chance to win a houseful of new windows.

Luck of the draw brought that opportunity back to the forefront. After their name was drawn, ImproveIt technicians measured their old, inefficient, broken windows, and ordered new ImproveIt windows, custom-built to fit perfectly in their home. As soon as installers got to work placing the new windows a few weeks later, the couple could feel the difference in their home comfort.

“I’m really looking forward to our heating bills going down this winter, and I can’t wait for the new window in the baby’s room,” Kadi says, noting that their toddler daughter’s bedroom is always the coldest room in the house in the winter and hottest in the summer. The family won’t have to worry have to worry about that anymore, thanks to their new Performax54 windows sporting high-performance Thermostat glass, the exclusive SolarGold spacer, best-in-class T-Core insulated frames and C-Core insulated sashes. “Now we’ll be able to spend time in her room and we won’t be freezing or overheating. It’s going to make such a difference.”

Five-Star Service

Beyond their new windows’ outstanding performance, the Meyerses were impressed by the service they received from ImproveIt at every step of their customer journey. Justin commented on the no-pressure experience they had when first meeting ImproveIt in Fairborn, and with the sales team as they discussed their needs during their free in-home consultation. The couple said the Dayton window installers also made a personal impression on them.

“From the time they showed up, it felt like we had family members in our home,” Kadi says. “We walked through the house showing them which windows were being replaced and I mentioned a problem with our sliding glass door, even though that wasn’t part of our project. Morris and his team showed me how to fix the problem and gave me a few extra tips that will help me maintain our house. It was really helpful.”

Justin agrees. “Everyone at ImproveIt has been so passionate about making sure we’re comfortable in our home,” he says. “You can tell it’s not just a gimmick because they haven’t been salesy about it. Like when we mentioned the problem with the door, they gave us real help instead of just trying to sell us a new door. It shows they really care.”

ImproveIt is thrilled to have the Meyerses as part of the family, and we look forward to helping them with future remodeling needs. You could be part of the ImproveIt family too!
