Services
American Thermal Window has a large variety of quality replacement windows from the manufacturers you know and trust. American Thermal Window works with more manufacturers than most Chicago window companies. By carrying multiple window manufacturers, American Thermal Window is able to work with both large and small budgets and offer numerous styles no matter the budget.
Bay, bow, and garden windows enhance homes by increasing light, by adding storage space and by adding beauty to rooms. American Thermal Window can install casement or double hung style bay, bow, and garden windows to any home. As with their other windows, bay windows, bow windows and garden windows from American Thermal Window come with numerous options and can be completely customized for your project.
American Thermal Window carries a large selection of replacement casing windows and replacement awning windows. Casement and awning windows make a great alternative to single-hung and double-hung windows, especially when a sleek modern look is desired that still maximizes ventilation. With Casement Windows, the window is attached to the frame by one or more hinges and swings open with the use of a crank or lever placed at hand-height.
Double hung windows are an extremely popular window choice among American Thermal Window's client base. On double hung windows, both sashes on the frame move independently, allowing both the bottom and top portion of the window to be opened for ventilation. Also, both sashes of the window tilt inwards to make cleaning the window exteriors easier.
Egress windows are partially underground windows, which are large enough to use as an exit in case of an emergency. These are typically found in finished basements and are often required by building ordinances. Egress windows not only work as an emergency exit from the basement, but also have the added benefit of providing light to an otherwise dark space.

We were very pleased with the service. The installation went quickly and smoothly, the workers were very competent and thorough and they respected our wishes. Communication with both them and the office was always prompt and courteous. We are pleased with the product and look forward to years of use.

Needed two windows replaced. After cancelling the first meeting 30 minutes beforehand, I reached out to reschedule. When the person showed up, he was helpful during the meeting, and promised to follow up in 2 weeks with an estimate. It’s been a month since the late November meeting. Never heard from him or the company again. I moved on.

The most unprofessional window company ever. We wanted to set up a meeting for windows replacement for one of our clients who hired us to handle the entire project after storm damage. The representative who answered the call was very ignorant and did not want to provide the estimate due to the fact we are not homeowners. I explained to her multiple times that the homeowner will be there and will sign any necessary paperwork but we were ask to look for a different company.

Ordered a screen door and exterior entry door March 31st. We were told 8-10 weeks before installation. Twice the person who did the scheduling " was on vacation". It's 15 weeks later and no doors. We had new siding, soffit and gutters installed by one their competitors within a month. No communication and a bunch of BS from American Thermal. DO NOT GO WITH THIS COMPANY. Next step is to file with Business Affairs and Consumer Protection with the city

Wish I could give 10 stars because that is what the company as a whole deserves. Windows were installed 06/04/2021. Communication was excellent, experience was excellent, product is excellent , installation was excellent and customer care exceeded expectations. From the initial contact with Iver Jr to set up a free quote to the install, it was a pleasant experience. Iver Jr made me feel like part of the family, he set up the estimate and he personally came to my house to look at what we had and within a couple days he had my estimate set up. He recommended triple pane windows that have a three

I recently had my Florida Room Windows replaced with American Thermal Windows. I was desperate after the first company that we hired to do this project dropped us like a hot potato after seeing the scope of the project.
I called A.T.W. and made an appointment not knowing what to expect. Colleen arranged to come the following morning. She made me… feel at ease almost immediately! She guaranteed that the project was going to be done without any problems. A few minutes after she had arrived, Iver, the owner of the Company showed up and assured us that the project was feasible. He personally

I just called this company to get an initial consultation about the possible price of the installation of windows. Previously, I called this company. The manager was extremely nice and answered all questions that I asked. Today, when I called them, the manager was very rude. She kept telling me that they do not work with people who do not own properties (I was trying to get an estimate). I had 100 percent feeling that she just wanted to get rid of me. As a result, she told me that all sales managers went back home and there was nobody to help me. I hope that they have great workers who install

We purchased a security storm door for our front door through American Thermal Window. We had Vitaly & Dema install the door, and they were very professional and quick. Our storm door looks beautiful, and we had a great experience with them. I highly recommend American Thermal Window for anyone who is looking for new windows or storm doors!

In the past 15 yrs, my father spent over $50,000 with this company. About 3 yrs ago, we had new windows, new front door & patio doors installed. That same yr come winter time I had cold air that leaked through my windows & frost build up. I called then the following spring & all they did was come out & recaulked half the windows, I still had… frost build up & air leaks the following winters after that. Also the hardware on my front is rusted, the rubber trim on the bottom of my front door is torn& when I had someone come out to look at my door last month they said
