-   Glazing (double vs triple pane).
-   Window size.

### Vinyl Window Replacement vs Double-Pane Window Replacement

Vinyl frames are the most common option; double-pane low-E glass is the Title 24 baseline included in nearly all SoCal replacement quotes.

### Sliding Glass Door Replacement vs Bay Window Installation

Slider replacements dominate large-room budgets; bay windows require structural reframing and aren't a like-for-like swap.
