Nevada is the seat of Story County, a welcoming community with a charming downtown and a strong connection to its agricultural roots. The city features well-maintained older homes near the courthouse square, established mid-century neighbourhoods, and a community atmosphere that draws families and professionals.
Nevada's Story County location on the central Iowa plains brings frigid winters with temperatures dropping below -15F and unrelenting winds that create dangerous wind chills and accelerate heat loss through older windows.
Nevada's older homes near the courthouse and along the Lincoln Highway have many original windows that are major energy liabilities in Story County's cold winters. Modern triple-pane replacements provide essential insulation and comfort while preserving the character of these historic central Iowa properties.

Our 1930s home near the Nevada square had beautiful but terribly inefficient windows. Panes crafted custom replacements that look original but perform like modern units. Our heating costs dropped by a quarter and the house stays warm all winter. — Karen B., Central Nevada
