Double-hung windows in Provo, Utah
Two vertically sliding sashes; both the top and bottom sash open. For Provo's mixed-age housing stock (46.3% of homes predate 1980), double-hung window replacement is a common project — and in the ENERGY STAR Northern zone, the number that matters most is a low U-factor (≤ 0.22) to keep heat in.
Short answer
Double-hung windows in Provo typically cost $685–$3,130 installed per opening. The low end is a mid-grade vinyl insert from a regional installer; the top is a premium frame, a full-frame installation, or a full-service national brand.

Is a Double-hung window right for a Provo home?
Both sashes slide vertically and typically tilt inward for cleaning.
Where it fits:
- Traditional and historic home styles
- Rooms facing walkways, porches, or patios (no outward projection)
- Easy cleaning from inside on upper floors
What to weigh:
- More potential air-leakage paths than hinged styles at equal quality
- Half the opening ventilates at any one time
Double-hung windows and Provo's climate
Provo sits in the ENERGY STAR Northern zone (IECC zone 5B (cool, dry), Utah County), where the priority is a low U-factor (≤ 0.22) to keep heat in.
Double-hung sashes seal against weatherstripping as they slide, so they have more potential air-leakage paths than hinged styles. In the Northern zone, prioritize a well-built unit and a low U-factor (≤ 0.22) to offset that.

Rebates & incentives in Utah
The federal window tax credit (25C) ended for projects placed in service after December 31, 2025. If your windows were installed in 2025, you can still claim it on your 2025 return — but for new projects there is no federal window credit. State and utility programs are now the main source of window incentives.
The Utah Office of Energy Development was approved for about $101 million in IRA Home Energy Rebate funding, but the programs were not yet available to consumers as of mid-2026 amid federal funding uncertainty — confirm current status with OED before counting on these rebates. See our Provo guide for the full program list.
