My Association is requiring aluminum (old style unpainted)

#1 Post by mowedthelawn »

Any suggestions. I have really tried to get my HOA to change their mind. I do realize there are clear anodized window frames and mill finish windows available through Milgard etc. I am trying to save some time (special order item 4 to 10 weeks out) and money. I live in Phoenix, AZ and was hoping someone knows of a supplier, vendor or manufacturer...or someplace I could just direct order from.
I am just looking for 2 each tempered glass-frosted to replace a 24"X24" opening in block left sliding/dual pane, and 1 each regular left sliding 72" wide X 36" tall dual pane. Must be milled finish......help please.
THANKS! Ed

Newer style aluminum frames should be thermally improved (i.e. thermally disconnected from the exterior) and should have the option of the much newer glass.

Low-e 366 would most certainly be appropriate here.
