Central Texas Window Replacement

#1 Post by Brock212 »

Dear replacement window Gurus,

I plan to replace 16 out of 27 windows in my 22 year old Central Texas single story, all brick sided house.
Due to the seasonal temperature fluctuations in Central Texas, would you please recommend whether the replacement windows should be aluminum or vinyl frames.

I have obtained 5 estimates from 5 different companies for both aluminum and vinyl frame windows. I would greatly appreciate your recommendation based upon the manufacturer and price provided below.
Thank you for your help.

NT Presidential White Vinyl Windows - 18,500
Simonton Prism Platinum Vinyl White Windows – 13,000
Zen Nirvana Vinyl White Windows – 22,000
NT Twinsulator Thermal Break Aluminum Windows - 20,500
DYC White Aluminum Windows – 14,100
All replacement windows will have Solar LowE and Argon gas

The NT Presidential is way overpriced in your comparison. Not a bad window, but not worth a premium price.

Assuming the installation is done well, the Don Young aluminum is the best option.
