Replacement Windows Discussion Board Forum

I would like to know what Okna calls it's windows that you see out but people can't look into the window. Do all manufacturers call it the same. I think it is something to do with the low e glass and how they apply it to the triple pane window. So if you were ordering a window what do you tell them.

The last two times the installers came out they told me there's nothing they can do the window is too big and the owners right hand man told me that you need a new window but I didn't tell you that I know the owner is not going to be happy. The owner came out and said to take the window out tear up ...

More pictures and he just leaves the soffit the way it is because he doesn't have soffit material on a truck I do not believe I should have to accept the way we install the window.

More pictures for the bow window

The company that installed my bow window sent somebody out to look at it and he said we should probably replace the window. The owner came out and said we can take the window out take part of the soffit off and reinstall it. To take the bow window out from the inside he cut the bolts off that hold t...

I just noticed something else about the install the 4 operating windows there is an uneven Gap when the windows are closed. I've looked at five other bow windows installed in the neighborhood years and years ago and the gap is pretty even nothing like mine. The operating windows were put in after th...

There are four vents 124 + 5 what concerns me the most is the way it is out of level from front to back on the seat as you see in the pictures. This is a 15 degree bow which sticks out even more.The latest from the installer he is going to spend he says three or four hours to put in the cable system...

The bow window was pushed through the opening and installed from the inside out and the left side would not go in and he had a cut around the frame and use a pry bar too get it fully into the opening. He checked the level at the seat never on the sides and saw that it was pitched down he put in knee...

Here is the last picture that didn't come out in the previous post I am now looking at the picture again and doesn't even look like the windows set in the frame straight it looks like it's tilted to the right looking at it from the street

I am trying to send two pictures and the seat inside with a level in the middle going toward the window which seems to be out at least a half an inch. The bow on the outside is pitched Into the center. I have a fieldstone front and the two braces just kill the aesthetics of the fieldstone. I was tol...
