Re: Advice for Northern AZ

Thank you! The 2nd window co. came out and after I told him they weren’t leaking or tooo drafty he suggested just re-glazing as well. They are quoting for Solarban 70 (2).

Re: Advice for Northern AZ

Hello, best I could do is link to copy and paste into browser...sorry for the inconvenience. Included a pic of existing.
