I went with the Okna for $850. Didn't think it would matter to me but slightly more glass and better looking window. Also, I'm in MA the Okna guy 30 miles away in Southern NH Softlite guy 60 miles away Southern MA. I prefer the installer is closer in case something goes wrong and I have to drive up ...

13 32x60 1 28x36 window. Dual pane. Including window pocket insulation. Inside Install. LeadSafe install.

Got a Softlite Imperial Elite bid $890 per window. Only SL installer besides Zen in my area, 4.9 star reviews no salesman push. Received an Okna 500 bid haggled and got them to match the $890. 4.9 star reviews also (and gave me a list of jobs they've done with addresses and such.) Put down a deposit...

The reality is that you are only impacting the air tightness in that one stud bay and I have seen foam continue to cure and ooze after installation in the case of large void spaces. That's what I was thinking. T...

Best way to insulate weight pockets? I've heard prices from $25-50 per window using batt. Was quoted flat $1600 fee to insulate 14 windows with low expansion foam. Does anyone use cellulose or anything else that is blown in? I'm assuming the foam is the most efficient, but can't see myself paying $1...

@ OCCanton. I'm in MA as well, was wondering who you used to install the SoftLites?? Seems like a good price...
