Re: alside mezzo

Also, I am throwing a simonton 5500 into the mix since we might not have the money to pay for the high end okna. I saw someone ask this question, but didn't see it answered: I'm also interested in the Krypton gas upgrade as I understand it doubles the density of the insulating gap- do you recommend ...

Re: alside mezzo

envirostar delux, double hung, white, xr5 glass package and full screen with the grids. so my husband asked the question (and i didn't know how to respond), are the opinions on the window site like the opinions of people who debate a mac is better than a PC, when a PC can do the job you need, but so...

Re: alside mezzo

how about gorell vs. okna. is one more high end? I see them both equally spoken of as good windows. IE: if i want a good window which is less costly!?

Re: alside mezzo

I'd be interested in knowing what the the guy had to say against it? There really is nothing bad to say other than making something up. From what I recall, they said it is stainless steal and not metal frame so it won't rust. They have the lock and groove fitting where the windows lock to stop air ...

Re: alside mezzo

What is "pricey" when it comes to the HiMark? It is one of the 2 or 3 best vinyl windows out there if you ask me and should come at a premium to that extent. If the company is well rated, I would imagine they would be a bit more expensive too. What makes the himark the best? the company i...

I only have one himark dealer willing to bid out on my two windows and they are extremely pricey compared to all other estimates. (Not because of the windows, the company...

Here were my other questions if anyone is still reading this! 1) if the low e keeps the heat out, why would i want that in PA where it can get cold and I want to keep heat in? does low e do more than keep the heat out and if not,...
