Re: NJ Windows - and can’t break the bank
MI Windows are garbage and pella is just as bad. I also agree with looking at the Okna 600 series, very well built. Okna also make a very nice sliding patio door. Also like Soft Lite's patio door and their "Elements" window.

Re: Should I wrap exterior with metal
Most window companies do a decent job at capping. It's not rocket science. Problems occur when guys that do windows on weekends or basement remodelers that claim to do " everything".

Re: Tax credit eligibility based on energystar.gov list or just by the requirements? (OKNA)
FYI, I never heard of anyone having to show any proof. The 2 popular wood brands haven't met those standards and yet people always get the tax credit although probably out of being uninformed as to what the guidelines were.

Re: Okna vs Others - Windows and Sliders Northern Connecticut
MI Windows are certainly not a well regarded brand. This is a project you want to do once, not twice or you will be paying much more. Okna do a great job with their windows. Far too many homeowners use the age old excuse that " this is not our forever home" and skimp on quality. That is no...

Thats an older Vytex window and it was their " low end " series . Their 2 upper end product lines are MUCH better designed.

Re: Windows in Central NJ
That part of New Jersey is too far out of our area. We do venture into southern nj from time to time. Try the Agm Windows and Doors Company and see if they go to that area.mesagsxbkr wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 4:20 pm We are in Somerset.
You are correct, I put 19 windows, but it’s 17. I double counted the sliders in the double hung.

Re: Input wanted on proposed fix for improperly installed windows
You seem like a very nice guy and I understand the frustration. I give the company credit for trying to resolve the issue. It's hard to tell what or why you are getting water.
Did a different company install that siding ?
