rmit, The units would have a warranty against seal failure. Of more conern to me is that you are going to try and just caulk them in. Most all mfg have a stop to hold the glass in place, even old putty glazed single panes have glazing points. Yuo must make sure that the IG unit is compatible with an...

which prism model diid you see.
I do not remember which is equal but you need to be at the reflection 5500 series level at least then get a comparable glazing package.

Looks like a good price to me.

I don't think over vinyl.
But you should consider them.

As others have stated if you water them and snack them a little they will appreciate it and go an extra mile for you.
Remember you get more flies with honey than without it.
If you are pleased with the work when they are done $10 to each and they should be grateful.

Well, I would say never have HD or any other big box do your project, to much of a crap shoot, also price is higher than getting the best local independant.

We can help in general, but the nitty gritty is best teased out by your local professional installer/contractor.

Try stry-buc.

She has it all figured out.
She seems to speaking at times about thermal exspansion in the IG spacer.
As for the other, I have been in the industry for 30 years and have not seen any problems with exspansion in mid to high quality units.

If you have a great glass package and bad infiltration it will not feel good.
But you are right about a blind fold. Is there a discernable difference? It is a blend of fit, function, beauty, and budget.
Being the consumer you get to pick the blend that is rigth for you.

You wont notice it 345 nights of the year.

You will be happy and well served by either choice.
