Re: Is this installation information correct?
No, but you are choosing low price over quality on the window, so may as well do the same on the install, right?

Re: Vinyl failing on new windows
Time for an update. Builder has been dragging feet on response and I wanted them to resolve other issues before I revive this issue again. I ended up calling the manufacturer and the rep who answered the phone was very friendly and open with the facts. I got an audio recording of an admission that ...

Re: Incorrectly framed new window installation
Is that a 1 story home? But yes...this was not done correctly. Hey, it is not a 1 story home. Why do you ask? Update: I brought the issue up to my " contractor " and provided a diagram of what it should look like which he complied and corrected it but then after he corrected the issue cam...

Re: Incorrectly framed new window installation
This work was not done by a contractor. Get your money back right away and hire someone qualified. I'm sure it will probably cost a lot more, and for good reason.

Re: 4 Quotes - Okna, Sunrise, Andersen- Cheaper alternatives?
The Sunrise and Okna options should be your only two choices. Don't skimp, this is an investment that will last decades.

Re: Screen removal on older Gapco Chung unit
Ahh, the old Gapco Chung window. The predecessor to the Gapco Wang. I prefer the former.
Got any pics to advise on the screen design?

Re: Joyce Trinity vs Sunrise Vanguard V3000 vs Softlite Imperial Elite triple pane
Its a franchise. Almost none of them are run by people who know the industry and their business practices are a gimmick. They are typically "entrepreneurs" that bought a window franchise because it has higher profit margins than papa johns or zippy discount dry cleaning. They are generally...

Re: Joyce Trinity vs Sunrise Vanguard V3000 vs Softlite Imperial Elite triple pane
Find another Softlite dealer. Someone in your area probably offers the Elements, and there could be another Elite dealer as well. I would NEVER recommend going with a fake window company like Zen.

Re: OKNA 800 ENVIRO STAR VS SUNRISE RESTORATION
I don't understand how this is a question? What am I missing here? If you are outside of Milwaukee, you must be dealing with Homesealed, they aren't a small company and they come highly recommended. I've seen them on top 500 lists for years. Better window, better reputation, and a huge discount, dec...
