Jeld-Wen Auralast wood not available with aluminum cladding?
A local Jeld-Wen dealer told me today that their treated Auralast wood is only available with all-wood windows. Any windows that are clad with aluminum can't be ordered with Auralast. Can any of you confirm this?
Auralast
I can confirm the opposite. All of their pine windows (they have some other woods too) are made of Auralast. Jeld-Wen as you probably know has bought up many window companies, and markets them all under the same Jeld-Wen label. They have for their high end the window formerly known as Pozzi, their medium brands which were formerly known as Caradco and Norco, and their "builder grade" window formerly Wenco. Even their low end builder grade window, which is clad only, has Auralast.
Perhaps they have made a change recently and stopped offering Auralast on everything, but I don't know about it and I didn't authorize it . Even their websites show the clad units as having it.
