House windows? -besides pella

[streak]

Call Bob Rhodes at M Rhodes Company http://www.mrhodesco.com/#!windows/cunn A truly legit guy that uses the same installer every time. The install is just as important as the window itself. My other suggestion is window world, their warranty cant be beat.

You get what you pay for. Our 5' Anderson double pane roll outs have remained sealed since they were installed in 82.

No, no they are not. General aluminum windows are absolutely the biggest pieces of **** windows available. Our house was built in 2003, we've had all of the windows replaced under warranty (10 years) due to broken seal and moisture forming between the panes, the new windows, less than 3 years old have the same problem. You can drive through my neigborhood and pick out the houses with General Aluminum windows because those are the windows that are fogged. I have actually considered contacting the neighbors and trying to organaize a lawsuit against General Aluminum. I guess that I should talk to that JB Brooks fella.

I don't doubt it. About 90-95% of window problems are from incorrect installation. I put several in my house and I'm going to finish my house with all of them. Of course I'm installing them myself. Neighbor had had his GA's forever with no problems.

I would NOT use Pella.
I had 3 Pella windows with the wood rott out in them in less than 10 years and they are really expensive to get replacement wood for.
