@@HoustonWindowExperts from what I was told by a local building supply, Pella, in our area, only sells through their showrooms(?)That is fine for us, we will be installing them ourselves, so a hard sales pitch won’t do them any good! I’m just happy to have a place to go where I can see and operate the windows. So many small businesses don’t have much to see in person, that’s why I wish a place like yours existed here(unless you know of something).

Vinyl windows tend to have great air leakage ratings because the material itself can be fitted tighter into the frames. A wood sash, an aluminum sash, a fiberglass sash, tend to be harder to open and close if they were fitted very tightly. With vinyl being so flexible and compliant, the sash on a vinyl window can fit tighter inside the frame and get great air leakage ratings. Don't forget, even the worst of the good air leakage ratings is amazing compared to what we had 10 years ago.

@@HoustonWindowExperts And remember that construction standards have changed a lot with what building scientists have learned. It’s common now to build homes with air leakage rates of 1.0 air changes per hour at 50 pascals in a blower door test. Get the house tight and introduce fresh air with an ERV or HRV is now the common practice. So air tight windows are very important especially to get U values of 0.20 in homes built with 2x6 walls and R23 insulation in walls and R60 in attic. Plygem has had a push to make 0.20 u value or R5 windows the standard.

@@HoustonWindowExperts Pella Products are lifetime warranty against wood rot, decay, insects, mold and warping. Part of the reason is Pella dip treats the wood after the last cuts have been made and before assembly. No exposed ends. You would have to sand down those windows quite a bit to get to the unfinished wood where the Enduragaurd wood solution didn't penetrate. Pella is the only company that gives lifetime warranty on wood products.

What are the differences between the 4 upper end lines for French doors from Pella? Reserve, Architect, Lifestyle, Hurricane shield. They all seem like the same base door to me. I just want a simple door, no grids, out swing with Multi point and code requires minimum DP 50 (non impact rated). I was quoted both hurricane shield and Reserve and they were within a few hundred dollars of each other, but to me looking online at pictures they all look about the same. So our logic is to go with Reserve which I was told is their highest end of doors they offer. Just seems confusing to have so many product lines that dont seem that different.

Hi Jeff!. Moved into my new build 6 months ago. Pella double hung and some are not closing all the way and now I have mold. Being in Wisconsin, the frost literally needs to be scrapped off on some of them. My issue is, the Pella reps have been out and will find anything to discredit the fact that there is an issue. We have window coverings, we have plants, etc. That is just crazy!. The builder even came in and said these should secure lock and not move. Mine do not. There is slop for the window to move up and down as well as the top and bottom window do not close to be even and sealed. The builder thought it was a "Spring" adjustment in the foam pads on either side in the window. With your knowledge, is this an issue?. They are coming back tomorrow and will be interesting to see what they say this time. I have left the mold on all of the windows effected. Any advise would be much appreciated!. Thank You! Steve

Steve, I am so sorry to hear that you're going through this issue. I would never say that window manufacturers don't mess up, because they do. That could be the case with your windows and I think you need to seek legal counsel sooner than later. There are certain guidelines that are required within the law for you to protect yourself. In some states you have to act in writing within a specified period of time. Obviously I'm not a lawyer, but that may be your next step if you cannot get a solution. There is one other possibility, it is possible that your windows were installed incorrectly and that is causing the issues. Trust me, I see that almost every day. If you need to, see if you can bring in a third party to do an evaluation for you. Let me know how things turn out.

Not a fan of that plastic trim on the inside of the Impervia. It is a cheap plastic glazing around the glass on an expensive window. Wish they took not from Marvin and just left off the plastic.

These “traditional” windows of various brands and their thick frames look like insert windows. Many old houses had window frames beneath the exterior trim / casing which made the sashes look thin. Unlike these where you see every bit of the frame thickness.

Frame depth is really just a function of the window, it's not as though they are made for a particular wall thickness. Considering that you have 2x6 walls, most windows should work for you.

@@chrisginoc Milgard makes a nice vinyl product, but fails miserably (in my experience) when it comes to service. Andersen makes a nice composite product. Their 100 Series is a big upgrade from vinyl. I would see if you have access to Amsco windows if you are looking into vinyl. If you want an upgrade from vinyl look at Andersen 100 Series or Marvin Essential.

The cameraman needs to keep focus on the product and not the presenter. Camera wandering away from the focal point of the features and parts of the windows. Drives me crazy.
