That's not Schuco . Let's be fair here. That was an independant contractor who just happened to sell schuco as one of his window brands. Would you could call him Alcoa or GAF if he sold alcoa siding or GAF shingles? He is not any part of Schuco. We as dealers have no financial ties to Schuco the co...

That rumor is an old rumor with no truth to it and has been addressed here several times. The rumor was started by a disgruntled factory rep trying to do some damage after he lost his job. Schuco is a thriving $2 billion+ a year company in over 70 countries worldwide. You have nothing to worry abou...

Buyers Beware! Avoid Nu-View at all cost! They don't deliver. They don't place the order when you give them the deposit. They hold onto the money for months. I have yet to have my contract fulfilled nor has my deposit been returned and I signed my contract in 2005! I am not alone though, there are ...

I would be interested in knowing wether either of you went out and looked at other jobs by the company before buying. I'm not trying to be negative just honestly curious, it amazes me how few people will take the time to drive to 3 or 4 houses to see real completed jobs as opposed to just comparing...

this just goes to show everyone out there that just because you have a good window and you do your own "research" and after hours and hours and hours of deliberating and thinking you made a good choice and an educated decision, and heard good things about the company you selected in the e...

There were a couple of issues that plagued this job. -The initial crew saved the hardest most sensitive window for the end of the day and rushed just a little bit. The window was not square in all dimensions, most notably the sash tilted downward which made opening either window very difficult. They...

Re: Reply

Do you have blinds or shades that are often closed on these windows? If so, keep them cracked open a bit to allow air flow behind them. Also, do you have an adjacent master bath that you typically use for showering? Aprroximately a gallon of water from a 5 gallon shower ends up in the air as water ...
