Discussion Board Forum for Vinyl Windows

Hi all! I was wondering if anyone might know which of the following window brand names, (if any,) use TPS technology (to seal in gas or air between panes,) as opposed to using dessicant, or other methods used in dealing with window moisture? Here are the window brands I am concentrating on/researchi...

Just wanted to drop a quick line to thank both Skydawggy and Henry5 for all of their help. I REALLY appreciate everything you've both done for me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! In reply to your question on whether I "requested a quote," Yes, Skydawggy, I just did that tonight. I'm...

I just caught that you live in Miami Dade area. That doesn't bother me a bit. Might you know someone who deals either up in Gainesville or in Jacksonville? If not, I'd still love to learn anything you could share regarding windows that are the most energy efficient, durable, etc. for Florida. It get...

Hi, I'm looking for the member called, "installationmaster." I'd like to talk with you because I live in Florida and read that you're here, too. I'd like to know where you are and if you might be able to help me. I'm in North Central Florida in a town called Gainesville. I am VERY interest...

Hi peeps... Sorry to butt in here but, doesn't "Super Spacer" by Edgetech beat Cardinal Glass, as long as you get the Thermo-plastic-seal (TPS) glazing instead of the descicant-filled Super Saver? This is just something I had in my notes... I, too, am in need of some windows to block the s...

Hi Skydawggy, I have no clue about Schuco's "issues" or history. Could you please, elaborate? I thought they made the best windows of all and were the largest manufacturer of windows in the world.(?) (I arrived at these assumptions by reading this forum from 2004 to Present.) Regarding the...

Skydawggy, Hi! I just want to thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for all of the tips and help you've given me. Thank You!!! I wrote down everything from your last entry. (I posted my last question about Schuco vs. Alside "Excalibur's" before I knew you had replied to my last post.) I ...

That's OK Skydawggy, I did my research and I'm not impressed with either of them, just so you know. Thanks for getting back with me, though. I appreciate your help and wisdom:-) Today, I finally found a dealer who sells brand names I've seen in this forum. I wanted to ask you and/or anyone else what...

Skydawggy, Hi. I sent you another post and you never got back to me. I wonder if I replied in the wrong place or something. Now it says you're online here, but I don't know how to find you. Well, today, I drove out to a window dealer in my town, and they only carried two types/brands of windows. The...

Hi Skydawggy, thanks for your hasty reply. I really appreciate it! I agree fully with you saying that I, "need to buy windows with the lowest Solar Heat Gain Coefficient AND the lowest U-Factor." I have decided to forfeit the sun's heat in winter because I will already be using the heat in...

Hi all! I'm new here. I've read the forum and wanted to send out my thanks to all of the experts and people with experiences. I really appreciate all of the knowledge, opinions and valuable help that's been shared here. I agree with whomever said, "The people are getting the truth through sites...
