AlGreen, Definitely check out your Virginia contractor. Although he's probably fine, there may be window contractors in Virginia who are so disreputable that they have had their license revoked. (But for all I know, may still be trying to do business). Do a web search on the contractor's name -- it ...

It was a Schuco rep who said this. I am comparing the Schuco Corona 4000 (triple-paned, Krypton) to the Gorell 5100 Thermal (triple-paned, Krypton). As an aside -- is there any way to tell what % the Gorell window is filled with krypton? (I'm guessing not). And if the seal starts to break down, and ...

Gorell vs. Schuco -- a comparison
Gentlemen, When speaking with a window contractor about Gorell vs. Schuco, he stated: "The biggest potential problem with vinyl windows is seal failure because of expansion and contraction. Schuco has eliminated this problem with the TPS Max spacer system. The other big advantage is they use UP...

Guys -- sorry for beating this issue to death. I took what you said into account. I even called the Gorell corporate office, and spoke to someone who told me (a) the 5300 has more vinyl extrusions (more vinyl in the window); (b) the master frame is foam-filled (so better insulation) (c) the exterior...

I don't know anything about the sills on the 5100, that was never mentioned by the salesman. I'm replacing all the windows in my house (about 20 windows, and 2 sliding glass doors). Some have broken seals, others seem like they are in the process of going. (Windows are 11 years old, and were put in ...

I don't really think he's trying to trick me (although I guess I'll never know for sure) -- I think he's just not as knowledgeable about windows as the people on this forum. It's an unusual situation, but I'm still talking to him because I'd save several thousand vs. the corresponding Schuco windows...

Gorell windows -- models 5100 vs. 5300
Can anyone tell me the difference? A salesman is telling me these two models are identical (and is pushing the 5100), but in my head I'm thinking "if they're identical, why is there a separate model #?"
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.

For all those who sell Schuco windows
Gentlemen, I am a frustrated homeowner who is interested in replacing his windows. After spending much time on this site (and its sister site), you've convinced me that Shuco windows are the best. I'd like to get some prices on replacing the windows in my home. (I live in Maryland). However, when I ...

Caulk
Gentlemen, In a previous post I seem to recall that "Novaflex" caulk was recommended. However, when I called the guys who will install my Schuco windows, they say they use "OSI Quad Sealant". They wll be happy to switch to Novaflex, but feel that OSI Quad Sealant is superior. You...

Criteria for a good installer
Gentlemen, I've already selected my windows (Schuco) and chosen a distributor, and am just waiting for my windows to be manufactured. However, as I review the posts on this board, I see a lot of comments on how I will be unhappy with my windows, even though they are quality windows, if the installer...
