Re: Replacing casement windows in Illinois (project thread)
We've decided on the White/White Sunrise Casement with Apex Glass Package, OptiView Screens. We'll be putting an awning window above our kitchen sink where there are twin lite casements now.

Re: Replacing casement windows in Illinois (project thread)
Met with Dave today, great guy. Working on some quotes with him now and trying to make up my mind with what I want product go with. Okna and Sunrise seem like the standouts to me, but deciding between the two and evaluating cost/performance/etc. is going to take awhile. Money is definitely a concern...

Re: Replacing casement windows in Illinois (project thread)
How do the prices look to everyone? I've talked with some friends who have done window/door projects recently that say there is quite a bit of overhead and wiggle room on the price. I dont want to impede on the quality of the work, but at the same time- I dont want to overpay by thousands if all I ...

Here are some impressions on the windows: Sunrise - ~$10,500 for Ultra U+ glass (double pane argon .26 U-Factor) LOVED ...

Re: Replacing casement windows in Illinois (project thread)
The double pane argon (Ultra U+ Glass) in the Sunrise is already at the top of my budget...it already seems like a pretty efficient window with regards to the tightness of the seal (DP-70/ .004 CFM). Would I be that much better off if I stretched for the top of the line glass from Sunrise?
