can someone recommend a contractor that servicees OKNA in nyc. Looking to install 8 windows (4 double hung & 4 basement windows) and am looking at the OKNA 400 series. I read a lot of reviews on this board on OKNA windows and am considering the 400 series based on budget / quality.
Btw, is there a significant difference between their basic model vs the deluxe? Looking their website and see they have several models with the basic having a U-factor of .46 vs the deluxe at .26.
Thanks

Re: OKNA NYC contractor recommendation
The dx (deluxe) package is a great bundle of high-performance low-e & argon gas, foam filled frame and sashes, and locking screens. Highly recommend it as the non-dx package would at the least need the "energy package" (low-e argon) for heated/AC applications. Basement units most likely don't need any.
Re: OKNA NYC contractor recommendation
Thanks. is the energy package (ESP)?
