So the fiberglass line was sold back to Alpen, and now the vinyl line is sold back to Kensington... Looks like Serious is done with the window biz.

Good riddance. Now if we could just get rid of their enablers.

I wonder what happens with the warranty?

Most likely the two companies that bought their company back from Serious will honor the warranties, though to be sure you should call if you have their windows.
Or, you could call the White House and ask for the warranty department. :P

If they do that, that will be a nice shift as compared to some previous window company purchases. Just saying... :roll:

Now who could you be referring to? :? I still say that's was one of the worst thought out purchases ever made in this industry, and definitely the worst executed.

True dat.
I just figured since they both have been the owners of their companies for all but a couple years they might cover the warranties. Otherwise, what do they say?... our warranty is good for all windows made before 2010 and after 2012? That would be awkward.
Hopefully, Serious put a monetary allowance in the sale to allow for future warranty items by those who recently bought windows.

Yes that would be awkward. Kind of like telling homeowners that the validity of their lifetime warranty depends on the loyalty of their installing contractor to the company who now owns their manufacturer.
