| Have a 5yr. old manufactured home with upgraded KINRO windows. What problems!! Needing to replace a few. One windows string and spring broke that never worked right even after paying to have someone with supposed knowledge install new parts!
Question, what replacement window ( vinyl low e glass) would be an affordable choice? I actually have another one of the same size that is coming apart that should be replaced as well! A few are such bears to close and some close so nicely! So much for the expensive upgrade! Also, is there any harm if we tint some of these not so great windows since they are low e? We like to see the view, but want a bit of privacy when the lights are on. Thanks much! |

| bookert, As far as the privacy at night goes, I suggest new windows with blinds in between the glass or window treatments. I don't know the desired effect you're looking to create. You can even get vinyl replacement windows with blinds in between the glass. Most affordably are vinyl low E with argon gas replacement windows. There are many brands to choose from but they all look basically the same. I beleive whats in the choice is the reputation of the dealer, how long he has been in business and most importantly his installers. DO some research in your area, look at some of their jobs and you'll be able to decide for yourself. Good Luck All the Best The PorchGuy |
