| I had three Marvin Integrity All-Ultrex (all fiberglass) windows installed. One of them bows inward on one side (vertical). The instructions say do NOT screw through the fiberglass!
I intended to install shims every foot or so, and then insert screws. What to do?? I was going to do the same on both sides of all three windows so they would look uniform. Thanks. |

| Seems to me if you had defective windows, you'd have the guy who installed them take them out and return them for ones that aren't bowed. |

| Do they have the factory applied extension jambs or the standard 2" jambs? |

| I installed one of these integrity windows in my house. If the fiberglass is truly bowed then I am sure that Marvin would come out and replace for you. I had a few minor issues with my window and they came out and replaced the entire sash in 5 mins. It would be hard for me to believe the way the window was installed would cause the fiberglass to bend. Those windows are solid and light. Steve |
