Hello, I just got 2 quotes for the installation of 9 windows. Don Young 5200 series, Low E, Single Hung, U = 0.29, SHGC = 0.22 $4000 installed Grand View 400O series, Low E, Double Hung, U = 0.30, SHGC = 0.24 $5000 installed Both qualify for the 30% tax rebate. I haven't seen/heard too much other than what I can find on the manufacture's website. Both local installers seem great. Does anyone have any opinions on these two products and the prices? Summers here are hot about 115 for a few weeks. It averages 95 - 100 from June - Aug.
I'll take suggestions on other companies too, if I can find a dealer. I know that Progressive Windows is a local company. (tiltandturnwindows dot com) but I know they don't have as good of efficiency. Also I know a company here will sell Alside windows but I'm not sure what model or any of the U and SHGC ratings. I'm replacing my old aluminum single pane windows, some are busted and don't even stay up. I'm in the military so I'll only live here about 2 - 3 more years here and would like to recoup the money spent on resale and energy savings. I think having the new efficient and good looking windows won't hurt!

| Both of those windows are decent quality. I'm sure you would be satisfied with either. Installation is going to be a critical factor. |

| Don't know what part of the state you are located in but we used Holman Construction from Cordell. We bought Simonton windows. The installers are the fastest, cleanest and best I have ever seen. Their web link is below. |

| ccecilm - thanks for the link and recommendation that looks like a nice company. I live in Enid... about 3 hrs north of the Elk City / Cordell area I've talked with all of the window dealers/installers here and it seems like I have 4 Choices on manufactures: I'm thinking I'll go with the Don Young - two dealers install them here and now I have to narrow my choice down. |
