We finally got the guy out here (Thursday, after two appointments that he no-showed without calling us) to measure the windows we wanted to try to get on this round. We had him measure four windows, two on the north side and two on the south side. If we got them all replaced, it would set us up for some nice straight-through ventilation on mild days.
Yesterday, Home Depot called and said they were ready to talk to us about choosing the windows we want. We went out there in the early afternoon, and after looking at the options we chose the Anderson Low-E windows, and were able to afford three of them on this order. We’ll still get the ventilation, because two of the replacements are going on the north side, and we already had two windows replaced on the south side. This is huge progress – to the tune of $1,340 USD.
Oh, and another thing. Window World took 6-8 weeks (that was the official estimate – the last window we got from them was ordered in early October and wasn’t installed until the end of January) to prepare a window for installation. Home Depot is getting our Anderson windows in about half the time – 3-5 weeks.
It’s awesome. I hope the installation is fast and goes off without a hitch.
