Jeld-Wen Premium Vinyl vs Marvin Integrity Ultrex-Wood
Comments (19)I think your GC is a little off. We just did a high end house with Integrity/Wood. Unless they have changed recently, the Ultrex/Wood looks a lot nicer on the outside also. See the link below to our house. The Wood/Ultrex turned out really well. These pics are at the end of construction, they look even better now. I have had these for a little over a year now and am very pleased with them. Our builder leaned towards "cheaper" windows also (he preferred WIndsor). To me, Windows are one of the most important aspects of construction. You are talking $5k or so on an $800k house. Don't scrimp on windows, doors or plumbing fixtures.

Comments (12)A-Series has a fibrex frame and a fiberglass clad sash. This is from Andersen's brochure on the A-Series for professionals. There is no reason why fibrex should fail any sooner than fiberglass. It is completely immune to water, just as is fiberglass. The advantage of A-series is that it is available in a number of deep colors, Marvin Integrity has a much more restricted palette of exterior colors. We are probably going to go with the A-series because of color choice. Otherwise, I would definitely go with the Marvin Integrity. That said, I see no reason to fear fibrex as a material, it has been in use for quite some time.

Comments (5)I would use Azek for the exterior flat casing. In the past I probably would have recommended the 200 series over the All Ultrex and Simonton but as I am not as familiar with Andersen any longer and there new products (or renamed Builders Select or whatever the 200 actually is) I really cannot be certain. While not the prettiest girl at the dance I would be inclined to lean towards the Ultrex today were it me. As far as the slider if I remember correctly you had a fairly large wall area and I would look seriously at a 12' wide door....See MoreIntegrity Wood-Ultrex vs Anderson 400 or E-series??
Comments (6)I would be surprised to see the 400 Series TW have more air infiltration than almost any other tilting window. It has a jambliner that actively pushes against the sash, vs relying on passive weatherstrip for the sash to slide along. In fact, that is a selling point of the TW for me. Being on the service side of it for the past 15+ years, I really appreciate a well-installed TW. The downside for me is less wood showing on the interior vs the vinyl jambliner....See Morefridge2020
