Sierra Pacific windows
Comments (2)A neighbor put in SP windows in her new contruction adobe home and is not happy with them. Her 8 ft. sliders don't slide properly and although she has had the representative out a couple of times nothing seems to help. Also, on another slider it doesn't "catch" properly to lock and overall she said she wouldn't use them again. I know she said there was something she didn't like about the windows but I can't remember exactly what that was....See MoreAndersen E series came in lower than Sierra Pacific Aspen?
Comments (39)Hey. It’s me again! I just thought a round-up/semi-conclusion to this thread would be nice for anyone else struggling to make this same decision. Our house will be finished in another month. I went with all 366 windows. The dealer and the builder thought I was crazy for ever questioning it, FWIW. Here’s my takeaway: The visible light transmission reduction is noticeable. It’s not terrible but it is a slight bummer. The solar heat gain coefficient is no joke. I stood in front of the giant south facing window on a cold sunny day in black leggings and never warmed up. My black leggings were cool to the touch. A dog looking for a warm spot would be very disappointed with 366 windows. That said, I’m assuming it will do a good job of keeping the heat out in the summer. I just wanted to chime in and affirm that these ARE noticeable things. They are real trade offs. The jury is still out for me as to whether I made the right choice. But I’m certain my furniture and floors will be happy with the 366....See MoreSierra Pacific H3 vs Windsor Pinnacle windows and slider
Comments (4)Stick with the 400's. I could not recommend either if the others, and personally the 400's would be a stretch for me....See MoreWestchester by Sierra Pacific Vs. Marvin Ultimate?
Comments (4)Personally I cannot see how anyone could claim that anything S/P is better than Marvin. Even your S/P Dealer stated that the Marvin's are a step above. No brainer in my opinion....See Moremillworkman
