Window Update
I just got back from a meeting with the architects, and I’ve got a few updates to share.
First, we’ve decided on the windows – it’s looking like we’ll be going with Marvin Integrity windows throughout. They have pultruded fiberglass frames, plus dual sealed insulating glass with an Argon gas fill, and a Low E II coating (which means they’re all Energy Star rated). We got a range of quotes from a number of sources and for the price vs performance, the Integrity windows were the best option by far. Grand total is $23,860.03.
Because we decided upon the Integrity windows, we also needed to alter our elevations to accommodate their standard sizes. For the most part, everything is pretty much the same – however, the width of the living room windows changed considerably, and we also needed to separate the large clerestory window into 2 separate units. It definitely changes the overall appearance, but I’m still quite happy with it.
