Ask for advice - New windows for a single family house

We need to replace 15 windows of our house.  They’re very old so not worth to repair.  We’re looking at Therma Star by Pella. Any recommendations for window, installer and good tips!? Thanks in advance.

I purchased Pella Impervia Windows about 5 years ago for my new house and I am very satisfied with their services. So you can try it. It’s totally done by Modern Glass Designs Company. You can contact with them for your window replacement.

Marvin Windows is probably your best bet.  Follow the link to the NY Times article on what kind of company Marvin is:   http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/25/business/economy/housing-slump-forces-cuts-at-a-small-town-company.html?pagewanted=all I installed Marvin Windows on several projects and was very happy with them and the installer Ferris Construction.

If you are tired of drafts, get tilt & turn windows.
