Every time I called it was a new person and they had no record of me calling the previous numerous times!!!! Unbelievable company. Worst customer service I have ever come across and they don't stand behind their products.
I have doors from them also that don't lock. I have Velcro strips on them to keep the French doors shut in the living room and the breakfast room! My advice is to stay clear of these people unless you just have money to throw away. We should file a class action suit people. Overall quality: 5 Locks: 4 Balance System: 4 Warranty: 5. I had an all new Jeld-Wen casement window installed in my bathroom 3 years ago.
It has performed flawlessly and been a terrific improvement over the old double hung. I have a couple of nit-picks.

In fact, dual-pane windows with dissimilar glass can achieve STC ratings nearly as high, if not as high, as triple-pane or laminated glass.
Consider that an average exterior wall of a stick-built home has an STC rating between 34 and An STC 34 brings the windows up to the level of most of the outside envelope of the home. Anything higher is impractical because, while sound might not enter via the windows, it will just as easily enter through the lower-performing exterior walls.
Clearly three panes of glass are better than one, right? Not necessarily. In many cases, a triple-pane window has smaller air spaces between the panes of glass. These smaller airspaces are less than optimal for sound control and often create a reverberation in the sound waves that amplifies the sound level and cancels out any beneficial effects a third pane of glass provides.
The main purpose for laminated glass is to guard against high-wind environments where impact resistance is required. In some cases, however, laminated glass can offer a slight around one point STC improvement.
If meeting an architectural specification that requires, for example, an STC 35 instead of the STC 34 you might meet with dissimilar glass, laminated glass may be necessary. Be advised, though: laminated glass can add between 30 percent and 50 percent to the cost of the window, making it a fairly impractical solution from a cost perspective.
