I am in the process of choosing windows for a SIPS home to be built in
northern Minnesota.

Here are the things I have heard:

Contractor- Don't waste your money on Triple-pane, the house is so
well insulated that the difference in energy cost won't be worth it.
Also, triple panes means two areas where seals can fail.

On this site- Energy savings is the same because the insulation
advantage of the triple-pane is countered by the fact that it reflects
more energy.

Friends - Dorwin (sp?) triple-paned have been great.

Friend - Really like H-window triple paned



I am looking for more advice. Thanks

The better insulated the rest of the home is the bigger difference that
tipple pane will make. In your area I would put them in myself. It is not
just energy saving, but it is also comfort level. Somehow I suspect the
contractor get's his best deal (most profit to him) for double pane.
