Custom vinyl replacements ran me about $400 installed. Priced was
comparable among all quotes for top line window (self- cleaning!!)
House was cooler in summer and far less drafty in winter. I'm having
more done soon. Costly but well worth it!!

Or, if you have specifics - a custom vinyl window with a pane in the

I don't mind paying for a decent job but I got nothing to go on and

Windows and doors are not made to a standard or made equal, there is
the cheap stuff thats cheap, and then the good stuff that insulates,
seals wind and lasts.www.energystar.govmight start you in a

summers, the best glass will pay for itself. Or I can give you joe

clears.
