Default Pella windows not warrrented w/EIFS



-------------------------------------

I have new construction and have a concern with PELLA windows. In the fine
print it says"PELLA products "should not" (in bold letters) be used in a
barrier systems, which do not allow for proper management of moisture
within the wall systems, such as Exterior Insulation Finish Systems (EIFS)
(also known as synethic stucco) or simular systems. So if any EIF is used
they are out of being responsible as far as I read -if there is any
leakage or other problems.
Any comments problems encountered. I shy away from these windows now
since I am looking t Stucco real and EIF with an inch of sheathing.
