New Windows

New double-hung windows were purchased from and installed by Window World of the Capital District on November 16th, on a cold and foggy Tuesday. Contract details have been underway for a few months.
Removal of the old windows occurred from the outside. Units came out whole. The contractor crew of Jay, Charles and Shaun kept the entire area neat, with no shard remnants. Lead paint abatement was a surcharge in the contract.

With installation of the new windows, they clad the external window framing in white, wood-grained aluminum. This became specifically a very custom aspect of the installation.

Uncle Herman’s craftsman attitude was evident in the disassembly of the kitchen window. The glass was thick; the frames were tight and screwed-in to the framing. The heavy glass almost seemed like a structural member.

These replacement Series 2000 windows feature welded sashes to create strength & rigidity. The windows tilt-in for easy maintenance. The extruded vinyl lift rails add durability. The external window framing is clad in wood-grained aluminum.
Overall, the units never need scraping or painting.

In the kitchen is a 2 Lite Slider, which is also low maintenance, functional and energy-efficient. However, it is the most visible evidence of a change in design, but that was a decision of economics.

After all, it is camp.
