Anyone been installing garden / greenhouse windows lately?
I like the things, though I've never installed one yet. A customer wanted one but when she heard the price for the window alone was $990, she decided she couldn't afford it. That was a Harvey Industries window. Just for fun, I got a quote from Lowe's (the window would be made by Accu-Weld) at $810 for the same size. (Of course quality might differ.)
Those are all vinyl. I've heard that aluminum garden windows are popular in other climates but that manufacturers don't like to sell them in the northeast due to problems with breakdown in temperature variations in less than mild climates. Those folks in other areas, do you install aluminum garden windows?
