Renewal Replacement Windows By Andersen ?

May 05, 2014 3 Replies

Hello,



Regarding the "Renewal By Andersen" replacement windows:



a. who are you actually dealing with ?



Are these individual franchises ?



Who stands behind their warranty: the franchisee (if it is one) or the basic Andersen people ?



b. They make a very big deal in their TV ads that the windows are made from some material they call "Fibrex".



What is this Fibrex actually ?



Some sort of composite made from old pressed together something or other ?



c. If the Fibrex is so great, how come the windows from the basic Andersen folks don't seem to use it, and stick to basic wood ?



Worth considering ? Why ?



Any thoughts on these windows, and the folks that sell and install them, would be appreciated.



Thanks, Bob

It's called choice.

I like Anderson stuff, they stand behind their products, common and parts are available if needed.

You asked this question above. Why not ask the vendor?

I had an Anderson slider replaced a few years ago by the company that had installed them. After a couple years, I had noticed air leaking and found slider had warped. Installer had warranted for life and when he could not fix the seal, put in a new slider.
