Silverline = defective product!

04/16/2007 11:42 PM shdoug10

Hello,

I registered to this forum JUST so I could tell you all how much these windows SUCK!!! My 32-year-old aluminum, government issued sliders were better than these Silverlines I have in my brand new home. These windows are so bad it's almost like they are not there. I can hear EVERYTHING that happens outside. On a windy day they leak air terribly such that it gets humid in the house in the summer and dry and cold in the winter. The seal basically doesn't. The glass does do a great job of keeping the heat down so I would recommend them if you live in Arizona, as long as there are no dogs within 5 miles because you WILL hear them bark. I can talk to my wife through the glass just like it isn't there. I can hear my neighbors talking inside their house with ours and their Silverlines all closed! Look at the seals. It's a flimsy little piece of fuzzy stuff. How can that possible block air? IT'S FUZZ!!! So in summary: loud, cold, and leaky. If that's what you want in a window, buy these.
