[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fiberglass. [/quote] We used normal fiberglass double-pane windows to replace several older windows. This was not more expensive than using the heavily marketed "Replacement by" windows and it meant we did not lose any light (The Replacement type windows block more light than a normal window would). Ours were Pella Impervia, but Andersen and Marvin have similar offerings in normal ("new construction") type windows. Significant noise reduction. Noticeably better insulation. Fiberglass does not shrink or swell as wood does. Fiberglass insulates better than wood or metal. Fiberglass can be painted, unlike vinyl. [/quote]
