Episode Transcript

(00:02):
Windows are very important.
We wanna be able to see and keep our houses comfortable and so forth.
So we need the light and we need windows that are very efficient.
And so we just don't need windows.
We need quality windows.
So I asked a quality window company Lyndol from Woodruff Windows to join me today to talk about quality windows.

(00:24):
Hey Lyndol,
how are you doing,
buddy?
I'm fantastic.
Thank you so much.
So,
um not all windows are created equal,
are they?
No,
definitely not.
Yeah.
And so it's important to have a quality window.
I want to talk about what one might find in a quality window.
Well,

(00:45):
I think one of the obviously the most important component is the insulated glass unit that goes into the construction of the window.
Um window manufacturers,
of course,
make frames,
that's what they do.
They make frames and they outsource um The in the glass units that go into the frame,
there is a insulated glass manufacturer called cardinal cardinal insulated glass units.

(01:10):
They are the absolute leader in insulated glass units.
A very high quality sealed with argon insulated glass unit.
The performance of that glass is outstanding,
the science and the technology in the,
in the low e in the Argon and how it's sealed is second to none.
So,
uh,
we only install windows that have cardinal glass.

(01:33):
We will not install a window that does not have cardinal glass and some of them don't use cardinal glass to cut corners and costs and all that.
It's not wise.
So that's always the first,
the first thing I look for is glass.
So as a homeowner now that you know this,
everybody,
you might want to ask what type of glass and you might wanna request Cardinal Glass 100%.

(01:57):
And a lot of the frame manufacturers,
they uh white label it,
they get it through Cardinal,
but it's got the,
it's got its own name for it.
Um So a lot,
a lot of the window manufacturers that are on the higher end,
the big,
the bigger name brands,
uh they,
they all use Cardinal Glass.
Um So really like to stick to Cardinal Glass and you know,

(02:18):
the,
the parts and pieces that make up the frame where they source the vinyl from where they get the fi you know how the fiberglass is made.
A lot of those things play into,
into consideration.
So we want to make sure that the parts and pieces that the window is made up of are quality material and not just little pieces of plastic.

(02:39):
Yeah.
And what's really important with what you guys do Lyndal is,
is that you,
you really care,
you've done the research on the best glass and frames and you really care about the customer and the quality and you don't sell junk.
And so if someone wants to buy a real junkie window,

(03:00):
you're probably not the right company for that.
No.
And I,
I'll,
I'll tell them,
you know,
there's a,
there's a,
a bare minimum that we stick to when it comes to quality level.
I will not go under that level of quality.
You know,
we stick to that one product for the,
for most of the jobs that we do.
Um,

(03:20):
we've been with that same manufacturer for years and a lot of research and they produce the best quality vinyl frame,
energy efficient window in the area that you can get.
And the price is very,
very fair.
It's more on the lower end as opposed to way high end pricing.
So I like to stick to them because it's,
it's a really high quality window for a lower lower price,

(03:43):
which means great value and everyone loves value.
Yes,
100%.
And you know,
you can have the best quality window in the world,
but really it depends on the install.
If it's,
you know,
if it's not installed properly,
then it's not gonna perform,
right.
So that's what,
you know,
we great quality window and amazing quality install coupled together.

(04:04):
You're in,
you're in great hands with us.
So yeah,
sounds like all state.
