which window is more energy efficient, Paella, andersen or Morris tripple pane with krypton?
They are all replacements ,Morris says that they have 50 yr limited guarantee, glass breakage protection as long as you own house, 50% less energy consumption. Anyone has hade experience with them?

- Some window manufacturers select which windows to have tested for energy effiency, this means they choose which ones to have tested.
Pella and Andersen have random tests - any unit can be pulled for testing and rating at any time.
I can't imagine this Morris window (never heard of it) having a better rating on any kind of testing than Andersen or Pella - it's just not going to happen.
The word L i m i t e d in a guarantee also is just that limited.
Get an actual copy of the Morris guarantee and read every line.
Regional window manufacturers are a dime a dozen. I have put in a lot of windows, Pella,Andersen,Crestline,Peachtree,
Marvin,Weather Shield. You can never go wrong with a quality window backed by not only a great warranty but by a great reputation. Pella and Andersen have their own techs who come out to resolve any problems you might have with their products, the others I mentioned probably also have that service. Stick with a good window - All these fly by night window companies have to do if they have a widespread problem with their windows is go out of business and start up again with a new name. They have done it many times.
Don't be fooled - a warranty or guarantee is only as good as the company is.
