Weathervane Window Issues
- Internal grids as thick as the inner airspace. This does not allow internal air circulation and actually creates a poorly insulated window as heat loss has a direct line: glass-metal-glass.
- The original square internal grids are difficult for some companies to match.
- Lack of maintenance by the homeowners—particularly an issue on wood-stop windows.
- Sealed sash construction on most Weathervane windows (not wood-stopped) makes it difficult to replace just the double pane glass unit. Only a few glass replacement companies have the ability or knowledge to replace them.
- Frames and sashes made of pine instead of fir. Pine is a soft, wide grained wood that is more prone to rot if not properly maintained
- Improper installation. A common installation mistake by builders was placing window frames directly upon a brick foundation without proper flashing.
