We have a house with all Pella windows. The windows have been in for 10 years and have a 20 year seal warranty. I contacted Pella on there website regarding a very small bathroom window and the site said I'd receive a response in 1 week, it took over a month. I was then asked to submit a photo which I did and measure the glass are, which I also did. Then I receive a contract for $490.99. The photo clearly showed a haze or film between the sealed glass panes. They respond: "No, because this is not a seal failure. If there was a seal failure there would be condensation between the two panes of glass." I respond To Natalie and the operations manager: "Hi Natalie/ Cam"
Now I'm really confused.
There is a film/haze between the 2 layers glass, how can this not be a seal failure.
At my last house which had Pollard windows this happened 2 times and they called it a seal failure, replaced the windows and only charged me the service call.
Cam I'd like you're input here please.
I have sent about 4 emails since to both of them with no response. It appears they do not wish to hour their warranty.
