Re: Window Replacement Information
Many have previously expressed interest in replacing your unit's windows.

We are now ready to start accepting orders.

If you still desire to replace your windows please follow this process outlined below:

1. Complete and return the attached contract

2. Include a check for the full amount of the purchase. Checks should be made out to "The Lauren, A Condominium". Checks are the only method of payment that will be accepted.

3. Deadline for receipt of contract and checks is JUNE 15, 2016.

Since the initial announcement of this program came out there has been one significant clarification on the replacement process. It has to do with window treatments (blinds, curtains, shades, draperies etc.) that exist. Advanced Window (who is actually replacing the windows) notes that the below is not part of their scope of work. Please note the following:

1. Any existing window treatments will have to be removed prior to the removal of old windows.

2. You have the option of doing so yourself or hiring an outside firm to assist. Advanced Window has recommended:

Shade & Shutter Sales: Attention-- Don Glass
202.783.7860 or 703.651.0358
buyshades@gmail.com and shadeandshuttersales.com

Please contact Mr. Glass directly to obtain pricing or to answer specific questions you might have.

3. Advanced Windows has advised that reattaching treatments directly to windows would void the warranty as it relates to the attachment if a problem occurred on the window that could be associated to the treatment attachment. Examples of possible problems include operability of the window, leakage at the head of the window and longevity of the window.

4. They strongly recommend that window treatments be attached to the concrete ceiling

As a reminder the bulk rate costs (30 windows required from the entire building) are $1,150 for a small two panel window; $1,550 for a large two panel window (found in the "14", "15", "16" tiers and in the living room of the "02" tier); and $ 1,750 for a three panel window. That pricing includes tax.

Please e-mail or call the manager if there are any questions.
