In June 2012, after being promised windows in 6-8 weeks, we put £10,000 down on triple glazed windows from http://www.adpol-gb.co.uk/.
We signed off details for 22 windows 11 July, with an agreement that 2 more large windows would be ordered later.
We finally received our windows December 20th.

More Clarification of Our Requirements

Alex,
We've reviewed your responses (thanks for being so quick), and have responses in turn:
1) We discussed in our visit Saturday child lock mechanisms which
would ensure the windows 'turn'-opened no more than a certain angle.
We understood those were included in your quote for all windows, can
you please confirm?

OK, those aren't quite what we imagined when we were there Saturday. We had imagined something built into your window mechanism, hidden in the frame or something. If these are the only option for turn restrictors, we'd rather omit them.
8) Pos. no 8 'Balcony door in kitchen' is currently listed as triple
glazed, toughened glass both sides. It and its fixed panel should be
only ECO68 double glazed, toughened both sides. As well, the door
should be larger, and the fixed panel smaller. The door width should
be 900mm and the fixed panel 500mm.
l/ if the door need to be in passive alurion profile with triple glazing - the fixed panel cannot be in different system - i think it can have doble glazing instead of triple - but it wont look nice - no connection between this two glazing while closed, don't you think? - i will correct the size of fixed panel/door
We meant we want both door and fixed panel beside it to be only ECO68 double glazed toughened -- so no mismatch.
t/ pos 16 - glazing is ESG means that is secure;
Great -- I was confused because sometimes the spec said ESGT for a few windows.
1/ because of changing few positions to the passive alurion with triple glazing/from passive to eko68 - price may change - passive alurion with triple glazing are more expensive
Understood, but note the big 3m x 4m sliding door and the kitchen balcony door are being changed from passive alurion to ECO68. Given the relative sizes, we would expect the overall cost to work out cheaper...
Looking forward to hearing back from you,
Regards,
Michael
