We’re starting a new series on the BM Windows blog, and it’s all about replacement window warranties. We are well aware that very few people read the warranties on any of the products they purchase. There’s just too much small print and hard-to-understand legal jargon for most people to spend the time reading them. For many products, it’s not vital that you understand the warranty, but for large purchases like replacement windows and doors, you definitely want to know what’s included (and not included) in the warranty. When it comes to replacement windows, warranties can vary quite a bit. You can buy windows with a 5- or 10-year warranty that covers very little, or a double lifetime warranty that covers just about any problem you can imagine. Here at BM Windows in San …

What Should I Look for in a Replacement Window Warranty?
This is a really important question that isn’t asked nearly enough, in our opinion. The warranty that comes with the replacement windows you buy should definitely be a part of your purchasing decision—especially if you plan to be in your home for a while. Just about every replacement window on the market comes with some sort of warranty, but the terms in them can actually vary quite a bit. The coverage period can also vary. Some warranties only cover the windows for five years, while others will cover the windows for as long as the original purchaser owns the home. The best window warranties offer a lifetime warranty that can also be transferred to the next owner of the home. These are called double lifetime warranties. Some manufacturers also include coverage for accidental glass …
How BM Windows Takes the Anlin Warranty and Makes It Even Better
Anlin Windows, a brand that we sell and highly recommend to San Diego homeowners, touts its warranty as “The Best Warranty in the Industry.” That’s a pretty bold statement to make, but it’s actually true. On all of the lines of windows they sell, Anlin offers a True Double Lifetime Warranty. This warranty covers all the parts and labor used to repair or replace a defective window. They even cover the shipping of any needed parts! They will repair any broken glass for as long as you own your home. In addition, the warranty is transferable to the next owner of your home, which can be a great selling point when you put your home on the market someday. In our personal experience dealing with Anlin on warranty claims, we can say with confidence that they truly stand behind their warranty. …
Anlin Windows Warranty: Truly the Best in the Industry
One of the replacement window brands we’ve sold at BM Windows for many years now is Anlin Windows. And one of the reasons why have chosen this brand is because of the excellent product warranty they offer to our San Diego replacement window customers. The Anlin Windows warranty has always been good, but back in 2017, Anlin decided to make it even better. Prior to 2017, Anlin offered homeowners who installed their replacement windows a limited lifetime guarantee—meaning, they covered their products for as long as the original purchaser of their windows and doors owned and occupied their home. In January 2017, Anlin announced their new warranty terms, which changed their warranty to a “True Double Lifetime Limited Warranty.” Here’s a portion of the language in their new warranty: Anlin …
Window Warranty Series: Commercial Warranties
In this series on the BM Windows blog, we’re looking at various aspects of replacement window warranties. Thus far in our Window Warranty Series of blog posts, we’ve been focusing on residential replacement windows, mainly because the majority of our customers are homeowners. But here at BM Windows, we do offer replacement windows and doors to San Diego businesses that utilize residential windows, such as small hotels and apartment complexes. For these types of businesses, the typical residential warranty doesn’t apply, and window manufacturers have a different type of coverage they offer on windows installed in commercial properties. What Counts as Commercial? First of all, we should make clear what a window manufacturer typically considers a “commercial” property. …
