Double hung windows and alarm system

3po3 on Apr 18, 2012Carol, first, isn't that supposed to be a Braves logo? Also, it sounds like you are a candidate for replacement windows. It's not cheap, but it can save you tons of money on utility bills. My parents in Dallas (not far from the Rangers' ballpark) did this last year and saw an immediate improvement in comfort and energy bills.Helpful Reply

Carol on Apr 19, 2012Steve - GA is a temporary relo - will get back to TX as soon as we can! We loved going to Arlington Park. Braves are a good team too though. Windows are good - we also replaced all windows in the TX house - but these are OK. Could the tracks be tweaked to prevent slipping?Helpful Reply

KMS Woodworks on Apr 19, 2012If the windows are latched they should not move enough to up set the sensor...if the latches have failed replacing only the latch can be done on the cheap.Helpful Reply
