The newer homes south of 44 have upgraded windows that I can attest to having no problems. Our homes is 4 years old and none of the windows have failed nor do they rattle. I don't see a problem not having copper piping and conduit is only used where required by code. There are the occasional problems but percentage wise I would have to say they are very minimal.
