Default windows

I agree with the windows. I have an iris and it is on the large window off the nook that gives me trouble. Yes, a lip would have been a great help. It is a large window and heavy.

The builder and the window people came out several times. Of course, at first they said it was because I was weak. I took them over to my neighbors ....same house...same window...and opened hers for them. They put new tension things in and sprayed silicon...maybe. They told us not to use one spray...and I can't remember what it is...maybe it was the silicon.

I finally got a window suction cup....the one they use to lift glass or help you get out of the shower. It has two suction cups on it and a handle. I don't open the window much...but if I put that on the bottom...I now have enough leverage to life the window up.
