We have 9, Didn't do the window in the living room because it was the only thermopane window in the house. Wish that I changed it then because it looks like hell now.

I'll have to live with the ones we have now because I'm not replacing them again. We did new windows and put in a new furnace and added central A/C a couple years before I decided to retire..

About 3 years ago our furnace took a crap and took the A/C with it. I dug deep and when that wasn't enough went around to the neighbors collecting.

I hated spending the money when we did it but knew it would be easier to do while I was still working. Next year we are thinking of redoing our bathroom..
