Gerry and Jim live in St Paul, Minnesota and have a cabin in Nisswa, Minnestoa. Nisswa located in the Brainerd Lakes area of Northern Minnesota. Gerry and Jim’s cabin has been in their family since the 1960′s. It is a beautiful place located on Gull Lake but because the cabin is used year round, they noticed that the windows were leaking air and were extremely poor energy efficiency. So they knew it was time to start looking around for new windows.
After seeing a few a few window companies, they called on Sam Drews of Ultimate Exteriors of MN of Milaca, Minnesota. Sam listened to their needs and goals for new windows and showed them the Verde Window by Sunrise Windows.
We installed 8 new Sunrise Verde Vinyl windows with solar 12 glass. Gerry and Jim chose to go with Cherry wood grain for the interior and white for the exterior. 7 of the new windows are Verde Double hung windows and the large living room window is a 3 lite tilt in slider. All eight of the new Verde windows have self cleaning glass on the exterior and each window is easy to open and close for cleaning. Also each of the 8 new Verde windows comes standard with the opti view screen which enables more air flow and is much clearer then a standard screen.

Additional sales rep comments…
Gerry & Jim were on a tight time line to get this project done. I am happy to say that we accomplished our goal of installing the windows on the time line that we promised the customer. I know Gerry and Jim will enjoy the cabin they have in the Brainerd Lakes area even more now that they don’t have to worry about the energy efficancy of their cabin this winter and summer.
