In-Depth ProVia Window Analysis: What You Need to Know 

Really impressed by these videos. Looking between OKNA and Provia windows. Based on these reviews I am confident both windows are good and just need to compare the subtle differences and the contractors for each window to make my choice. Thanks

I just got a quote for 8 Provia endure windows. I'm definitely impressed by the window. But the price was more than I imagined. Interesting though.

Thanks for the video on ProVia Endure. Also thanks for the recommendation of a local installer to me that carries and installs them. I have narrowed down my choice of vinyl double hung replacement windows to the ProVia Endure and the Okna Insul Tec 500 which appear to be similar in quality. However, it seems that the Okna 500 warranty is quite a bit better than the ProVia Endure. The Okna offers a buyer's lifetime plus transferable to 1 subsequent owner warranty on the glass, vinyl and hardware. Whereas the Endure offers only a buyer's lifetime warranty on glass and hardware (non transferable). So if the original buy get's "hit by a beer truck" the day after installation, then there is no longer any warranty on glass and hardware of the ProVia Endure windows. This doesn't seem to show much confidence in the Endure's window's quality versus the Okna 500. I'd like for there to be a window warranty for my spouse, children and/or any subsequent buyer. What are your thoughts on warranties and should warranty be a significant deciding factor? Thanks again for all your great advice. Doug

Love seeing you carrying this window, just because you have the highest quality window content on RU-vid (in my opinion). Your videos were super helpful when we were making a decision. We live in KC, and we went with Provia Windows. Best I could tell, these were super high quality/energy efficient windows that are a great value for the money. The only (small) downside I concluded is that there are windows with slimmer profiles, which wasn't worth sweating over since we have larger windows without much of a view. We're super happy with them. Thank you!

Love your videos! I’m in Maryland replacing 100 year old single-pane windows and 1960s-era storms. I’ve found an installer I trust and he’s given me two quotes - one for Andersen Woodwright and the other for Provia Endure. My biggest concern with a vinyl window is that I’ve lived in houses with vinyl windows before and when it’s very windy I can hear the vinyl rubbing or flexing. It’ll even wake me up! Have you ever heard of this before? If so, only in cheaper grade vinyl or might that also be an issue with the Provia Endures? Thanks for teaching us all so much about windows!

New Construction, Ohio - Provia Endure v. Onka 800 v. Anderson 100 v United 5600. Builder and builder supply warehouse pushing the United Windows. I'm learning toward the Provia given weight and construction. Seems like a solid build. I know price comes into play but suggestions would be appreciated.

Does provia aspect series and vinyl max Edison series qualify for tax incentives in Ohio.

Hi Jeff, thanks for these wonderful videos. You mentioned about "fine line weld system to Endure. Does this weld system also applies to Aspect? To be honest the sample I saw today from my local store, both Endure and Aspect have that "typical vinyl frame visible weld line" instead nice finished joint the one you have on your video....

Triple bulb seal protection. Ain't no air getting in that thing. I'd buy it if I lived in a stinky area.

The screens don’t last and not under warranty. They will not replace or offer a replacement to purchase. I have to find a company to make a full screen now.

ProVia makes excellent doors. I have no doubt they would do the same with any windows they're going to put their name on.

I really like the Provia Endure series - we have had great success installing this in our area. Its definitely not narrow but thats not a bad thing in our DC area

Ordered a 60” ProVia slider. Great product but was very disappointed that door had a block to stop it from opening fully. So the pass thru opening was small. I called ProVia and to my surprise they sent me a 72” slider but I had to change my header. Which was a pain. I personally would never order 60” slider from them but the 72” works great.

how do you think a black vinyl provia window compares to a an aluminum clad wooden window from pella? I'm particularly wondering about fading in the sun.

I'm in Ohio and while I'm not overly familiar with the ProVia windows, I did overhear a contractor say they are his favorite brand and very high quality.

Thanks for the video. What brand of glass is Provia using in the Endure windows?

Thank you Jeff ! With your recommendation among different choices of windows company in Maryland, I went with Provia Windows and I am very happy. I used Zen Windows, Maryland. I was waiting for your review video :-)

Hi Jeff!! I really appreciate all your videos. Do you have any thoughts on Ideal Window Company. Manufacturer is in Bayonne, NJ? I am considering the Majestic Signature series vinyl window with ESM glass package for 6 double hung, plus a picture window with a casements window on both sides. I’m also looking at the Provia, Okna for the above windows. Ideal windows seems to have a more narrow profile which I like. . Any thoughts? Thank you for your input.

It would have been helpful to know how you feel Provia compares to other brands. You seem to like it…but how does it stack up to others? Like, if I’m considering Pella and Marvin, what should I be aware of? Pros/cons? Thanks!

Jeff...you recently did a review on the Provia Windows and the Okna Windows. Any preference for either? Opinion is appreciated!

I live in coppell texas, just wanted to see if you had any experiences with Elevate windows? Reviews are not that great but they do offer limited life time warranty. Just wanted your opinion before I make a decision. Thanks

How long would you expect these windows to last?

How would you compare this to Marvin essential
