That's plus installation. Let's estimate $150/opening X the number of windows in your house, e.g. 15 windows (probably more). Thus, $1200 + $150 x 15 = $20,250.00. That's a chunk. Milt can provide more accurate numbers. At that price range, you might want to explore other retrofit window products or even restoring or rebuilding the existing windows with energy-efficient glass and improved weatherstripping. Vinyl windows are pretty cost efficient but may or may not fit into the architectural style of your house. Apply the difference to improve the house insulation.
