The College Tour Continues For Recon Independent Assessments

Recon has been supporting several General Contractors lately by providing on site field testing and diagnostics for water penetration issues in the building envelope and window field testing.

From University of North Florida in Jacksonville, University of Florida in Gainesville, and Broward State College down south we've been clocking miles to make sure their teams have the best testing support available in the United States.

We're awaiting weather windows that will allow more testing and consulting to take place in Denver, Tulsa and Baltimore too.

Despite the workload, we're still seeking more projects.

Mixed in with the fast paced past few weeks, we've also supported many others by helping them get bids prepared. Thanks for trusting us to guide you. We sincerely appreciate the trust you've given us.

Air Infiltration & Water Penetration Testing For Serious Windows

SeriousGlass and SeriousWindows are advertised to be the best windows availalbe for commercial projects seeking energy efficiency.

They offer 10 year warranties for their products. One of the exclusions on the warranty is: "improper installation".

This type of warranty language is not inconsistent within the industry.

Aside from demanding quality from personnel on a project and delivering a superior product to the owner; include field testing of your window installations. A little due diligence can go a long way.

Recon Independent Assessments provides affordable field testing of window installations nationwide. Ensure your energy efficient windows are not defeated by a poor quality install that allows air infiltration or water penetration.

Contact Recon Independent Assessments to validate the proper installation of your project's windows, store front or curtain wall systems.

info@reconwindowtesting.com please put "validation proposal" in the subject line.
