Hi All We are installing some timber casement style, toughened and double glazed windows. The reflections in the glass are incredible distorted and warping. we find it incredibly ugly: please take a look at the video below or follow these links to a youtube / google photos video: https://youtu.be/nL4GE2H9B10 And some more on google photos: https://photos.app.goo.gl/AvvSsvkgk69mhm9P6 We're pretty devastated and keen to work out if this is poor manufacturing etc? the joiner and glass company claim this is normal. but ive never seen anything like this and im sure i would have noticed. Is this normal? Is it poor quality? Any advice would be a huge help. thank you., Many thanks for your time! Charlie WARP8.mov

Hello. Our build is planned to have tilt/turn windows all round (1.5 storey house with dormer windows and large gable feature window). Now it has just occurred to me that instead of having tilt/turns all round, why don't we have standard casement windows which have one opening method opposed to two for tilt/turn. The only advantage I can see for tilt/turn windows is they open inwards to clean etc however I could see this being a pain if you have anything in front of the window on the inside! On the safety side of things does a normal casement window comply? I don't see why it wouldn't given it complies with the 450mm minimum width/height restriction as per building regulations? They are probably a lot cheaper than tilt turn also I would imagine!? I have noticed a lot of you on here discuss top hung windows quite regularly. Thanks!
