I'm here 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:07,000 Speaker 1: with Mark Wessell in the studio and it's time, as 3 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:10,200 Speaker 1: you know, for Gary Solovan. Welcome Gary, Good morning. 4 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:11,119 Speaker 2: How are you, Scott? 5 00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:15,440 Speaker 1: I am good. I just I read this morning that 6 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: this is National Windows Safety Week and I thought, of you, 7 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,400 Speaker 1: Windows Safety Week an odd one? 8 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I haven't really what did it say. 9 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: I didn't read any further. 10 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 3: You know, there are some safety issues, I know, with 11 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 3: blinds and things, and that became a big issue probably 12 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:38,880 Speaker 3: about fifteen twenty years ago. But well, be safe, yeah, 13 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 3: be careful with you know what. Clean them? 14 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, clean them? Do you do windows? Come on, we 15 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,520 Speaker 1: have eleven giant windows on the first floor of our house. 16 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 3: And I take that as a solid no. 17 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: Then well no, I actually do it. And it's frustrating too. 18 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: But I've got, you know, the big bucket they get 19 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: hot water and so bucket with soap in the other 20 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: bucket with a vinegar mix and go out there and 21 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: splash them with it and wipe wipe them off. Good squeegee, 22 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 1: that's the word. And uh, it's always an improvement. But 23 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: then you stand there and look at it, and you 24 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 1: all see the Yeah, you see. 25 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 2: That big windows are tough. 26 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: When I window lottery, I'll hire someone to do it. 27 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 3: There you go, that's right, there you go. So also, 28 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 3: you know, especially with folks who have, you know, replacement windows, 29 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:38,839 Speaker 3: maybe the vinyl windows, maybe the aluminum windows, double hung windows, 30 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 3: I guess, make sure those springs still work. Yes, yes, 31 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 3: because that that gets dangerous. 32 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:45,040 Speaker 2: Right. 33 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, I'm going with your theme. Can you tell 34 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: you start thinking about it here? There's all kinds of 35 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: dangers involved with windows. 36 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 2: Windows. The sound really dangerous. 37 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, and then just keep them lubricated, but not with 38 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 3: a highly refined oil. Maybe with a teflon or a 39 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 3: silicone that doesn't attract her. That would be helpful. Also, 40 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 3: and screens, Yeah, here's your trivia question of the day, Scott. 41 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,959 Speaker 3: Do you know how long a fiberglass screen usually lasts 42 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 3: in a window. 43 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: Oh, I'm going to take a guess, and it's purely 44 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: a guess. 45 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 2: Sure. 46 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: Uh ten years, close, very close. 47 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 3: Twelve years. 48 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's good. 49 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 3: I think a number of years ago you could ask 50 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 3: me that and I said, I don't know when it's 51 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 3: bad because they kind of get threadbare, they kind of 52 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 3: turned white. 53 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think of virus because there were replacement 54 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,959 Speaker 1: screens and windows in the screen and that's probably seven 55 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: or eight years old, and they're getting to where you 56 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: can kind of like. 57 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 3: A yeah, yeah, so you know a lot of times, 58 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 3: you know, there's different kinds of screens. There's aluminum screens. 59 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 3: You know, there's aluminum colored screens and black aluminum and 60 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 3: black doesn't have the glare, so maybe a little safety there. 61 00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 3: So yeah, there's plenty of things we can do with it. 62 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 2: Windows.
