Who are the agencies that set standards for how products are installed in a residential home?
Your local Building Inspector generally uses the Massachusetts Building Code. Its root is derived from the ICC, the International Code Council. A huge portion of the code is dedicated to public buildings. A very small portion is dedicated to residential housing, and almost none refers to window product standards (once you eliminate structural framing issues). That is why it is good to find a window installer with high standards that you can trust, like GE-HI.
