The warranty period for Jeld-Wen windows varies by series, with vinyl windows having limited lifetime warranty and wood windows having 20-year warranty. JELD-WEN V-2500 and Premium vinyl series have limited lifetime warranty for original owner that covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship for as long as original owner owns home, with 20-year warranty on insulating glass for seal failure where glass fogs, and 10-year warranty on hardware and moving parts, plus prorated coverage after original owner sells. JELD-WEN wood and aluminum-clad wood windows have 20-year warranty on wood components against manufacturing defects and wood rot, 10-year warranty on hardware, and 20-year warranty on insulating glass for seal failure. JELD-WEN Custom Wood has similar 20-year wood warranty. Warranty covers defects like warping, cracking, and seal failure under normal use but excludes damage from improper installation, inadequate maintenance, extreme weather, or normal wear. Warranty requires proper installation per JELD-WEN instructions and registration within specified time. Compared to premium brands like Andersen and Pella that offer stronger lifetime warranties with 20-year glass and transferability for 10 years, JELD-WEN warranty has more exclusions and shorter wood coverage.
