Captiva Loft Problem - From Linda Stolfo



     Ken and I have a Captiva Loft. In the upstairs bathroom, there is a 36 x 10 decorative window in the bathtub. I believe the Martinique also has this window in it's hallway bathroom.
     A few weeks ago, this window broke. We found huge pieces of sharp glass in the tub. I wrote to Lois Montgomery on 12/9:
"I had a man from Lowe's here today to measure for a new window. He told me:
1. he has no idea how the house passed inspection without a tempered window in the bath tub,
and
2. if it had been a tempered glass window, it most likely would not have broken.
     The way this window broke can be very dangerous for anyone who happens to be in the tub at the time and I am wondering if all homes in this community with this type of window, realize how dangerous they can be?
     This is costing us just under $500 for something that should have been done correctly at the time the house was built."
...and have not heard back from her. So I guess KHov is not going to take any responsibility for correcting this problem.
     I just wanted everyone to be aware of this problem and are aware of how dangerous, and expensive,  it can be if broken.
