Off spec. fire windows

    I am thinking of buying a second hand house in Ireland, built in 2007 (date on windows 2007) and my engineer says 2 windows do not comply with 2006 Part B Fire Regs.

    I would like to hear what are other Boards.ie members thoughts in relation to this.... Should I pull out of the sale?? What are the chances of repercussions when I try to resell the property?? Any Advice would be welcome as I am at the top of my budget for the purchase price and had not factored in new window costs when negotiating the sale price of the house.
    I don't want to lose the house by irritating the vendor to the point he tells me to take a hike!
    I can live with the small difference in window opening sizes but how big a problem is this when it is time to resell??

    Any useful opinions welcome.
