You can buy those clips after Market put them on windows yourself if the retrofit and don’t have a nail on flange. You can also buy those clips to install prehung doors. They work great. Been around for a long time maybe 10-15 years.

Will this work for window replacement on existing house? Will there be a “replacement” version?

So, Pella is installing windows in that same way it's done in Germany and much of Europe for decades. Someday, maybe they will engineer them as well too.

does this make a future window removal and install a PITA because it is nailed on the inside instead of out?

Easy install. Wonder what reinstalling a damaged window/frame with the same type would involve. Would you have to dig out the clips from drywall, or is there a way to disengage the clips from the outside and clip the new one into the same clips? If the second, would that also mean you wouldn't need to touch the trimming on the inside to reinstall the window?

So many people are going with casement windows now. Not double hungs. Those appear to be crank outs. Eliminating the frame of each sash around eye level. Those are taller than your average house, so a dbl hung might be hard to latch, or get the top sash pushed up. ... I was curious about using them on dbl hungs. How would you adjust the frame/jamb for correct window operation?

I dont know about it. Just install the frame and put in the glass. It works just as good imo.

Should have showed the outside part of the install in more detail.

Pella has stepped up their game. Nice to see, When I was installing full time, we hated Pella quality. They were as flimsy as Jeld Wen depot specials. We did noise remedy in Seattle and have a couple thousand homes and 10's of thousands under our belt. These would have completely changed time per install by hundreds of hours.

With some clamps, I keep it temporarily in place and then screw the brackets into the brick wall. P.S. I'm from Belgium.

These windows look great. However, they are designed the ultra high end home. Most window manufacturers don't give a damn about the normal home buyer. Who cannot, under any circumstance, afford Pella windows.

Unrelated but I'm still waiting to see what zip wall looks like in 30 years. The tape is not layered and the adhesives won't last forever.

However, these windows do not have the tilt and open function like the European windows

Don't🚫forget🧠 to clip it❗yikes

This only works with small windows. 2nd story sliders, no way. Stairs also limit the size you can carry from the inside. Cool invention, but not worth the added expense especially if you already have large windows that will require exterior install

Lol the Indian music

New? European tilt/turn windows have always been installed from the inside... USA as always lagging behind Europe by decades when it comes to building technology :(

Nothing special or proprietary about this whatsoever,except the exorbitant cost. Brick clips have been around for decades and decades ✅. 1/4" spacer on bottom,free with a piece scrap ✅ still need to go up on ladder and flash and caulk,trim.✅. If you can't figure out how to tack a scrap or a piece of strap to hold a window from falling inside or out, you need to get another job because I don't think you could build a snowball. When pella makes one that drops in and flashes and trims itself with no climbing that would be revolutionary. This is nothing but a gimmick using technology that we already use for waaayyyy more money and not fixing the issue which is the risk and time of the outside work at height.

This is a slick system, but from a value vs performance standpoint, i would start away from Pella. Matt, have you seen DenCo windows? European windows at domestic prices.

Pella is a swear word in my region. haven't been on a single job where they didn't have callbacks trying to get them to stop leaking. these, with their tiny flange don't look any better. they remind me of flangeless remodel windows, where the water starts blowing through the gaps as soon as the caulking starts to get old.

Half the work? Maybe. A twice the price? Definitely.

If it was a good, high performance window that guy couldn't put it in by himself because of weight.

nothing new. Same windows have been in Europe for more than 20 years. and most importantly, it’s at least two times cheaper than in the USA.😂😂😂
