Thank you so much! Only difference is my pieces around the window to remove were on the outside and the putty knife seal to break was on the inside. I would have never figured this out without your video

Thank you. It can be tricky, but it’s not to bad.

great video, very well taught. I was looking for something different. I recently had new windows installed and now want to add a window air conditioner. The single hung window have lower sash stops and I am not sure if they can be removed since the current opening is to short in height to have a standard A/C fit? Being that they are new windows, I don't want to just force the stops out and maybe break or damage it. I am sorry I don't have the name of the manufacturer. but they must be Canadian. Any thoughts you might have would be very helpful. Thank you and thanks for sharing.

When you removed the glass was it both pieces at the same time. Is the replacement a sealed double pane with the argon gas inside? Have some foggy windows bad seals . Is this the best route? Thanks , Jerry

@srakfleming5888

2 жыл бұрын

Yes. Both panes came out at the same time. And yes the replacement was also a sealed double pane with the gas between. You have the same problem we had, fog in between the panes. Which means a seal is broken somewhere. I think this is the only way to fix that. Unfortunately.

Excellent video, thanks

I think it could be the same. But easier because that whole window should come out. I’d probably just get the whole new bottom window and remove it as if cleaning it.

Do you have a video to tell how to measure replacement window glass,and where do you order the glass

@srakfleming5888

2 жыл бұрын

The measurements should be on a sticker up in the window frame. My windows were Simonton, so I just called them and gave the measurements from the stickers.

I broke the bottom sash by accident, the one that tilts and can be removed easily. Can I replace just that sash or do I have to replace the top half (shown in this video) as well? Do manufacturers sell the bottom sash by itself?

My brand new Windows have one corner on all of the bottom sashes where the tilt latches don't snap back into the frame without an excessive amount of force. What can this mean and what is the fix?

It’s a single hung window. So the bottom sash moves up and down. The top is stationary. All it has is the pane of glass. This video shows how to replace that pane of glass.

The bottom sash moves up and down. You just tilt it in and then lift one side up and it comes right out.

But this video shows replacing the upper glass, not the entire sash (glass with frame).

Removing the bottom sash of a window is the easiest thing about windows. Open the window a bit, push in the two slats at the top of the sash, and fold the window in towards you. Than just lift out. Pretty simple. Thanks for watching.
