Help Identifying A Window
I have a punchlist repair task on a job that has a broken window. Its a basement hopper window all wood frame looks like and Anderson but its single pane with what looks like a removable storm window right on the exterior frame itself. I dont think the glass is replacable so I need to order a new sash. These units are 3 years old, I cant find any identifying etchings on the glass itself and I dont recall ever encountering this type before.
Does this description above sound famliar to anyone? |

Re: Help Identifying A Window
Sounds more like a Pella, as they had the removable interior pane........ I dont think Andersen did. Any glass is replaceable........... they had to put it in there so it can be taken out and replaced.

Re: Help Identifying A Window
The frame does not have any glazing compound or mechanical fasteners at the corners of the frame that would enable it to come apart. This is the first thing I looked at.

Re: Help Identifying A Window
Tahe it out break out glass and tape off on interior edge mark on tape a 1/4" larger all around and use a Fein multi cutter or a dremel with a blade and cut it out, bring to a glazier and he will glass it and trim it in should cost 18 for single pane plate glass and 50 for labor to glaze

Re: Help Identifying A Window
It was an older Anderson unit. I went to a repair place they said no way not worth the effort. I ordered a new sah only $67.00 bucks.
