How to Install a Whole-House Window Replacement

With a whole-house window replacement, you can get the look of an old-fashioned wood window without having to pay the price. A whole-house replacement window is made from a single piece of glass that fits into the frame and opens like a door. The top part of this type of window is called the header. It's generally made from fiberglass or vinyl, depending on its size and price range

The bottom part of the whole-house window is called the sash. It slides up and down on rails in the header and has two hinges that allow it to open and close

Whole-house replacement windows are available in many shapes and sizes, from small ones that fit into standard windowsills to large ones that fit over entire rooms. These types of windows also come in an array of materials, including wood, aluminum and vinyl

Whole-house replacement windows are typically more expensive than other types because they require more labor to install them correctly and because they use high-quality materials such as wood, aluminum or steel.
