These instructions were tested and developed for replacing windows in wood-frame wall
construction systems designed to manage moisture. This method of installation involves removing
the sash, frame stops and frame hardware from the existing window. The original window frame
will remain in place. If the existing window frame shows signs of water infiltration or is damaged
beyond repair, this method should not be followed and the entire existing window should
be removed. Installation recommendations for other types of wall construction, wall systems,
conditions, multiple windows or bow/bay windows, may be obtained from Pella Corporation or a
local Pella retailer. Building designs, construction methods, building materials, and site conditions
unique to your project may require an installation method different from these instructions and
additional care on your part. Determining the appropriate installation method is the responsibility
of you, your architect, or other construction professional.
CAUTION: Many windows in older homes are painted with lead-based paint. Removal of old
windows may disturb this paint. Proper precautions must be taken to minimize exposure to dust
and debris. Consult state or local authorities for more information.

1 REMOVE THE EXISTING SASH
Note: Remove the new window from its packaging.
Inspect and measure the new window to confirm it will fit
into the opening prior to removing the existing window.
The window needs to be 3/8" smaller in both width and
height than the pocket frame, i.e. existing sash opening.
A. Remove the existing sash. This will vary per manufacturer
oftheexistingwindow.Removingthehingeandoperator
fasteners will generally allow the sash to be removed from
the existing frame.
Note: Two or more people may be required when
handling existing sash.
B. Remove operator hardware and all head, jamb, and sill
stops. This can usually be accomplished with a prybar.

Note: Take note of the cover
support bracket around the
roto operator hardware, (on
the sill of casement and
large awning units and on
the jamb of standard awning
units) as the cover support
bracket will be referenced
when re-installing Interior
Frame Cover #2.
Note: Position shims to ensure they allow at least
1/2" from the exterior surface of the window to
allow for placement of backer rod and sealant.
4 SETTING AND FASTENING THE WINDOW
AWNING/CASEMENT
A. Insert the window and center it in the opening to allow
clearance for shimming.
Note: Use of a suction cup on the glass will assist in
handling the window.
Note: Each existing window frame and wall depth will vary
in different applications; therefore there is not a standard
measurement for the overhang of the window frame to
the exterior or for the distance from the interior face of
the window to interior trim. When performing Steps 4B
thru 4D, installing the frame screws, be sure to keep the
distance consistent all around the window.
Note: On the exterior, there must be
enough room for backer rod and 3/8"
sealant bead.
B. Insert shims between the window and
the opening at the top two anchor
hole locations in the window jambs.
Keepshimsback1/2"frominteriorfaceofwindow.

frame and the rough opening at the
anchor hole locations in the window
frame.Keepshimsback1/2"from

Note: Install shims per Shim and
Fastener Guide. DO NOT over shim.
E. Check the interior reveal. Make sure
the measurement from the interior
face of the window to the interior face of
the window to the interior face of the wall is
equal at several points around the window.

Note: It may be necessary to squeeze the end of the tube with pliers to be able to
insert into the space between the window frame and the rough opening.
B. Check the window operation (vent units only) by
opening and closing the window.
Note: If the window does not operate correctly,
check to make sure it is still plumb, level, square,
and the jambs are not bowed. If adjustments are
required, remove the foam with a serrated knife.
Adjust the shims and reapply the insulating foam
sealant.
5 INTERIOR SEAL
Caution: Ensure use of low pressure polyurethane window and door insulating foams
and strictly follow the foam manufacturer’s recommendations for application. Use of
high pressure foams or improper application of the foam may cause the window frame
to bow and hinder operation.
A. Apply insulating foam sealant. From the interior, insert
thenozzleoftheapplicatorapproximately1"deepinto
the space between the window and the rough opening
andapplya1"deepbeadoffoam.Thiswillallowroom
for expansion of the foam and will minimize squeeze

to create a continuous seal. For windows with jamb
extensions installed, ensure the foam is placed between
the window frame and the rough opening, not between
the jamb extension and the rough opening. Follow
foam manufacturer's instructions.
C. Insert jamb hole plugs (provided) into each screw hole for single-hung and double-hung
units.

this step.
Any exposed wood and flashing tape on the exterior needs to be
