windows, carefully pull the grille member away from the
sash, one vertical member at a time. The end of each grille
member contains a grille fastener, which pivots down to fit
between the glass surface and sash lip, securing the grille in
place (Fig. 19). To install these grilles, position them against
the glass pane and apply light pressure on both ends of a single vertical member
to begin engagement of the fasteners. Continue until all grille fasteners are engaged.
Replacing Glass Panes
In most cases, it is easier and more economical to replace the entire window sash,
rather than the glass. If a window pane is broken, always cover the damaged area
with tape for safety — and cover the floors to avoid damage from falling glass.
Consult a qualified glazier or Andersen dealer.
Avoiding Trouble
Movable insulating materials such as window coverings, shutters and other
shading devices may cause thermal stress or excessive condensation, damaging
the windows. Andersen Corporation is not responsible for product performance
when these kinds of materials or devices are used with our products.
Preventing Condensation
Most condensation problems are the result of interior atmospheric conditions,
such as humidity. For more information, consult an Andersen dealer and ask for
a copy of the “Controlling Indoor Condensation” brochure or DVD.
