Steel case windows are not commonly used in new home construction today due to their reliability and low thermal insulation properties. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Many homeowners of older homes with steel case windows want to replace them, and fortunately it\u2019s not that hard to do.

As you crank the window open notice that there is a metal lip that is about \u00bd inch wide extending around the perimeter of the steel case window frame. This part of the window frame will be left intact, so that the <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/windows\/installing-replacement-windows\/\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\">new vinyl window replacement<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span> can attach to it. Use a tape measure to measure from top to bottom, and side to side, of the lip opening. Then subtract \u00bc of an inch from each measurement. Record these measurements and proceed to your local window store.<\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"50%\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Order new vinyl window replacements to your recorded measurements. Depending upon where you live you might be able to buy retrofit replacement window frame kits when you are ordering the vinyl replacement windows. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">If you are unable to buy the retrofit replacement kits then you\u2019ll have no choice but to have to incorporate window trim to the exterior of the new window replacement after it has been installed.<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"1%\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"49%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00KVQ3KJQ\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B00KVQ3KJQ&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=wwwhomeadditi-20&amp;linkId=26474c347566b4509d679d3c80071cf8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ASIN=B00KVQ3KJQ&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;WS=1&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;tag=wwwhomeadditi-20\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=wwwhomeadditi-20&amp;l=am2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B00KVQ3KJQ\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Once the new vinyl replacement windows have shown up on the jobsite you can then remove and replace the old steel casement windows.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000; font-size: 14pt;\"><em>Warning: Always wear eye and hand protection when working around glass.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">To remove casement windows with no fixed panels simply crank the window wide open. As you crank the window open you\u2019ll notice two pivot arm assemblies. There is one located at the top of the window and another at the bottom. Using a hack saw, cut off the pivot arms at the point where they attach to the window panel. Once cut the window panel can be easily removed from the window frame.<\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"50%\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Next use a screw driver to remove the crank assembly from the window frame. There should be a couple of screws that can be removed from the crank assembly to disconnect it from the window frame.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Finally, to complete the removal of the steel case window twist or cut away the pivot arms that are still attached to the window frame. Vice grips work well for flexing, twisting, and breaking off the pivot arms.<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"1%\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"49%\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/ebooks\/installing-a-new-window-ebook\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9088\" src=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/New_Window_Ebook.jpg\" alt=\"How to Install a Window Ebook\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/New_Window_Ebook.jpg 250w, https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/New_Window_Ebook-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Learn <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/ebooks\/installing-a-new-window-ebook\/\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\">how to install a new window<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span> with this eBook<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Installing Replacement Vinyl Windows<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">To install the replacement vinyl windows, first run a bead of caulk along the exterior lip edge of the old window frame. Next, place the vinyl replacement window up against the metal lip of the old casement window. While someone holds the replacement window in place, square and plumb up the window and then attach it to the metal window frame lips with screws.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Once the vinyl replacement window is securely mounted, apply another bead of caulk to the exterior of the vinyl window replacement. I highly recommend using a 100% silicone caulk. It is flexible and will last longer than a latex caulk, albeit the silicone caulk is much more expensive than the latex caulk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">If you need more help on choosing the right window replacement for your home, contact one of our <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/needcontractor\/window-contractor-quotes\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">pre-screened window installation contractors<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span>.
