This window has double-pane, polycarbonate glazing, and tilt-in sashes. (Photos 1-6 by Linda Andersen.) (7) After removing the screen, pry up the bottom sash; the screws will strip from the sash. (Photos 7-11 by author.)

  16. (9) A sharp, downward impact will cause the ventilation latches to fail. (10) Pulling down both sashes will give you access to the slides that will release the top of the sash from the frame and enable you to tilt them into the structure. 11) The window is almost fully opened.
