Both of the large picture windows on the front of this small house had sash with single-pane glass in them.
|
To minimize the costs, the mess and the aesthetic liabilities some ascribe to the look of Vinyl windows…
|
…we simply removed the original picture sash in each opening…
|
…prepped the jambs…
|
…to align the insulated glass spacer-bars relative to the jamb stop sight-lines…
|
…and glazed new insulated glass units directly to the original jamb assemblies.
|
This is of course, what they call a “Direct-Glaze” installation.
|
Upgraded to Low-E Insulated Glass…
|
…without significantly downgrading the character of the house, or losing any daylight opening space.
