FRAME

A – Exterior outer frame members are covered with a pre-formed rigid vinyl PVC cladding, minimizing maintenance and providing an attractive appearance. Anderson® tilt-wash windows are available in four neutral colors. Specify White, Sandstone, Terratone® or Forest Green color.

B – For exceptionally long-lasting performance, sill members are constructed with a wood core and a Fibrex® composite material exterior. Sill ends are protected and sealed with weather-resistant covers.

C – Natural wood stops are made of treated, clear pine that can be finished to match the interior decor. On white prefinished interior units the stops are white PVC.

D – A factory-applied rigid vinyl anchoring flange on the head, sill and side of the outer frame helps secure the unit to the structure.

E – An extruded rigid patented vinyl jamb liner and fin provide a protective seal against the outer frame members. Exclusive patented slide wash assists make it easy to tilt the sash into wash mode position.

F – Weatherstripping throughout the unit provides a long-lasting, energy-efficient, weather repellent seal. For the top and bottom rails, an encased foam material is used. The head jamb liner and sill have a rigid vinyl rib that the weatherstripping material compresses against. At the check rail, compressible vinyl bulb material is used. Side jamb liners use leaf type weatherstripping with foam inserts.

Unique block and tackle counter balances feature sized-to-the-unit, rust resistant springs that require no adjustment. Glass-reinforced nylon balancer shoes provide smooth, reliable sash operation. To help prevent accidental release when in wash mode, they automatically lock into position with a patented stainless steel retainer clip.

SASH

G – A polyester stabilized coat with a Flexacron® finish is electrostatically applied to penetrate all exterior surfaces for maximum protection and a lustrous finish.

H – Wood sash members are treated with water-repellent wood preservative for a long-lasting protection and performance. Interior surfaces are unfinished clear pine. Low-maintenance prefinished white interiors are also available.

GLASS

I – A glazing bead and silicone provide superior weathertightness and durability.

J – High-performance™ Low-E and High-Performance Sun™ Low-E glass deliver optimum insulating performance. High-Performance Low-E tempered and High-Performance Sun Low-E tempered glass also available. (Glass option must be specified.)
