Part Number: 80YW0102

These instructions were tested and developed for replacing windows in wood-frame wall 
construction systems designed to manage moisture. 

This method of installation involves removing 

the sash, frame stops and frame hardware from the existing window. The original window frame 
will remain in place.

 

If existing window frame shows signs of water infiltration or is damaged 

beyond repair, this method should not be followed and the entire existing window should 
be removed. Installation recommendations for other types of wall construction, wall systems, 
conditions, multiple windows or bow/bay windows, may be obtained from Pella Corporation or a 
local Pella retailer. Building designs, construction methods, building materials, and site conditions 
unique to your project may require an installation method different from these instructions and 
additional care on your part. Determining the appropriate installation method is the responsibility 
of you, your architect, or other construction professional.

Always read the Pella
