Basic Parts of a Window

Hi, I'm David Belch with AllBright Restoration Services. Today I'm with Expert Village to show you how to install windows. What we're going to talk about right now is the components of a window. Ok, what we have here, this is called a sloping sill. It?s a wood window, and this is what they call the bottom sash, top sash. You have your sash tracks. These of course are aluminum sash tracks. You have a blind stop that holds the sash tracks and the sashes in. You have an inside stop and a stool inside which is going to remain. This is a brick mold. The brick mold will remain. What I'm going to do is actually remove this blind stop and remove the sash tracks and the sashes then I will have a gutted window. The jam systems, which are your two sides, your sill and your header, which is across the top, will remain. Also, my top blind stop will remain; that will hold my top window in. I'm going to re-stop the windows when I put them in after there insulated. That?s basically it and I'll show you the rest of it when we get started.
