The Following Describes The
Sequence Of Installing Your New Traco Replacement Windows.
- You will receive a call from the front office to set
an appointment to do an exact measurement on your window order.
- We will order your windows. When we receive
them in our warehouse, we will call to set an appointment for the
installation.
- For the most part, we normally install between 10
& 15 windows per 2 person crew, per day. For Pella wood windows
that lessens to 5-7 per day.
- We ask that you remove your curtains or drapes and
back the furniture from the windows.
- We will remove the windows starting with the storm
windows and work our way toward the inside.
- Your interior trim will not be
disturbed.
- The frames of the windows are insulated with a collapsible
foam insulation and installed with 4-3" screws hidden by the
blind stops.
- We adjust the center of the frame with by turning
the butterfly.
- The sashes and screen are installed in the frame.
- The exterior wood brick molds are caped to the
dimension of the brick mold or window trim with a vinyl coated aluminum coil
stock, custom bent and molded to your window on the job site.
- Next, we caulk and seal the exterior and interior of
the window to keep out air and water.
- Finally, we will vacuum the floor around the base of
the window.
- If you have any valuables hanging on your walls,
please take care to remove them as they may become unstable in the
construction process.
- If you have a security system, we will remove the
units, however we are not electricians and ask you to please call them to
reinstall the system. (We don't want to cause a false alarm).
