Let's Get Started

Tilt Both Windowpanes

Important: When tilting the window sash into the home, you must support the sash by holding it or resting it on a table or chair. Before locking the windows back into the frame, make sure the windowpane is level. If the window sash is not level, it may not tilt back into the unit frame easily.

Opens in a New Browser Tab The guide provides steps to replace the windowpanes, which you can skip if you only want to tilt the sashes.
