Pella 80YV0102 Manuale Utente

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 the 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.

CAUTION: Many windows in older homes are painted with lead-based paint. Removal of old 

windows may disturb this paint. Proper precautions must be taken to minimize exposure to dust 

and debris. Consult state or local authorities for more information.
