Great video. I can’t believe how easy it was to install a new window! Home Depot wanted $2000 per window installed! I paid $550 for my conversion kit and did it myself! Winning!!!
Your video gave me the confidence to try this out myself, and it went exactly like your video said it would. Saved me thousands in install costs, thank you! A couple things I’ll add: 1. The plastic squishy bag between the inner and outer jam wanted to poke out the bottom for me, I had to be careful to keep it inside. 2. I had some weird dried glue to scrape off before I could put down the caulk bead. Beauty of a video, can’t wait to do the rest of my windows. Thank you!
I'm glad the video was helpful. Yes, the plastic does slide out so you need to keep it in place during the install. Good luck with the remaining installation.
Much better video than Andersen provides! One unexpected difference I ran into - after removal of the lower left sash screws, I moved both windows all the way up but the top part lower sash was still positioned partially behind the windows. So in addition to pulling the lower sash away from the wood frame, I had to also pull down to extricate the top part from behind the windows. Other than that, everything went smoothly!😊
Thank you for putting this up! I've got a leaky rotting Andersen sinfle pane, almost 50 year old Narroline. never did any window work so I was hesitant about taking this job on. I didn't realize how easy it was. Thanks
Well organized, well videoed, well presented! Helped to remove the intimidation factor, and show the Anderson Replacement Windows product to be a doable DIY project for the average home owner. I looked at several DIY videos (including Anderson's), and found yours to be the best. Thanks, Jay!
Jay , got my windows installed thanks to your video , I brought it up on the living room TV AND PAUSED IT AT EACH STEP ! After that I did the rest on my own , piece of cake !!! Thanks Again , Carroll
Thanks Jay, your video was much more informative than the Anderson instructions manual and their videos. You made the job very easy to do. Thanks so much!
Thanks very much. The instructions at 8:20 for tucking in the outdoor-facing edge were missing from the printed instructions I received. They weren't clear about that at all. I'm glad I saw this.
Hey great video. Just got quoted $110 per window for installation. I have 16 that need to be replaced and definitely and easy install after watching your video 👍
Absolutely perfect video! Thank you. Better than the official Andersen video and their printed instructions. Install was really smooth, just followed along with your video.
Thank you very much this was really helpful. I originally had some windows replaced but they took away so visible glass that it looked so tiny.. I found out about this conversion windows and even when I tried to order from HD they tried convince me not to buy it.. Ended up looking up the size and part number on andersens webpage go to home depot and had to fight with the windows guy to key in the part number.. finally got it after 3 weeks and it fit perfectly installed per this video and it looks great.
Hey jay! I really enjoyed your video, but I do have a quick question. Where do you get your wire cutters and drills from, I just love the color and can’t find anything like it! Also congrats on almost 80 subscribers, I can’t wait till you get 100. Great job! And keep up the good work!
You did a terrific job on the video I would only add a couple of things that would be helpful to others. One the foam padding between the inner and outer Jim is there on purpose so leave it. To use a very wide blade screwdriver so you can get a good grip on the window clutch mechanism when you move it up and down. Three when you spray silicone on the jamb be careful not to spray it near the clutch mechanism because it can affect how it grips internally. Anyway thank you you did a better job than Anderson did by a long shot!
@@JaysHelpfulVideos My only question from watching your video is does the jamb liner that goes in the wood kerfs sit on top of the exterior existing white frame or is it tucked inside
Thanks for the informative video. Much better than Andersen's! Question regarding balancers: Must I leave the balancers in place for better results? I know they are not needed for the functioning of the narrowline conversion kit, but they are new and I'd like to salvage them for another window. I'm thinking something needs to be in that balancer space above to liner to provide firm support underneath liner (??) Thanks for any direction/expertise on this! Paul Gisondo
You're right the balancers are not needed for the Narrowline windows because they are built into the new jams. You can remove the old balancers and use them on another window.
Great video. Excellent detail and tips/tricks. Nice job. Are you still satisfied with the conversion kit vice going with a complete insert? No issues with water intrusion?
This was quick and easy and only took about and hour to install. I put 3 in my house and I like them. The tilt in is a little difficult, (tight) but i only do that 1 or 2 times a year. A complete insert may have been difficult for me since I have stucco on the outside of my house. I ordered them from Home Depot and had them in about 3 weeks.
Loved your video on doing the conversion of the Anderson double hung windows I have a question what tips would you give for using this conversion kit on a 3 window Bay, It is impossible to put a 2 and a 1/2 inch screw into either side of the middle window
I did my single conversions five years ago and they went smoothly. Your video is spot on. I have two double mulled units still to do. I held back because I was not sure if the new sashes on mulled side of the joined units could be secured correctly . There is no stud to screw into on the joined (middle) side ( where you install the 2 1/2 inch screw) Andersen was not definitive if a short screw would work . Wonder if you ran into this when you did all yours?
Per their instructions "Install (1) 2-1/2" screw at the center of each side jamb to draw frame slightly outwards. Side Jamb will have outward movement" See steps 6 Prepare the frame area: edge.sitecorecloud.io/andersencorporation-c47i754m/media/Project/AndersenCorporation/AndersenWindows/AndersenWindows/files/technical-docs/accessory-guide/accessoryguide-0005060.pdf?rev=f43538312c304445bd2d0131e59e8bdf
@@JaysHelpfulVideos Yes, that works for a standard single window configuration ( both jambs adjacent to jack studs). If you have two or more singles mulled into a multi unit , the long screw would draw into and through the adjoining jamb on one side. In other word on one side you have to jambs, side by side, with 1/2 inch to 3/4/ space between.
If the windows went in place and you are able to slide them up and down and tilt them in, they are working fine. If they are hard to move then I would suggest you call the company.
Hi Jay, great video and very helpful. I am considering replacing my old narroline windows as well. Got a question when I measure my windows. I measure the glass size to determine the window size, however, I found the rough opening on the chart is larger than my current windows. Have you met this issue? How did you choose your window size?
I measured the visible window area (length and width) and gave those measurements to the team at my big box home improvement store and they worked with Andersen to order the correct replacement kit.
I'm confused about the side jamb liner screws. On my original Narroline window, I removed all six visible screws on the lower left side jamb liner and all were 1/2" long. There were no screws in the upper left jamb liner. Also, there no screws in the right side jamb liner either. The accompanying instructions that came with my window conversion kit states: "When removing jamb liner screws, if any screw is longer than 1/2", replace screw in former position after jamb liners are removed. Failure to do so may compromise structural integrity of the unit(s)." With that in mind, none of the original jamb liner screws I removed are over 1/2" in length. I believe at the 2:45 min. mark you mentioned; "they said to use screws 1/2" longer." Who is 'they' and why did you use screws longer by 1/2" (1" length)? Did you also use a larger diameter screw or did you stay with the same diameter as the screws you removed? Any idea what the diameter of the original screws you removed - #6, #8 or other? All-in-all your window installation video is much better than the Andersen Window installation video. Looking forward to your reply. Thanks.
Alan, great catch, I misspoke. You are correct, you should replace any screw that was removed that are a 1/2 inch or longer. I used 1 inch #6 screw. I only had 6 screws to replace on the lower left jamb.
How did you know your original narrowline widows were ng? Mine look good and work fine but last year I put plastic over them and I thought it was warmer but how can you tell for sure?? Thanks for your video
Hey Jay. Are the new windows wood or vinyl or wood with a vinyl clad exterior. Want to get these but don’t want wood on the exterior. Thanks in advance.
Below is a link to Andersen's website with information on the Narroline Conversion kit. My windows are white factory painted wood on the inside and out. I'm not sure if there is a vinyl option. www.andersenwindows.com/support/window-door-installation/diy/narroline-sash-conversion-kit/
I am very interested in these foe 14 windows so I don't have to rip down my moulding etc. Did you have to be sure your windows were perfectly level, plumb, and square? I am nervous about that for me. I am not the best at precise measurements. I don't want to be stuck with 14 kits I cannot use.
The new window jambs are flexible to allow for some out of square conditions. I'm sure there is a +/- tolerance of out of level and I suggest you call Andersen before make the purchase. Good luck and let me know if you take on the project and use my video as a guide!!
@@JaysHelpfulVideos thanks for the response! One last question, why do the conversion kit instead of a brand new window? I feel like if you’re going to replace the sash and jamb liners you might as well replace the sill and header too?

Little late to the party, however, you unfortunately misread the directions. You are to replace ONLY the screws that were OVER 1/2" in length into their original positions as they are structural. Whereas you stated you needed to replace ALL the screws with 1/2" longer ones.
