SANTA CLARA - Host, Sarah Rutan: If you're planning to replace your home's window frames, it's helpful to know the full extent of your options. Today we're in Santa Clara with Diamond Certified Expert Contributor Eric Holder of Able Glass and Window Company to learn more. Diamond Certified Expert Contributor, Eric Holder: Hello, today I want to talk to you about the two different types of window frame systems you can use inside your home.
When you replace windows you have an option to a nail on frame window which is a new construction window, or a retrofit window. And, the main differences on a nail on frame widow, or new construction window, we are removing your existing trim or stucco to take the window out completely. And, that will ensure you to get a full size window.
If you want to save on some labor costs the manufacturers will come up with a means to do a retrofit application. On a retrofit application, we leave your perimeter frame in and the new window will slide in slightly smaller and cover over your old frame.
