2:30 "This one seems to be broken." Tom Silva, master of the understatement.

Man, this video was super satisfying to watch. Clean install from beginning to end.

Great old windows! Glad to see they weren't replaced, even though they are very low efficiency. Just need wood heat in the winter, and light weight clothes and a tolerance for some warmth in the height of summer.

Looks like they've got storm windows on the outside as well, which helps with efficiency.

I've been watching Tommy for decades...Great mechanic! Probably some of the most awesome true divided lite operating windows I've seen ! I've been replacing and repairing windows for 3 decades, never saw one of these set ups in the Philly area..

Does he ever mention what these windows are called? or does anyone know. I have seen them but never knew what "style/type" they are called

I have Malta windows and I cannot figure out how to take the wooden sashes out to repair and paint. There are no latches or screws on the inside of the jamb/plastic rail guides, like the Andersen windows have. Cannot find anything on RU-vid or Google. Nothing. House built in 1994.

So after the homeowner call the show, the show sent out their own carpenter, maybe even Tommy, and they took out the old sash, so they could find out where to get the replacement balancers. Then they put the window back in to make it easier to do this episode.
