Want to learn how to replace a thermal panel on a casement or slider window? A Kohltech Windows & Doors expert will show you how it’s done.
Note: Make sure you know your thermal glass width before replacing it. To do this, a trick is to remove the glazing stops, insert a business card between the glass and sash, mark the card once you hit the other side. Measure this distance and that will give you your width.

These home improvement and DIY videos are such a useful tool. I've not done glazing but I wanted to see how it is done. Not only does it cut costs but it also helps people acheive things they didn't know they could. I've learned a lot from watching these videos. I managed to do the laminate flooring in my home and box in some pipes in my bathroom.

Well done video! I'm an "experienced" DIYer and needed some info on the bottom and side block install. Other videos on RU-vid simply didn't show that, but this one fit the bill perfectly! Many thanks!

@topmario14 Год назад

This product works well. I got it next day delivery!Fits to our smaller window, 16 inch. Perfect for the space needed.

Excellent video! Thanks very much.

@mbaws98 6 лет назад

Love the instruction, it looked to me like mission impossible to replace a thermo panel, with this video, at least I know it is possible, and I may hire one to do it anyway, but I am more confident in what I am doing.

@rondail5675 6 лет назад

Nicely done and shown. Thanks for taking the time to show us!

@Charlie-kw9jk Год назад

This is a very well done video! Liked and subbed!

Thanks Charlie!

@RSole9999 3 года назад

One critical measurement was neglected: the thickness of the pane assembly. Double pane, triple pane can be made with differing thicknesses of glass, so, if the replacement is not the exact same thickness, there will be a major problem. Too thick and those glazing stops won't go back in. That means, unless you know the thickhness in advance, you will need to remove the old glazing before ordering a new one.

@Kohltech 3 года назад

Good note, at Kohltech we have 3 widths depending on the window type. We suggest once you remove the glazing stops, sticking a business card between the sash and glass unit, marking the edge, and measuring that to determine glass width.

Can you please tell me where I can buy a flat utility knife like you show in the video? I can only find ones that have the scribed snap-off blades and yours appears to be a solid long blade ALSO, Great video! Very detailed, THANK YOU!

@eddyrapino9071 Месяц назад

Is it normal that the flazing stops DO NOT come out? Are some thermal units "embedded" into the casement?

@mr.gurney8569 8 лет назад

Is there a tip or a trick to work from the inside only and cut through the exterior caulking - once the glazing stopes are off? I was thinking of use a heat gun the melt it, but don't want to warm the vinyl . My windows are very high up from the outside but easily accessible from the inside. I was also thinking of using a suction holder to pull on the insert to remove them...any ideas . thanks

@colleenwright1508 8 лет назад

Excellent video Kohler. I have Kohler windows and the top LowE sash on a single hung window has a blown seal so I need to replace it while keeping costs down. Your video is very thorough and incredibly easy to follow and will save me some money. Is the procedure the same for the bottom sash of a single hung window?

@heidibenz1911 6 лет назад

Thank you, it was a great help and easy to follow.

@Kohltech 6 лет назад

Not a problem Heidi, glad it helped

@OVI-Wan-Kenobi-8 6 лет назад

Try doing it for a 2nd or 3rd floor window on a ladder.

@vicsanchez786 3 года назад

why does the caulking only go up 6 inches on the sides when replacing? (4.25 min mark on video) Why not all the way around?

@2Jeezuzisreal 3 года назад

So he just did the "Fixed" side. Is the crank out the same? Why not do the crank out? Not all crank/casements are equal. I think mine is factory sealed and can not be dismantled..

@TotalClarity 8 лет назад

Great video. Are there any online resources where I can buy the replacement unit? Local glass shops want about $250 for a 24" x 24" unit. The whole window this size can be bought at Home Depot for $110. Appreciate the help.

There are many varieties of silicone caulking, what should be used to install thermal glass in a vinyl window frame?

@Kohltech 5 лет назад

We use GE Silicone II Window & Door Sealant here, but any strong sealant/adhesive made for windows and doors work. You'll want it in clear.

@HighInfoDIY 5 лет назад

@@Kohltech Thank you so much for the input. My 27" x 8" thermal glass/vinyl window accent pane cracked for no apparent reason (I thought perhaps it was the waterbed in the room above). The broken window unit had no spacer blocks, and there were 2 types of caulk (one was very tough and still sticky 20 years after construction). I couldn't find any real guidance on the right caulking properties for this specialized application. The waterbed was long gone when I removed the thermal unit, and I found plenty of clearance in the vinyl frame. The break happened on a cold day, and the entire double window assembly seems to have been jammed into an undersized framing pocket. That pane could have been badly replaced (wrong caulk) by the builder during construction, with poor installation and added thermal and mechanical stresses. Who knows, but now caulking won't be a contributing issue to failure! Kohltech window construction appeals to the engineer in me. I really appreciate the advice from a manufacturer, and will look for your products when I can finally replace the "builder special" windows in my home.

@123mietus 9 лет назад

Great video. Thanks! If one of the two panes broke, should I replace the double pane unit?

@eberts0604 Год назад

"Thermal unit," Hehe. We used to call them "window panes."

@virtualblues Год назад

Some narration inside/outside confusion takes over 1:45 to 2:35. Appreciate video nonetheless.

@SgtBoudreau 8 лет назад

Do you have one showing you replacing a broken sliding window (sash)? Great video btw!

@McGyver777ATGMAIL 9 лет назад

You guys rock. How do I find out which thermal panel I need? (which window I have?) If it helps I own a meeting street built (no comment) town home. Thanks for the lesson. I have a second story window panel broken inside glass only. Can I do the "outside knife" work by folding my window in? (my windows are fold in like modern windows but are half height panels.) Thanks again!

Can you do an Octogon window please? We have a TAFCO 22" x 22" that I need to replace the IGU and I can't figure out how to get the IGU out.

@erikabrennan3343 5 лет назад

This is a great video but it does seem to show how easy it would be to break into a home then replace the glass and no one would know. Locked room mystery plot!

@Kohltech 5 лет назад

not really as the glazing stops are normally to the inside of the window/sashes

@wade5941 5 лет назад

Problem is you would have to break into the home first to get to the window. And you would need an accomplice to hold the window. And the noise, how do you muffle the noise. And loud cursing when things don't go smoothly. And the dog barking... Columbo would nail you before you got the stops out. Maybe not such a mystery after all. But, at least you're thinking.

@RB028 10 месяцев назад

Why not cault all around ?!

@billglaser 5 лет назад

Just did work similar to this, except the glass was 100”x66” 267lbs a piece what a workout. Lol

@iandavidharwin 9 месяцев назад

What type of caulking is used?

@Kohltech 9 месяцев назад

The type of caulking used is GE sillglaze 11

@IanLoughead 10 лет назад

Do you let the silicone cure before reinstalling the vinyl glazing strips at the end?

@IanLoughead 10 лет назад

Excellent thank you. My replacement thermal glass is on the way and this video should help immensely.

Any certain kind of caulking?

@ronaldwhite6509 6 лет назад

The video is great but where can you purchase the glass?

@kohltech7304 6 лет назад

you should be able to Google "glass repair" in your local area and they should be able to help you or point you in the direction of someone that can supply you the thermal units.

@sgshere 6 лет назад

Is it the same process for a sliding patio glass door?

@keithcumber2395 6 лет назад

It depends on what kind you have but most of the time, no. Patio doors are usually quicker fixes .

Harry Hill a glass company. And please let them replace the unit.

@mikejackson468 8 лет назад

make sure you open your thermalpane from the crate BEFORE starting any removal of trim. They packed the crate with standard crate staples and ONE DECK SCREW. if you have ever tried to pull out a deck screw you would understand, long story short, broken pane sucks
