This time on Building Resilience, we’re gonna install some windows like you’ve never seen before, featuring what Pella calls the Steady-Set system, which means you install them from the inside. There are SIX innovations we consider remarkable in this system:
00:00 start
01:10 1/ Flip and Click Bracket allows you to place and fasten windows from the inside, standing on the floor, rather than a ladder of rickety scaffold.
02:08 2/ Head Stabilizer: Spring steel "fingers" grab header temporarily holding window and preventing it from falling inside.
02:45 3/ Sill Shim: Pre-applied spacers hold window off framing 1/4 inch allowing a consistent gap for canned foam over sealant.
03:09 4/ Shim Guide: On tall windows, pre-applied guides hold shims in proper position to prevent frame bowing
03:50 5/ Flashing Fin: The fully integrated flashing fin is airtight and watertight, so you don't need to extend flashing tape onto the window frame.
04:39 6/ Adjustable Clips for Thick Walls: For walls that are not 2x4 or 2x6, adjustable brackets tailer window position to wall thickness.
