How to Remove the Sash on a Narroline Anderson Window
Narroline windows by Andersen are double hung, with a natural wood interior and vinyl cladding on the exterior. They have dual-pane insulating glass with Low-E. These windows are available in many different sizes and you have the option of replacing only the window sash without removing the entire frame. The first step toward replacing the sash is removing the old one. This is a job any homeowner can handle in only a few minutes with just a couple of tools.

Remove the sill stop located along the sill. Locate the screws holding the sill in place and unscrew them with a screwdriver. Pull up on the sill very carefully so it does not break and remove it from the sealant holding it in place. Cut along the sealant with a utility knife if necessary.
