    Another home owner able to figure out how to repair their windows thanks to a video on youtube. Incredibly appreciative of people and teams like yourselves who take the time to make these tutorials and publish them so that we can learn and then carry out these repairs. Thank you!

    Thanks man.
    I have tried to get someone to fix the window for YEARS.
    I can fix it now that you showed me how to fix it.
    I don't like to fix things if I don't understand how it works.
    I can fix most things.
    ❤👍👍👍👍🇨🇦

    Great video; I have 22 year old vinyl windows and the first one just broke...very helpful!

    Thank you! My windows are a different brand but with a similar coil type. Mine didnt have a cutout so I wasnt sure how to replace the coil without breaking the windkw!
    Edit: I did a little careful surgery in the window to make a similar cutout. Now the spring is replaced and the window is good as new!

      This is my issue no cutout 😅 can I ask how u performed the surgery ?

      ​@@fourtwentythreesorry it took so long to reply. I took a multitool with a flat blade attachment and just cut a notch similar to what already exists in this window. Just make sure you do it high like his is so that there is no risk of it slipping out unintentionally during normal usage. Id post a video but unfortunately I have a window AC in that window right now.

    • @resevil2396

      Looking at his again Im actually wondering if these are truely built into the window or if its normal for a contractor to cut these upon installation because those edges do look a little rough compared to the rest of the frame.

    Do I have to buy new items or can I just reuse it and refit it? The coil is above the plastic bit and the window no longer opens

    How do you identify the balance size of the original screen? I'd like to order a replacement set. Great video.

    You will have to cut the vinyl back to get the coil balance out

      Luckily, this window hand a cut-out, but check out our other videos that demonstrate how to cut the vinyl.

      If your RV window has coil balance, it should be the same process! If you still have questions, though, just reach out to us here - www.swisco.com/page-id-part

    Man why don’t these windows have a cut out? Makes it impossible to replace. I don’t feel comfortable cutting my window. Guess I will keep using my stick to hold it open

    • @SWISCO
      @SWISCO  3 роки тому +1

      It seems some manufacturers would rather have you replace the whole window.
