I have an older Anderson wood-framed window in my dining room and the outer pane is broken. I'd love to be able to get a piece of replacement glass cut so that I could install it myself. Only problem is that I am not familiar with how the window is put together.

Anyone ever replace the glass in one of these windows?

Here's some pics to make some sense of the situation...

Eddie in MI,You should not try to fix this by replacing part of the glass on the outside-it is considered a one piece unit.What you need to do is get the glass code from the corner of the sash,it"s a printed white triangle with the Anderson logo and a bunch of numbers.Write the code down on a piece of paper and call this number 1-888-888-7020 Anderson WindowCare Service.They will ask a few questions and direct you in the right direction.You should be able to place your order with a credit card and they will send you a new sash by UPS.That window doesn"t look to be that old so it shouldn"t be a problem.

The pieces on the outside of the window are snapped into place and hold the glass in the frame. Pry on them with a putty knife as I recall. Slide it along the gap as there may be release points you have to pry at. Been too long sonce I did one....
On some models of Andersen's the window will tip in after being raised and should allow you to remove the entire window from the casing. Easier to work on at a bench that way.

Maybe a cost effective / time effective solution is to order a new sash from your local Andersen dealer?

Outer pane broken, so double pane glass and getting one cut, sorry you can't do that, it is a thermopane glass that both panes are sealed together and you have to buy the double pane assembly by size and replace both the inner and outer pane as a single unit

Hi Eddie, I used to do mill service work on those years back, Yes you can do it your self,The paine is removed by removing the "Stops" on the inside of the window,They might be painted over,so look close to find the edge of the molding ,also called the stops. I used to use a putty knife to get it started,be careful,they are held in with either nails or staples,do the long sides first,bowing them from the middle,after they're out measure the glass size as you might break the glass getting it out,or get the new glass before you take the old glass out, hope this helps Jim in N M

You had best check with an Andersen dealer or rep. They deal with this all the time I'm sure. I have one in a bathroom that has a small irridescent spot on the inside pane and water vaper condenses all around it. I guess it will need to be replaced also.

I think the Window Companies will stand behind the ones that get moisture between, due to failed seals, as long as it was not done by physical damage.

I would try to remove that bead on the outside. Try pushing it towards the center of the window with a putty knife. If that does not work try pulling the bead up and away from the glass. Some anderson windows have plastic welded sash and the glass is nonreplaceable.
