Aren’t replacement windows better because they tilt in and are easier to clean?
The mechanical restoration of your wooden windows will allow both the top and bottom sashes to open and close with ease. Thus wooden windows may be cleaned with greater ease. The tilting mechanism on replacement windows has had a history of breakage due to its design. Weight and pulley operation is one of the most durable and efficient mechanical systems that, with proper lubrication, has lasted successfully in many homes for as much as two hundred years.
