How do I tilt in my EcoShield window to clean it?
EcoShield single hung and double hung windows are designed for easy cleaning by tilting the sashes inward so the outside of the window can be cleaned from the inside. To tilt a window in for cleaning, first unlock the security locks on the sash. Each window comes with two tilt latches on each operating sash. Raise the bottom sash about three inches. Using both hands, disengage the tilt latches on both sides simultaneously. While holding the latches with your thumbs, gently pull the top of the sash toward you until the latches are clear of the frame. Holding the top of the sash, continue to lower it until you pass 90 degrees. This will lock the balance shoes in place. To tilt the top sash (on the double hung), lower the sash about three inches and follow the same procedures. To return either sash to its operating position, swing the sash back up and push the top of the sash gently until the tilt latches snap back in the side jambs.
