Simple Replacement Steps. Outstanding Results.

The Kolbe® Ultra pocket double hung is an all-in-one replacement window unit. This unique feature means that existing trim and framework do not have to be removed before installation, helping to eliminate excess work and potential damage. Not only is installation simplified, but by replacing your old windows with energy efficient ones, you will save on heating and cooling costs throughout the year.

Featuring a 3-1/4" pocket jamb depth, the unit fits into most standard replacement applications. The exterior frame and sash are made of a durable extruded aluminum and are coated with a 70% fluoropolymer finish. Both sash contain LoE2-270 insulating glass, and can be tilted in for easy cleaning and removal. PVC jambliners are hidden by a wood-wrapped jambliner closure on the interior and an extruded aluminum jambliner closure on the exterior, creating a smooth overall appearance.

Interior stops are replaced to finish up the installation of the Ultra pocket double hung.

Each unit is built to meet exact specifications, allowing for complete customization. Besides standard double hungs and studio units, expand the replacement possibilities with segment head and half-circle top units. With a large selection of exterior and interior finishes, color matching will never be an issue. Or, for a more distinct look, custom colors and finishes are also available.

With simple installation, custom sizes and options, the Ultra pocket double hung is a perfect choice for any scale remodeling or renovation project. Talk to your local Kolbe dealer for more information.

Ultra Pocket Double Hung Measuring Guide Determining if the Ultra Pocket Double Hung is Right for You: Check the existing frame for any signs of damaged or rotted wood. Repair or replace any damaged or rotted wood on the frame. Next, measure horizontally between the blindstop and the interior stop (Figure 1) to determine the jamb depth. If the damage cannot be repaired or the jamb depth is less than 3-1/4", the Ultra pocket double hung will not work for you.

A new unit with full frame replacement will have to be used instead.

Measuring the Opening: Things To Remember: ➢ Record measurements and round down to the nearest 1/8". ➢ Measure each window, even if they appear to be the same size.

Check the opening for squareness. Measure diagonally from corner to corner, repeat for remaining corners (Figure 2). Measurements should be within 1/4" of each other. If the measurements are not similar, you will have to downsize the new unit accordingly in order to square the new unit in the existing frame.

Figure 2 - Interior View Measure existing frame diagonally to check squareness.

2. Raise or remove the sash to take the measurements. You may also need to remove the jambliners if the side jambs are not visible (Figure 1a).

Dimension “C”

3.

To determine the width of the new window, measure from side jamb to side jamb. Measure across the top, middle and bottom to find the smallest dimension (Figure 3). The smallest measurement will be dimension “A”.

4. For the height of the new window measure twice from the head jamb (top of frame) to the sill (bottom) to get dimension “B” and “C” (Figure 1). Take three measurements - one at each side and one in the middle.

5. Measure horizontally between the blindstop and the interior stop to get Dimension “D” (Figure 1).

Dimension “A”

6. Record dimension “A” (width), dimension “B” (height), dimension “C” (height) and dimension “D” (width) for each window in the chart on the following page.

Note: Kolbe will subtract 1/2" from the width and 1/4" from the height to obtain the actual size of the unit to be built.

This is to make sure that the new unit will fit within the existing opening.
