Don’t worry, we have a simple trick that can help improve their performance.
By following these easy steps, you can make your sash windows slide up and down with ease.
- Spray Silicone Spray: Grab a can of silicone spray and apply it to the channels where the sashes run. This lubricant will reduce friction and allow the windows to move more smoothly.
- Treat the Lower Sash: Slide the lower sash up and spray silicone into the channel. Make sure to cover the entire length for optimal results.
- Treat the Upper Sash: Now, slide the upper sash down and spray silicone into the channel. Apply a generous amount to ensure proper lubrication.
- Test and Repeat: Move the sashes up and down several times to distribute the silicone spray evenly. If necessary, repeat the process until your sash windows operate effortlessly.
