The old kitchen window (new kitchen location, old window) came out today. The old sliders that are in the house now don’t seem very old, but they are stiff to open and close, and plastic parts are broken. The new one is a triple pane casement.
The removal didn’t take much effort, but altering the framing did. By building code, if we are not enlarging the window, the original framing can be used without being required to add king, jack, or cripple studs and headers. The old window was 30W x 60H, and the new one is 30W x 40H.
