What sealant do you use to bond the glass blocks to the channel?

Is it possible to install these in a wood wall without using mortar? Is there some sort of frame I can buy or frame kit that would allow installation with shims, backer rod, and caulk instead of mortar?

Where in SA can I buy this? Many phone calls later, nowhere to find.

Any advice for a window with joists sitting on top of the wood frame? (1928 house)

Very clear video - made it sound easy! (We'll see!!)

Hello ~ Friend ~ Very well done. Thank you. Mark ~

if there were a sill plate made of wood on top of window could you mortar between it and window or should it be caulked? thx

Well done, and you're a fantastic instructor.

Just ordered one for my bathroom. Can’t wait to install.

Do they blocke noose better than a 3 pane window??

What if the window sill is not flat or level?

Wow, Thankyou. just here to learn about blocks but got a education on filling small gaps with the pointer & trowel. Thankyou. I'm a pro house painter & a renaissance man. Done lots of mortar shite & I'm just very happy now.

I have very old glass block window and in a couple areas the mortar has begun to crumble out a bit, can I just fill it with fresh goo after I clean up all the loose mortar? And what do you recommend I use?

thanks for the video. I have a question: what if the window is made from 22 blocks, so the weight is around 50 kg. Wouldn't it be convenient to put in (while constructing the window from blocks) to put in some metal rods or something which you could introduce inside the walls to ensure it wouldn't fall if you lean on it?

2023 and i just bought my first house. The insurance company will not insure my home due to a busted out basement window. I will use glass block. I appreciate this very much. Your expertise is gonna help me get insurance for my home. I dont think you understand what that means to me. Subscriber for life.

They don't even come with spacers prefabbed lol

Excellent video right to the point thank you

How are the the channels attached to std construction block?

Great training! I’m an older woman and I believe that I can do this (with a helper to hold the window). Lowe’s gave an in-person training with single blocks and adhesive from a tube. Single blocks would be easier for me to handle with my weak arms. Thank you for the info.❤

Awesome. Thank you 😊.

how do you add mortar to the top row 🤔😳

may please help to advs the clear finishing brand?

This is easy of the window opening is the right size. What is the window size is different?

r value?

Step 1. Already have glass block window. Step 2. Finish.

Could this video be any better? No, it is perfect! Thank you!

Thank I have six glass block basement windows on order. Thank you for 🎉 tutorial, I feel confident that I can do this job thanks to onthis vid o!

What about the inside?

Ok

Thank you, I have watched many of these shows and found your presentation very helpful and professional.

Wow most simplest video ever

When you use the vertical anchors to attach to the horizontal spacers, do you still need to use the bottom and top channel perimeter pieces? And if you don't need the bottom and top channel perimeter pieces, how do you complete installation at the bottom and top of the glass block window?

This is really great! I have never done home improvements, this was very easy to follow instructions, I cannot wait to get started on all my home improvement projects. Thank you for this video!

Helpful, but your dialogue is damn near verbatim to this old video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fJh3isyLnLKWcac.html

Come to my channel for glass block

Hi there! At time stamp 2:08 into video, please share the brand and type of mortar you are using. Thank you

Bob villa says I need a professional installer , not for DiY.

Do I have to mortar the top of the window or can I make it tight to the wood plate and caulk that joint?

I think this system was used to install our glass block shower wall, but there is mold in between the blocks. Is it possible to remove blocks one at a time for replacement or does the whole wall have to come down?

Make sure not to call the mason who did the brick on that house! Geeze

Where can we buy the provantage glass block fittings?

With that top inside rail not secured with screws, would that not make it susceptible to someone pushing from the outside in, such as in a break-in attempt? Was looking at glass block for a security factor.

How much space should I leave on the sides and bottom and top of window.

You showed how to measure the opening but how much smaller should the window be?

Looks like project my dad and I can easily accomplish! So glad I do not have to call a handyman.

How does the silicone installation method compare to mortar in strength?

RGF Industries: I need to install one of your REDI2SET vent windows in my entry DOOR, except that the width of my door is ~2 inches, and the width of your vent is ~3 inches. I know that your vent is designed for glass blocks. Can you possibly manufacture a 24 x 8 inch vent that can be installed in my DOOR? You already make a 24 x 8 inch size vent for glass block. This could be a million dollar idea. It is ridiculous that I am unable to find such a vent in the entire planet! Why are they made only for glass block windows and not DOORS? I need a door window vent that can be opened and closed, and that has an insect screen. There is a need for such vents to be installed on exterior doors!!! Please get the idea out there asap, and start manufacturing them to sell the product. Such vents would be ideal in hot hot weather, and for use in spaces, such as enclosed porches and entryways. They are more secure than leaving a window open for ventilation of ordinary home spaces above the basement level. Thank you. I'm sure you will be thanking me if you use this idea, and I'm sure you will profit from it.
