Therma-Tru Window Replacement: The Hollywood Owner’s Guide

Therma-Tru window replacement in Hollywood, FL typically runs $340 to $780 per window installed, depending on the series, glass package, and whether the frame needs any work. We stock common Therma-Tru replacement sashes, weatherstripping, and glass packs on our trucks, so most jobs get done in one visit. Owners usually find us after one of three things happens: a window won’t close square against the frame, the seal has fogged between the glass, or the locking hardware has worn to the point where the window no longer secures.

TruePane Windows & Doors is an independent service provider, not affiliated with Therma-Tru. We work on their window lines because we see them in at least a third of the homes we service across Hollywood, and we know how they fail in this climate.

Key Takeaways:

• Installed Therma-Tru window replacement in Hollywood generally lands between $340 and $780 per window.
• Most replacements are completed in a single visit.
• We register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before we leave the driveway.
• Dale Kessler and our techs have been measuring and setting windows in South Broward for going on three decades.

Which Therma-Tru Models This Applies To

Therma-Tru builds several window series, and the replacement path depends on which one you have. The Benchmark and Slim-Line series are the two we run into most often in Hollywood. Benchmark windows use a heavier frame profile with internal steel reinforcement, which matters if you’re swapping a full unit. Slim-Line runs a narrower frame that some owners choose specifically because it preserves more glass area.

Here’s the compatibility gotcha we see on calls every month: a Therma-Tru window label on the head jamb lists a serial number and manufacturing date, but the series name is not always printed. You can identify the series by measuring the frame depth, the sash thickness, and the spacer color between the glass panes. The Benchmark series runs a roughly 3-1/4 inch frame depth; Slim-Line sits closer to 2-3/4. Guessing at the series means ordering a sash that will not seat. We measure every opening twice before ordering, which is exactly how Dale Kessler has avoided the wrong-part callbacks that plague this kind of work.

For most homeowners, the decision comes down to OEM versus a quality aftermarket equivalent. OEM sashes carry the Therma-Tru warranty and match the existing glass tint and grid pattern exactly. A quality aftermarket sash can save roughly 20 percent, but the glass tint, spacer color, and hardware mounting points have to be matched precisely. We quote both on paper, side by side, so you can see exactly what you’re buying and what each option covers.

Signs Your Therma-Tru Window Replacement Is Failing

• Window won’t close square against the frame. The sash has warped or a hinge has worn, and continued forcing will damage the locking points. In Hollywood’s humidity, aluminum-reinforced sashes rarely warp on their own; a sagging sash usually means a hinge or pivot bar has failed first.
• Fog or condensation between the glass panes. The insulated glass unit seal has failed, and no amount of wiping will fix it. Once the seal goes, the argon or krypton gas escapes and the window loses most of its insulating value.
• Drafts you can feel with the window closed. The weatherstripping has compressed or torn, or the sash has settled out of alignment. Either is fixable without replacing the whole unit in most cases.
• Locking hardware that spins without engaging. The lock’s keeps or the sash’s lock stile have worn, which is common after 15-plus years of daily use. A window that does not positively lock is also a window that will not seal against wind-driven rain during Hollywood’s summer storms.
• Visible cracking or flaking at the glazing beads. The vinyl or composite bead that holds the glass in place has degraded from UV exposure. This is the earliest warning sign that the sash is aging and the easiest fix if caught before the glass pack is compromised.

Replacement Cost & What’s Included

In Hollywood, a single Therma-Tru window replacement runs from $340 to $780 installed, depending on what exactly needs replacing. A weatherstripping or hardware replacement lands at the low end. A full sash replacement with a new insulated glass unit sits mid-range. A complete window with frame, when drywall or stucco cuts are involved, lands at the top of that range.

Every price we quote includes the part, labor, disposal of the old unit, and a written line-item estimate before any work starts. There are no surprise charges added after the fact. Both manufacturer warranty layers get registered in writing before the truck leaves your driveway, and our workmanship is covered by the Done Right Promise. If it’s not done right, we make it right. No arguing.

DIY or Call Us?

There are a few things an owner can check before calling: whether the hinges are simply loose, whether debris is blocking the sash track, or whether the locking points need adjustment. These are the fixes that take ten minutes and a screwdriver. What is not worth doing yourself is swapping an insulated glass unit or a full sash. The glass packs are sealed under pressure, the sash is set and shimmed to keep the window square, and a misaligned sash will bind in the frame from day one.

If the frame itself has settled, that is not a parts problem. That is a water-intrusion or structural conversation, and in Hollywood’s storm season it is not one to postpone. Call us at (863) 334-2933. Dale Kessler will tell you straight whether you need a part or a professional opinion, and the estimate is free either way.
