A rectangular outer sash frame has extruded plastic frame members with inwardly projecting flange portions overlapping a peripheral edge portion of an outer glass panel of an insulated glass unit. A removable inner sub-sash frame interconnects with the outer sash frame and has extruded plastic frame members with inwardly projecting flange portions overlapping and bonded to a peripheral edge portion of at least one of the glass panels. Extruded plastic glazing members have flange portions overlapping a peripheral edge portion of the inner glass panel and include retaining flange portions projecting between the outer sash frame and the inner sub-sash frame. In another embodiment, the sub-sash frame has integrally extruded parallel spaced walls projecting inwardly between and bonded to the peripheral edge portions of both the inner and outer glass panels.

A window assembly comprising a rectangular outer sash frame including a set of elongated sash frame members of extruded rigid plastics material with said sash frame members rigidly connected at corner portions of said sash frame, a set of parallel spaced rectangular inner and outer glass panels surrounded by said outer sash frame, said sash frame members including flange portions projecting laterally inwardly and overlapping a peripheral edge portion of said outer glass panel, a rectangular inner sub-sash frame disposed within said outer sash frame and including elongated sub-sash frame members of extruded rigid plastics material, said sub-sash frame members including laterally inwardly projecting flange portions overlapping a peripheral edge portion of at least one of said glass panels, a bonding material securing said flange portions of said sub-sash frame members to said peripheral edge portion of said one glass panel, a set of elongated glazing members of extruded plastics material, said glazing members including laterally inwardly projecting flange portions overlapping a peripheral edge portion of said inner glass panel, said glazing members including retaining portions engaging said outer sash frame, each of said sash frame members including an inner wall defining a recess, and said retaining portion of the corresponding said glazing member comprises a spring-like flange portion seated within said recess and pressing against the corresponding said sub-sash frame member. 5. A window assembly comprising a rectangular outer sash frame including a set of elongated sash frame members of extruded rigid plastics material with said sash frame members rigidly connected at corner portions of said sash frame, a set of parallel spaced rectangular inner and outer glass panels surrounded by said outer sash frame, said sash frame members including flange portions projecting laterally inwardly and overlapping a peripheral edge portion of said outer glass panel, said flange portions having integral flexible lip seals engaging said outer glass panel, a rectangular inner sub-sash frame disposed within said outer sash frame and including elongated sub-sash frame members of extruded rigid plastics material, said sub-sash frame members including laterally inwardly projecting flange portions overlapping a peripheral edge portion of at least one of said glass panels, a bonding material securing said flange portions of said sub-sash frame members to said peripheral edge portion of said one glass panel, a set of elongated glazing members of extruded plastics material, said glazing members including laterally inwardly projecting flange portions overlapping a peripheral edge portion of said inner glass panel, said glazing members including retaining portions releasably engaging said outer sash frame and spring-like flange portions releasably engaging said sub-sash frame, and said sash frame members and said sub-sash frame members have longitudinally extending interfitting portions limiting lateral movement of said sub-sash frame within said outer sash frame. 6. A window assembly as defined in claim 5 wherein said sub-sash frame members are mitered and welded at said corner portions of said sub-sash frame. 7. A window assembly as defined in claim 5 wherein each of said sub-sash frame members includes a base portion integrally connected to a corresponding said flange portion, and said base portion has generally an H-shape cross-sectional configuration and covers outer edge surfaces of said glass panels. 8. A window assembly as defined in claim 5 wherein each of said sash frame members includes an inner wall defining a recess, and said retaining flange portion of the corresponding said glazing member seats within said recess and presses laterally inwardly against the corresponding said sub-sash frame member. 9. A window assembly comprising a rectangular outer sash frame including a set of elongated extrusions of rigid plastics material forming outer sash frame members having mitered and welded corner portions for said sash frame, a set of parallel spaced rectangular inner and outer glass panels surrounded by said outer sash frame and having peripheral edge portions bonded together, said sash frame members of said outer sash frame including integral flange portions projecting laterally inwardly and overlapping a peripheral edge portion of said outer glass panel, said flange portions of said outer sash frame members including lip seals contacting said outer glass panel, a rectangular inner sub-sash frame disposed within said outer sash frame and including elongated extrusions of rigid plastic material forming sub-sash frame members having mitered and welded corner portions for said sub-sash frame, said sub-sash frame members including longitudinally extending and laterally inwardly projecting integral flange portions overlapping a peripheral edge portion of only said outer glass panel, said flange portions of said frame members of said outer sash frame overlapping said flange portions of said sub-sash frame members of said inner sub-sash frame around the entire peripheral edge portion of said outer glass panel, a bonding material securing said flange portions of said sub-sash frame members to said peripheral edge portion of said outer glass panel, a set of elongated extrusions of plastics material forming removable glazing members, said glazing members including laterally inwardly projecting flange portions overlapping a peripheral edge portion of said inner glass panel and including lip seals contacting said inner glass panel, said sub-sash frame members including longitudinally extending integral base portions closely surrounding and overlapping peripheral edge surfaces of said glass panels, and said glazing members including retaining portions engaging said frame members of said outer sash frame and also engaging said base portions of said sub-sash frame members. 10.
