STEP 5) INSTALLING THE HWD1 WATER DEFLECTOR

The HWD1 water deflector is

designed to be used with several

EFCO storefront systems. For

this reason, the deflector needs to

be modified to fit the 525 system

glazing pockets. See figure 66 to

the right for HWD1 modification.

Install the HWD1 at the ends of the intermediate horizontals only. It is

not required at heads or sills. Use 795 or equivalent silicone type

sealant to adhere the HWD1 onto the intermediate horizontal. Ensure

that the HWD1 fits flush with the top of the intermediate horizontal

glazing pocket, and smooth any excess 795 sealant so water will flow
easily over the water deflector. See typical installation of the HWD1 in

figures 67 and 68 below.
