AFTER INSTALLATION
1. Adjust window
for best
operation.
2. Install exterior
wall surface
within
seven days
of window
installation.
3. Maintain
gap of 3/8"
between
window frame
and final
exterior wall
surface (siding,
stucco, etc.).
4. Ensure weep
holes/channels are clear of debris for proper water drainage; do not
seal weep holes/channels if present.
5. Protect recently installed units from damage from plaster, paint, etc.
by covering the unit with plastic.
Garden windows
are rated for a
weight handling
load of 8 lbs.
per square foot.
Although it is
not required,
the installer may
provide extra
support to the
garden window
with “L” brackets.
Build seat board
bracing under the
mull joints of the
unit. To reduce
heat loss, the
bottom of the
window may be
insulated. Check local building code requirements.
COMPLETE INSTALLATION
1. Release the building wrap from above the header (previously taped
up) and overlap the header flashing. Seal the ends with self-adhesive
flashing or building wrap tape.
2. Seal the top corners of the window with a 1/4" bead of sealant. Tool
into a fillet shape.
3. Create a continuous air seal around the entire interior perimeter of
the window with a bead of sealant where the window contacts the
structure.
