Continuous Air Seal
NOTE: Shims may need to be cut back, so the interior air seal is
“continuous“ between the window frame and the rough opening.
Create a required continuous air seal on the interior by integrating the
rough opening and the window frame with low-expansion polyurethane
foam or backer rod and sealant. NOTE: If foam is used, a 1/2" - 1" depth
is prescribed. Backer rod can be used to control the depth.
Low-expansion foam
If applicable, remove any protective lm immediately
from all surfaces of the frame/sash and within six
months from any glass.

After Installation
• Ensure weep holes/channels are clear of debris for proper water
drainage. DO NOT seal weep holes/channels.
• Install exterior wall surface per manufacturer’s guidelines.
• Leave an expansion/contraction gap of approximately 3/8" between the
window frame and nal exterior wall surface (siding, stucco, etc.).
• Protect recently installed units from damage from plaster, paint, etc.
• The head and seat board should be protected (e.g., roof, skirt) and
insulated with rigid foam.
