Installation Instructions

• Position the starter strip’s flange underneath the furring strips and assure a

perfect level before you fasten the strip at every furring strip. Attach with #8

or #10 corrosion resistant screws. The screws must penetrate at least 1 1/4”

(32mm) into the perimeter joists or into the studs.

Installing the SV-Starter and Furring Strips

Adjust to hide

foundation line

• Measure and mark each corner where you want the first row of Novabrik to

start. We usually mark each corner at 1/2” (13mm) above the foundation.

• Hold the string straight and tight at both ends and snap the line on the house

wrap.

• Line up the furring strips over the framing studs and above the chalk line.

Attach with # 8 or # 10 corrosion resistant screws at 10” (250mm) c/c. The

screws must penetrate at least 1 1/4” (32mm) into the studs.

NOTE: Do not screw the furring strips at elevation 0”, they will be

screwed into studs when anchoring the starter strip.
