S.Fasten the window in the opening by driving the 2-1/2" long screws through each pre- drilled hole in the window frame, through the shims and into the rough opening.

Note: Single-hung: Raise the lower sash to access lower installation holes. Double-

hung: Lower the top sash to access the upper installation holes and raise the lower sash to access the lower installation holes. Tilt the lower sash to the interior to access the installation holes at the checkrail. Assistance from the interior is recommended for this step.

5 INTERIOR SEAL

Caution: Ensure use of low pressure polyurethane window and door insulating foams and strictly follow the foam manufacturer’s recommendations for application. Use of high pressure foams or improper application of the foam may cause the window frame to bow and hinder operation.

A.Apply insulating foam sealant. From the interior, insert the nozzle of the applicator approximately 1" deep into the space between the window and the rough opening and apply a 1" deep bead of foam. This will allow room for expansion of the foam and will minimize squeeze out. Apply sealant across interior surface of shims

to create a continuous seal. For windows with jamb extensions installed, ensure the foam is placed between the window frame and the rough opening, not between the jamb extension and the rough opening. Follow foam manufacturer's instructions.

Note: If the window does not operate correctly, check to make sure it is still plumb, level, square, and the jambs are not bowed. If adjustments are required, remove the foam with a serrated knife. Adjust the shims and reapply the insulating foam sealant.

Interior Finish or Trim:

The space between the new window and the existing window’s frame will need to be covered

with trim. There are many ways to accomplish this and each case can be unique. How this is

done will be the decision of the homeowner or window installer. A few possibilities include using cove, quarter round, or a stop moulding.
