2 OPENING PREPARATION

A.Inspect the existing window frame and repair or replace any defective or rotted wood parts. Remove or seat any nails.

B.Clean the opening of any dirt, debris, or excess old paint before proceeding. Chisel off any high spots.

C.Apply one piece of sill flashing tape to the sill of the existing window frame. Cut the tape 12" longer than the existing window sill width. Apply the tape on the existing sill 6" up each jamb and press down firmly. The tape will not cover the sill depth completely under the new window.

D.Install and level sill spacers. Place 1" wide by 3/8" thick spacers on the bottom of the window opening 1/2" from each side and 1/2" back from the interior surface of where the new window will rest. Spacers are also required at points where windows are joined in multiple window combinations. Add shims as necessary to ensure the spacers are level.

Note: Improper placement of shims or spacers may result in bowing the bottom of the window.
