EXTERIOR FINISH OF ALUMINUM CLAD WINDOWS

The exterior frame and sash are protected by aluminum cladding with our tough EnduraClad® or EnduraClad Plus baked-on factory finish that requires no painting. Clean this surface with mild soap and water. Stubborn strains and deposits may be removed with mineral spirits. DO NOT use abrasives. DO NOT scrape or use tools that might damage the surface.

Use of inappropriate solvents, brickwash or cleaning chemicals will cause adverse reactions with window and door materials and voids the Limited Warranty.

INTERIOR FINISH

If products cannot be finished immediately, cover with clear plastic to protect from dirt, damage and moisture. Remove any construction residue before finishing. Sand all wood surfaces lightly with 180 grit or finer sandpaper. DO NOT use steel wool. BE CAREFUL NOT TO SCRATCH THE GLASS. Remove sanding dust.

Pella products must be finished per the below instructions; failure to follow these instructions voids the Limited Warranty.

•On casement and awnings, it is optional to paint, stain or finish the vertical and horizontal sash edges.

•On single-hungs and double-hungs, do not paint, stain or finish the vertical sash edges; any finish on the vertical sash edges may cause the sash to stick. It is optional to paint, stain or finish the horizontal sash edges.

•On patio doors, it is optional to paint, stain or finish the vertical and horizontal panel edges.

Note: To maintain proper product performance do not paint, finish or remove the weather- stripping, mohair dust pads, gaskets or vinyl parts. Air and water leakage will result if these parts are removed. After finishing, allow venting windows and doors to dry completely before closing them.

Pella Corporation is not responsible for interior paint and stain finish imperfections for any product that is not factory-applied by Pella Corporation. Use of inappropriate finishes, solvents, brickwash, or cleaning chemicals will cause adverse reactions with the window and door materials and voids the Limited Warranty.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Care and maintenance information is available by contacting your local Pella retailer. This information is also available at www.pella.com.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Because all construction must anticipate some water infiltration, it is important that the wall system be designed and constructed to properly manage moisture. Pella Corporation is not responsible for claims or damages caused by anticipated and unanticipated water infiltration; deficiencies in building design, construction and maintenance; failure to install Pella® products in accordance with Pella installation instructions; or the use of Pella products in wall systems which do not allow for proper management of moisture within the wall systems. The determination of the suitability of all building components, including the use of Pella products, as well as the design and installation of flashing and sealing systems are the responsibility of the Buyer or User, the architect, contractor, installer, or other construction professional and are not the responsibility of Pella.

Pella products should not be used in barrier wall systems which do not allow for proper management of moisture within the wall systems, such as barrier Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems, (EIFS) (also known as synthetic stucco) or other non-water managed systems. Except in the states of California, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and Colorado, Pella makes no warranty of any kind and assumes no responsibility for Pella windows and doors installed in barrier wall systems. In the states listed above, the installation of Pella products in barrier wall or similar systems must be in accordance with Pella installation instructions.

Product modifications that are not approved by Pella Corporation will void the Limited Warranty.
