INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

for Wood/Clad Wood Windows with Exterior Trim or Nail Fin (JII024)

PREPARE STUD-FRAMED WALL

45°

FOR RETROFIT INSTALLATIONS

After removing the old window, remove sufcient siding to expose

enough intact building wrap to properly seal the window to the

opening. If damaged, apply new building wrap in shiplap manner.

Verify the rough opening framing is structurally sound. Continue with

the instructions.

PREPARE BUILDING WRAP

Note! Check with the building

wrap manufacturer to verify

the following steps will not

void their product warranty.

Follow manufacturers'

instructions.

1. Trim building wrap ush

with the rough opening.

2. At the head, cut building

wrap at 45° and tape up as

shown.

3. Trim the sides sufciently

to allow the nailing n to

be mounted against the

sheathing.

PREPARE SILL

1. Use self adhesive ashing to waterproof the sill.

2. Flashing must have at least 2"

of visible material below nail

n. Flashing width must be at

least measurement

1 + 2 + 1 3/4".

3. Measure the width of the

frame from the interior to

the nail n (measurement 1)

and subtract 1/4". Transfer

this measurement from the

outside edge of the rough

opening sill and draw a line

all along the rough opening

sill. This is where the back of

the ashing will sit.

4. Cut a piece of ashing the

length of the sill plus 12".

5. Place ashing on rough

opening sill, wrapping the

ashing up 6" on each jamb

as shown.

6. Pull release tape and set

ashing into place.

7. Fold the ashing down onto

the sheathing. Staple ashing

to the wall and seal the corner

edges as shown.

8. Smooth out any bubbles or creases with a J-roller. Remove and

replace if necessary.

9. Install the continuous shim as follows:

Note! The continuous shim

must be 1/2" shorter than the

width of the window frame,

be 1/4" narrower than the

depth of the window frame

sill, should level the rough

opening sill and be no more

than 1/4" thick.

Align the shim on the sill ush

with the exterior and centered

between the side jambs. If

installing a mulled unit, leave

gaps at the mull joint(s) so they don't sit on the shim and tack into

place or secure with sealant.
