STEP 3. Secure window using four (4) pan head or round head
wood screws (2 on each side) that are secured through the
side wall installation channels (inset 1). If there aren’t prepunched, installation holes these can be drilled 4” to 6” from
each corner. CAUTION: DO NOT screw through top header or
bottom sill as this may distort the window and its operation.
STEP 4. Apply silicone caulk (or other type of approved
sealant) to the opening between the interior and exterior main
frame and wall.
STEP 5. Finish interior/exterior trim as desired.
