Ten Tips for Good Installation
-
Read and follow the installation instructions.
-
With the exception of skylights and roof windows, install your Andersen products only in the vertical position.
-
Check the rough opening to make sure it is sized properly and is square and level.
-
Apply proper flashing under and around window and door openings.
-
Double-check the alignment of the window before finally anchoring it in the wall, and properly secure using appropriate fasteners.
-
Insulate the interior cavity between the window frame and the rough opening. Do not overpack.
-
Stain and/or seal all unfinished wood surfaces promptly to minimize moisture absorption.
-
Keep paint off the weatherstrip and the interior hardware finish.
-
Protect the window during construction and plastering.
-
Ensure proper installation and operation of the window before applying the interior trim.
Proper measurement and installation of Andersen® products is the sole responsibility of the architect, building owner, contractor and/or consumer.
