STORM WINDOW REQUIREMENTS
A storm window frame will not allow the
air conditioner to tilt toward the outside,
and will keep it from draining properly.
To adjust for this, attach a piece of wood
to the sill.
WOOD PIECES –
WIDTH: 2
″
LENGTH:
Long enough to fit inside the
window frame.
THICKNESS:
To determine the thickness,
place a piece of wood on the sill to make
it 1/2
″
higher than the top of the storm
window frame or the vinyl frame.
Attach securely with nails or screws
provided by the installer.
