by driving two  

#6 x 1-1/2" or longer corrosion resistant screws into 
the pre-punched holes in the clips. If clips are bent and 
fastened to the interior stud/block, install the screws as 
close to the bend as possible.

Caution: Ensure use of low pressure polyurethane window and door insulating 
foams and strictly follow the foam manufacturer’s recommendations for 
application. Use of high pressure foams or improper application of the foam may 
cause the window frame to bow and hinder operation.

INTERIOR SEAL

{

6A

A. 

Apply insulating foam sealant. 

From the interior, insert 

the nozzle of the applicator into the space between the 
window and the rough opening approximately 1" past 
the edge of the frame (and past the jamb extensions) 
and apply a 1" deep bead of foam. This will allow room 
for expansion of the foam and will minimize squeeze 
out. Apply sealant across the interior surface of the 
shims to create a continuous seal. Follow foam 
manufacturer's instructions.

Note: DO NOT place any foam between jamb 
extensions and the rough opening.

Note: DO NOT completely fill the space from the 
back of the fin to the interior face of the opening.
