A. 

place three 3/8” beads of sealant.

 

Place the first beads sealant ½” from 

the base of the interior sill pan lip. 

This bead should also continue up the 

corner of the sill pan at each end, sealing the vertical 

joints of the sill pan legs. Continue the first bead  up 

6” onto each jamb side of the rough opening. The 

second bead should be approximately ½” from the 

exterior edge of the rough opening, running from 

jamb to jamb with a 2” break in the middle of the 

opening. Place a third sealant bead in the groove 

of the sill support from end to end or ¼” from the 

exterior edge of the wood blocking. 

Note: Sill sealant detail is the same for applications 

with and without optional sill pan.
