Appliance Preparation
Below are some tips on how to best avoid any
cracking:
• Allow materials to dry thoroughly before fi nishing
the wall. Cement board has the ability to absorb up
to 30 percent of its weight in water and may shrink
as much as 1/8” over a 48” length when drying from
a saturated condition. Running the
fi replace before
fi nal fi nishing will help drive out moisture.
• Always use tape over joints.
• Use multiple, thinner coats of joint compound and
allow to dry thoroughly between coats.
• Ensure framing materials are dry.
• After
fi nishing the wall, introduce heat gradually to
slowly dry any excess moisture rather than drying
too fast.
Window Removal
The window is held in place by a spring-loaded lever on
each side.
1. To remove the window, locate the levers on each
side of the window towards the top. Using your
fi nger, pull the lever towards you and unhook it from
the window frame bracket.
2. Gently pull the top of the window outward.
3. Lift the window out of its bottom railing and set it
aside in a safe place to avoid damage.
