Contact Loewen at 1.800.563.9367 for clarification. Loewen is not responsible for site measurements nor thestructural and architectural requirements for the installationof the windows. Building design, construction methods, building materialsand site conditions unique to your project may requiremethods different from these instructions. Choosing the appropriate method is the responsibility of you,your architect, or your construction professional. Confirm with sealant/foam/barrier manufacturers that allmaterials used are compatible with one another. Remove shipping blocks and related staples prior toinstallation. All drawings are shown not to scale. To ensure accuracy, make sure you have the latest approvedshop drawings and assembly and installation guides. Any local, regional or national building code requirementssupersede these instructions. Safety is top priority for Loewen. Use proper workprocedures and protective equipment.2
LO E W E N D O U B L E H U N G W I N D O W I N S TA L L AT I O N G U I D EVerify The Rough Opening Measure the rough opening and the window to determine that the sizeis correct. Recommended rough opening is between 3/4” (19mm) - 1”(25mm) larger than the window width and height. Ensure that the rough opening is plumb, level and square, and thewalls in the opening are not twisted.a) 1 1/2” (38 mm) solid blocking is required at the sill and sides ofthe opening.b) Ensure proper header is in place before installation.c) Make necessary corrections.Vital Preparation Information Specifically for Double HungSquareness of the window along with proper shimming and adjustment of the jamb jacks is required to ensure thatthe frame weatherstrip makes adequate contact with the sash. This is vital to the product performance. Ensure that nodaylight is visible between the sash and frame.Jamb Jack AdjustmentUse the Jamb Jacks Screw to obtain an even gap between Sash andFrame. Using a T25 Torx screwdriver, turn the Jamb Jacks ScrewHeadclockwise to move the Jambs away from the Sash or counterclockwise tomove the Jambs towards the Sash. Adjust until the gap is consistent fromthe top of the sash to bottom and both sides.Check RailSee page 14 for further information on Jamb Jack installation andadjustment.SillAdjust the shims at the Check Rail as necessary.Do not remove shipping strap prior to installation of unitinto rough opening.3
