This can frequently lead to <br />negative nterior air pressure. Negative air pressure can draw water through very small openings, increasing the risk of <br />water Ie ge. The installation method seals the water plane of the window to the weather barrier of the structure and uses <br />a. sill p ,to capture and drain incidental stonn water from under the window. <br /> <br />l:bese inttructions do not apply to bow and bay windows and apply only to windows with a horizontal flat sill. Installation <br />such tha the window sill is higher than 35 feet above ground level or any window installation into a wall condition not <br />specific ly addressed in this document must be designed by an architect, structural engineer, or the manufacturer. <br /> <br /> <br />i <br /> <br />Degree of Task Complexity <br /> <br />Do-It-Yourself <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Contractor <br /> <br />Proper asse bly and installation of window/patio door products is critical to ensure proper operation and performance of our JELD- WEN family of products. <br />Because stru ture design, construction methods and products can vary, we strongly recommend consultation with an architect or structural engineer prior to <br />the: installati n of any JELD-WEN brand products.
