Flashing Application Instructions for Windows

Step Six:

Install pre-cut flashing

over the window head

flange by removing release

paper, exposing the adhe-

sive. Roll firmly into place.

Mechanically fasten head

flashing at top outermost

corners, as necessary.

Step Seven:

Remove temporary secure-

ment of weather-resistive

barrier above header. Fold

over head flashing. Seal

with weather-resistive

barrier seam tape.

Step Eight:

Flashing should be long

enough to direct water

over the nailing flange of

the last course of siding

(see Detail VCRDET-107).

Trim excess flashing that

hangs below the nailing

flange.

Discard in appropriate

manner.

Note: These same steps

can be used for other

accessory openings

(i.e. under doors,

electrical outlets).

Install siding and flashing below window as per siding

manufacturer‘s or Vinyl Siding Institute recommendations.
