If your model includes an adjustable expander, slide the expander 
onto the bottom of the window unit. (The bottom mounting flange 
does not have round pre-punched installation holes). 
Apply caulk to the head (top) and jambs (sides) of the existing 
window where the storm window will be mounted. To allow for 
proper drainage, DO NOT caulk the sill.
Set the storm window in place, ensuring it is square, centered in 
the opening and that the frame does not bow toward or away from 
the center of the window. Predrill a 3/32” pilot hole through each of 
the holes in the mounting flange, and secure window with the 
provided screws.
Adjust the expander (if applicable) so that it makes even contact 
across the window sill.
Position the storm window over the opening to check for a proper 
fit. Use caution when handling the window to ensure the glass 
panes stay within the frame.
If your storm window is too large, the mounting flange can be 
trimmed. Determine how much of the flange to remove. Using a 
utility knife, score the mounting flange along the appropriate grove. 
Bend the flange back and forth with pliers until it breaks off.
