it from draining properly. To adjust for this, attach
a piece of wood to the sill.

WIDTH: 2"
LENGTH: Long enough to fit inside the window
frame.
THICKNESS: To determine the thickness, place a
piece of wood on the sill to make it 1/2" higher
than the top of the storm window frame or the
vinyl frame.

by the installer.
