• If storm window presents interference, fasten a
2"(51mm) wide wood strip to the inner window sill
across the full width of the sill. The wood strip should
be thick enough to raise the height of the window sill
so that the unit can be installed without interference
from the the storm window frame. See FIG. 10.

3/4"(19mm) higher than the storm window frame to
help condensation to drain properly to the outside.
• Install a second wood strip (approximately
6"(152mm) long by 11/2"(38mm)wide and same
thickness as first strip) in the center of the outer sill
flush against the back of the inner sill. (FIG. 10)
