West Coast Materials

• Primarily wood windows in wood frame

• Coastal uses more aluminum

• Vast majority aluminum• Primarily stucco

application

Northwest Region

Southwest Region

West Coast Materials

• Very similar to eastern installation process

• Mainframe is left intact• New window is

inserted within opening• Exterior can be easily

finished with coil wrap or new trim

• Weather barrier issues are easily addressed

Northwest Region

West Coast Materials

• Thin frame aluminum• Customers expect max

glass for views• Original installation is

completed prior to stucco finish

• Exterior is often difficult to finish

• Weather barrier issues are difficult

• Jump frame installations

Installation

Installation – standard (East)

Brick Mould exterior is typical for central and eastern applications

Exterior sealing and aesthetics are easier

Installation – jumping the frame (West)

Most existing windows are aluminum with interior drywall/plaster returns, finished with wood trim and a wood or marble apron, or a combination of the two, as

pictured above

Why?

Aluminum windows on the west coast typically have stucco on exterior, and plaster or tile on interior. This makes removal of the window challenging at best.

The sashes are removed and the center mullion is cut (if applicable) and folded out of the unit, exposing fasteners on each side. The fasteners are then removed, leaving only the edge of the frame.

Per AAMA guidelines, it is required to liberally apply sealant to the entire

outer edge of the existing frame. This will help to prevent future leaking.

Please review installation instructions as well as AAMA guidelines prior to

installing the new window unit.

AMMA* Guidelines

The unit is installed within the perimeter of the existing frame by driving installation screws through piloted holes made into the metal frame. It is

recommended to fill pilot holes with sealant prior to driving screws.

Please note that no screws should be installed through the sill which is not recommended due to breach of watershed design.

The interior void between the existing frame and new window is filled with non-expanding foam to insulate the unit. Excess foam is either cleaned

immediately with solvent or allowed to harden and then scraped off.

Interior Finishing - Insulating

Use of the Simonton provided interior finishing strip, with “peel and stick” 3M adhesive can be used to address the gap between the new installed unit and the frame on the interior if no interior stop or drywall/stucco return is present.

Interior Finishing – Flat Trim

The stucco flange is applied to the accessory groove of the exterior frame after a bead of sealant is applied to the groove.

The stucco flange has ridges on its back to assist in scoring for sizing appropriately into the opening.

The stucco flange should be cut to allow minimal clearance tolerance once the window is installed. The small gap left on the entire perimeter should be then sealed with the appropriate sealant.

Exterior Finishing – Stucco Flange

The stucco flange can be cut to fit with snips, leaving a minimal gap which is then sealed.

This application can be modified to adapt to most installation needs.

Review

Minimal glass loss

Retains original narrow frame appearance

Adhesion is to original frame rather than to stucco – original seal untouched

Exterior sealant and insulation is extremely important

Stucco flange is used often

Review

• Different installation techniques require different products/applications

• Customer expectations lean toward maximum glass and visibility

• Design options and features often “begin” on the West Coast and travel toward the East

• Three main options• Wide frame, high options, high energy efficiency• Narrow frame, high options, moderate energy efficiency• Narrow frame, economically-driven, minimal options
