Good window installation should be kept in mind. Windows not installed correctly can become unwelcome avenues for water. It should be making sure to seal to seal the perimeter of the opening with sticky sheets of self-adhering waterproof membrane, strips of metal flashing, and judicious amounts of caulk. Any rain that gets by one of these layers will be stopped by another.


Taking measurements to install new windows is the first step of installation, and should be given important attention for the fitting of the window frame. Make sure the outside dimensions of the window are at least ¾-inch narrower and ½-inch shorter than the smallest width and height measurements, respectively. If they're not, you'll have to either reframe the opening or order a new window. To protect against water infiltration, self-adhering waterproof membrane are applied.  Then, windows are ready to install, making sure that it is perpendicular to the sides of the window frame. By then, windows are leveled with a 2-foot level placed on the windowsill to note its high side and a 4-foot level against the window jamb on that side, and shift the sill left or right until the level shows the jamb is plumb, then tacking a nail into the fin at the lower corner on the same side as the first nail. Additional adherences are applied to seal the perimeter, making it more sturdy; and sealing gaps with polyurethane foam to insulate against draft.
