NOTE: Figure 19 shows a window with casing but the flashing detail applies to any clad window product.
For installations in typical wood frame construction or brick veneer (non recessed masonry openings), figure 19
shows the proper flashing detail in shingle style fashion. Once the exterior finish such as siding or brick veneer is
installed, a bead of sealant should be applied between the finish and the window/window casing along the sides and
approximately 1--2
(25--51) in from the ends at the head jamb. Use a backer rod when necessary.
