Polymer roofs are designed to be
installed with auxiliary casing provided by window
manufacturer or others(on some windows this may
already be part of the window).See illustration below.
This casing is sometimes no more than a piece of 1”x1”
pine to fill in the space between the platform or head
board and the outer edge of the window and is used to
provide fastening for the roof. Sometimes this piece
could be a little wider to better fill in the space
between the window and the roof. 2, Caulk surface of flashing and other surfaces of
roof where it meets building and window. 3, Attach roof to auxiliary casing with the screws
provided. 4, After the roof has been attached to the window
use galvanized or stainless steel roofing nails to attach the roof
flashing to the building. Use the nail holes provided or drill at least
3/16” holes. Do not nail tight: leave room for expansion. 5, Install the siding: do not nail through the
flashing flange. 6, No other finishing is recommended and may void
warranty. 7, Care must be taken to insure that windows are
installed in accordance with manufacturers instructions including
support by cables or knee brackets to keep windows from sagging.
