Part 3 Execution Examination Verification of Condition: Before installation, verify openings are plumb, square and of proper dimensions as required in Section 01 71 00. Report frame defects or unsuitable conditions to the General contractor before proceeding. Acceptance of Condition: Beginning on installation confirms acceptance of existing conditions. Installation Comply with Section 01 73 00. Assemble and install window/door unit(s) according to instruction and reviewed manufacturer’s shop drawing. Install sealant and related backing materials at perimeter of unit or assembly in accordance with Section 07 92 00 Joint Sealants. Do not use expansive foam sealant. Install accessory items as required. Use finish nails to apply wood trim and mouldings. Field Quality Control Remove visible labels and adhesive residue according to instruction. manufacturer’s Unless otherwise specified, air leakage resistance tests shall be conducted at a uniform static pressure of 75 Pa (~1.57 psf). The maximum allowable rate of air leakage shall not exceed 2.3 L/sm2 (~0.45 cfm/ft2). Unless otherwise specified, water penetration resistance testing shall be conducted per AAMA 502 and ASTM E1105 at 2/3 of the fenestration products design pressure (DP) rating using cyclic static air pressure difference. Water penetration shall be defined in “Procedure B” – accordance with the test method(s) applied.
