Installing new windows.

In order to install windows properly, one should observe a few simple rules:

1. Carefully make the measurements of the window opening considering installation clearances.
2. Align and clean the window opening prior to installation. The remains of the old window should be removed completely and disadvantages of the wall are aligned. 
3. Appropriate sealing joints between wall and window frame with foam to ensure adequate acoustic and thermal insulation.
4. After installation and closing of the window sashes, sealing should be made and  windows must be kept closed for two days.

After window installation is finished, start finishing slopes. While installation, the window remains in protective film, which is removed before start of finishing slopes. The remnants of the foam needs to be removed. 

To decorate the slopes from inside, you can use plaster or drywall, on the outside you should use more resistant materials. Fill gaps with silicone sealant. 

The last step is the adjustment of accessories. Windows should open easily and without effort, otherwise, the structural integrity may be compromised, so it is better that this stage was also conducted by a specialist.
