PROTECTING ANDERSON CASEMENT WINDOWS<br />

Two methods for protecting Anderson casement windows are shown here. Figure 1<br />
shows the standard method. Figure 2 shows the method used if ventilation is<br />
required. It is important to note that both methods require the magnet be placed<br />
in the sash on the step closest to the inside of the window.<br />
Important: Anderson recommends against mounting switches in sills due to<br />
possible damage from water. If you must drill into the sill, make sure you provide a<br />
solid, tight seal using RTV compound.<br />
Install magnet in sash on the step closest to the inside. Drill hole 1/4" (0.635 cm)<br />
diameter x 1-1/4" (3.175 cm) deep. This step has a cross section of about 1/2" x 1/2"<br />
(1.27 cm x 1.27 cm) and will hold the 1/4" diameter magnet by centering the hole<br />
in the section.<br />
Drill hole for switch opposite magnet. Angle this hole back toward inside of wall<br />
about 15˚.<br />
Install switch and test.<br />
Cover ends of switch and magnet with silicone rubber to protect from weather.<br />
