Styrofoam
insulation in the
headers provides
a radiant barrier.

Tyvek
is wrapped into the
window opening and stapled
back against the interior
studs. Note the top
piece of Tyvek is not
stapled back but cut
off level with the top
frame of the window.
This is to prevent wicking
of water into the home. |

After
Window Wrap is placed
along the entire sill
of the window, a bead
of silicone caulk
is used to help make
a permanent gasket
between the window
and flashing material.
