anderson window 400 replacement windows

12 years ago

hi,
i am currently installing Anderson 400 replacements windows. The kit comes with 3 exterior trim stop covers ( top and 2 sides) that cover up the space between the new window the the exterior window trim. does anyone know why their wouldn't be one for the bottom and have suggestions on what to do. the space is probably around 1 inch wide. I will caulk the bottom but it seems very unfinished with only 3 covers

Most Andersen replacements are figuring on a stool of some sort. You can make your own stool of cover that with a piece of similar trim as the top and sides.

That appears to be the exterior of the window and if I am correct I see some potential rot/water damage. Are you replacing that before installing the new windows? Also as far as "replacements" and a possible 4th pc for the sill, are you speaing of the exterior? I believe wow is speaking about interior "stool" but I may be mistaken.
