2. Outline where the sill pan sits in the opening. Mark a line along the
back and front edges of the sill pan. Mark a line along the top edge
of both side walls of the sill pan.
JELD-WEN recommends the use of sill pans based on
a best-build practice. They are suggested for use in
step-down landings and continuous slab conditions.

1. Cut a piece of sheet material to the length shown.
2. Lightly crease folding lines 1/2" in from the two short sides and one
long side.
3. Measure the width of the sill and add 9/16".
4. Take this distance from the back edge and lightly crease a folding line
across the sheet material.
5. For step-down landings, cut 1/2" in at this line on both sides of the
sheetmaterial.
6. For continuous slab, cut across the folding line.
7. Fold the three back sides up to make a 3-sided box, and, for step-
down landings, fold the front ap down.

3. Apply a continuous layer of liquid applied ashing, or three 3/8"
beads of sealant, along the entire width of the opening and up both
side walls of the opening, as outlined by the previous lines.
4. Place the sill pan in the rough opening. Firmly press the sill pan into
the liquid applied ashing or sealant with a J-roller. NOTE: If using a
metal sill pan and setting the pan into sealant, ensure to apply a piece
of self-adhered ashing to the complete underside of the pan to
prevent possiblecorrosion.
Sill Pan Flashing
1. Cut a piece of self-adhered ashing the length of the sill and apply
over the sill pan as shown. The bottom of the sill pan should be
covered entirely by the self-adhered ashing. For step-down landings,
fold ashing down as shown. For continuous slabs, trim ush with the
nishedopening.

(remove and replace if necessary).
3. Seal back corners of sill pan with sealant.
4. Apply a generous color-matched sealant bead (typically a
polyurethane or silicone sealant that will match the exterior color of
the building) above the side walls of the sill pan.
5. Tool each sealant bead down into the bottom of the pan. Ensure
there are no gaps. Apply more sealant if necessary.
