Step 5) Sealing Vertical Mullions

Prior to installing an intermediate vertical mullion or perimeter jamb, apply silicone type
sealant to the vertical mullion in the location shown in Figure 47 below at the Interior

joints only. Apply sealant where indicated 6-8 inches up from the bottom of the vertical
joints. Apply enough sealant so when the filler or opposite mullion half is snapped, it

will create a good seal. Wipe off excess sealant from the exposed Interior of the frame.
This sealant practice should be followed for all variations of vertical mullions including

corners and perimeter jambs, except where a perimeter mullion uses vinyl filler. See
Figures 48 through 54.
