Install the FWB0 at the ends of the intermediate horizontals only. It is not required at
heads or sills. Use silicone type sealant to adhere the FWB0 on the intermediate
horizontal. Ensure that the thermal cavity is filled with sealant. Place FWB0 onto the top
of the intermediate horizontal glazing pocket, and smooth any excess sealant so water will
flow easily over the water deflector. See typical installation of the FWB0 in figures 40
through 42 below. The FWB0 will extend over the edge of the glass unit to deflect any
water from getting on the top of the unit below.

Prior to applying sealant to the required areas, clean the area with Isopropyl Alcohol and a clean towel
that will not leave towel materials behind. Wipe off material with a sufficiently dampened towel to remove
all dust, oil, and cutting fluids from the required areas. Allow to air dry before applying any sealant.
