Ensure accurate measurements and proper preparation of the window opening, including removing any old caulk or debris. Use shims to achieve a level installation and apply a generous bead of exterior-grade caulk around the window frame to prevent water infiltration. Insulate gaps with expanding foam insulation and finish with interior trim for a polished look. Don't forget to follow manufacturer instructions and safety precautions throughout the process! 🛠️🪟
