I am enlarging my basement window by cutting a larger openning on the
concrete foundation (not too large to make it unsafe structurally). My question is: is it necessary to install a wood frame using 2X6 ? or can I install the vinyl window directly onto the concrete opening, using shims, foam and insulation, etc ? What does one need a wood frame ? And what is the best way to anchor the window to the concrete ? nail gun, concrete screw, adhesive ? Thanks in advance for sharing your knowledge. |
