Anderson Window Flanges?
I am currently working on a home that is to have 8″ thick exterior walls. The architect specified Anderson vinyl clad exterior, double hung wood windows. They are to be installed such that, rather than being surface mounted to the exterior with flanges, will be set in so as to create a return on the exterior. The exterior treatment of the building will be a stucco type system.
My questions are: Don’t all residential type Anderson windows come with mounting flanges on them? Can the flanges be cut off and then the window mounted via attachment through the through the jambs?
Thanks for your thoughts.
