TonyView Installation Overview
Key Requirements
- Structural support: Substrates, headers, and framing must be level, plumb, and designed to carry loads. TonyView is not a shear element.
- Water-managed walls only: TonyView must be installed in a properly water-managed wall system. Barrier systems (such as EIFS) require additional approved moisture control.
- Professional installation recommended: Improper installation may result in structural failure, water intrusion, or warranty voidance.
Installation Summary
- Prepare and level the substrate; solid-block the corner framing.
- Headers must meet at the corner with proper alignment (typically a 45° miter).
- Install the stainless steel sill shoe over sealant.
- Set the TonyView unit, shim as required, and secure to the structural brackets and sill.
- Gradually transfer load from temporary shoring to the TonyView unit while maintaining plumb and level.
- Fully tighten all fasteners only after final alignment is confirmed.
Waterproofing (Critical for Warranty)
- Install sill pan flashing first, then work upward.
- Use self-adhered membrane (SAM) to fully integrate TonyView with the building’s weather barrier.
- Flash vertical posts and head per standard high-performance window practices.
- Complete counterflashing and top flashing to direct water away from the system.
Final Notes
- Protect the unit during construction.
- Verify all fasteners and seals before removing bracing.
- Follow approved sealants, flashing methods, and detailing exactly as shown in the full guide.
