(Continued from here)
More windows screwed into place.
The second crew arrives in the black truck, consisting of 4 guys.
They fill in the gaps between the new windows and the opening (what is this called?) with spray expanding foam.
Here is what they used to cover up the foam around the windows. It's called "coil wrap" which had us totally confused when we signed up for this. I thought coil meant twirled metal like a spring or a slinky. And felt too silly to ask such a naive question. Anyway, I get it now, it's just a big sheet of aluminum that comes in a giant coil.
The older crew guy (that dad I believe) took the measurements for the coil wrap.
Behold! Our old windows. Sayonara suckers.
Trimming the coil wrap. Some cool contraption attached to the side of the truck. I learned that this is not sold to the public, only to contractors. So glad we did NOT DIY this!
Installing coil wrap. This is by far, the most time consuming aspect of the entire installtion.
