All Skamotec 225 surfaces must be moistened with water before assembly. This is to
prevent the adhesive from drying out too quickly & adhering incorrectly
Always maintain a minimum of 1/8” clearance from window frame. Always maintain a
minimum of 1/8"clearance from the Wall Standoff (framing the glass panel) and 2" from all other
surfaces. See Lucius installation manual for more details and all of the clearance requirements.
