5. Secure the Whirlpool
Wood Construction
Drill a small pilot hole through the nailing-in flange at each stud. Add shims between the nailing-in
flange and the studs as needed to eliminate gaps.
Nail 1/4” (6 mm) thick furring strips to the studs to shim out to the edge of the nailing-in flange.
Use #6 large-head galvanized nails to secure the nailing-in flange to the studs.
Concrete Construction
NOTE: We recommend that the flange be secured to the wall for support.
Drill pilot holes through the nailing-in flange so they are about 16” (40.6 cm) apart.
Install concrete wall anchors to the wall at the pilot hole locations.
Secure the nailing-in flange to the wall anchors with screws.
