Window Flashing and Tape Application

flashing make sure all of our windows are not seeping any water in now I've done a lot of research on this and it kind of does not make sense because if you follow the hierarchy of like Roofing everything has to trickle down and here doesn't make sense to me but what they are saying is here's the steps you have to first use when your window is on raw wood use a waterproofing flashing to run it over this ledge where the nails are and then to the house after that's on you put your drip edge on on top we can't put one here because it's so high up but on the rest of the windows we can and then after that you put your house wrap over that kind of doesn't make sense to me but rules of rules and we're here to follow them [Music] all right so here's the reason why it kind of didn't make sense to me well the drip edge goes on top of this flashing which I kind of get it and I kind of don't because there's still Nails on top of it maybe this stuff will prevent it from leaking through but the second reason it didn't make sense is I'd imagine this tape would be connected to the house wrap and attached to the metal here that makes sense in my head but that's not the order sequence they want us to go by so here we are [Music] if you do happen to run out of tape like I have here in a few radius spots you gotta apply the next piece kind of like you would with roofing shingles right bottom up so water can trickle down if it ever does get in there that's why the bottom tape goes on first and then the side piece is so it could trickle down over it once you learn Roofing I guess you learn flashing it's been a lot easier if I did the windows before putting the Tyvek you got to use the Noggin I didn't do it but you should you only got one might as well use it before it goes away see this is what I mean I would imagine this would be covering everything because yes everything is dripping off the pan not going on the wood with the
