ABSTRACT:
A water-proof window flange is of an elongated, extruded shape. In an end view, it includes a vertical first member, a horizontal second member extending forwards orthogonally from an intermediate position on the vertical member, and a third member extending backwards from a forward end of the horizontal second member. An inner end of the third member is positioned below and forward of a lower end of the first member. The top end of the vertical first member is for being positioned between a siding and subsiding of a wall. The bottom end of the vertical first member is for being positioned on top of a window frame. The inner end of the third member is for being positioned in front of the window frame, and below a top edge of the window frame. The top of the vertical first member is positioned far above the lower edge of the siding to prevent rain water from seeping around the top of the window flange. The lower end of the third member is positioned below the top front edge of the window frame to prevent rain water from seeping under the window flange and around the top of the window frame.
