Window Installation

Because the compressor is located on the

controls side of the unit (right side), this side

will be heavier and more awkward to manipulate.

Inadequate support on control side of the unit

can result in personal injury and damage to your

unit and property. Therefore, it is recommended

to have someone assist you during the

installation of this unit.

E. Be certain the proper electrical outlet is within

reach of the installation. All wiring should be in

accordance with local and national electrical

codes.

F. Your unit was designed to evaporate

condensation under normal conditions. However,

under extreme humidity conditions, excess

condensation may cause base pan to overflow to

the outside. The unit should be installed where

condensation run-off cannot drip on pedestrians

or neighboring properties.

1. Select the Best Location

A. Your room air conditioner was designed to

fit easily into a single or double hung window.

However, since window designs vary, it may be

necessary to make some modifications for safe

and proper installation.

B. Make sure window and frame is structurally

sound and free from dry and rotted wood.

C. For maximum efficiency, install the air

conditioner on side of the house or building

which favors more shade than sunlight. If the

unit is in direct sunlight, it is advisable to provide

an awning over the unit.

D. Provide sufficient clearance around the

cabinet to allow for ample air circulation through

the unit. See (Fig.B). The rear of the unit should

be outdoors and not in a garage nor inside of a

building. Keep unit as far away as possible from

obstacles and obstructions and at least 30"

above the floor or ground. Curtains and other

objects within a room should be prevented from

blocking the air flow.

Wall Installation

NOTE: Consult local building codes prior to

installation, or a qualified carpenter.

Select Wall Location

This air conditioner has a slide-out chassis, so

it can be installed through an outside wall up to

12'' thick. IMPORTANT: Side louvers must

never be blocked.

NOTE: All parts needed for Wall Installation are

provided, except a wood frame, shims, and 10

wood screws (#10-1'' long minimum).

Select a wall surface that:

1. does not support major structural loads such

as the frame construction at ends of windows,

and under truss-bearing points, etc.

2. does not have plumbing or wiring inside.

3. is near existing electrical outlets, or where

another outlet can be installed.

4. faces, and is not blocked to the area to be

cooled.

5. allows unblocked airflow from rear sides and

end (outside) of installed air conditioner.

Prepare Wall

1. Prepare wall in frame construction (including

brick and stucco veneer). Working from

inside the room, find wall stud nearest the

center of area where air conditioner will be

installed (by sounding wall, or by

magnetically inding nails).

2. Cut or knock out a hole on each side of

center stud.

3. Measure between inside edges of every

other stud as shown in FIG. 1.

Carefully measure and cut an opening with the

following dimensions. See FIGS. 1 and 2.

WIDTH “X” = 26 '' (68cm) plus twice the

thickness of framing material used.

HEIGHT “Y” = 18 '' (47cm) plus twice the

thickness of framing material used.

4. Build a wooden sleeve with the INSIDE

dimensions of 26 '' (68cm) in width and

18 '' (47cm) in height. Frame depth

should be the same as wall thickness. Fill in

the space from the opening to the studs with

wood spacers, as shown in FIG.3.

5. Nail frame to spacers to studs with front

flush with drywall.

opening to assure no water can enter area

between inner and outer wall.

4. OPTIONAL: Support brackets may be used.

Installation brackets are recommended for

walls under 5'' thick. Refer to Step 4 of

Window Mounting for assembly of support

brackets. A wooden strip nailed to the

outside wall should be used in conjunction

with sill support angle brackets.

Prepare and Install Cabinet

1. Slide chassis from cabinet. Refer back to

Step 2 of Window Mounting.

2. Place cabinet into opening with bottom rail

resting firmly on bottom board of wooden

frame.

3. Position cabinet to achieve proper slope for

water removal. (See FIG. 1 below.)

5. Secure bottom rail to wood frame with two

large wood screws 1''(2.5 cm) long using the

two holes in the bottom of the channel

resting on frame. (See FIG. 2 following)

6. Screw or nail cabinet wooden frame using

shims if frame is oversized, to eliminate

distortion. Remember to maintain proper

slope as described in Step 3.

7. Install chassis into cabinet by following all

steps in Step 8 of Window Mounting.

RECOMENDED: Caulking and installation of

trim on interior wall may be done. You can

buy wood from your local lumber or hardware

supply. On the outside, caulk openings

around top and sides of cabinet, and all

sides of wood sleeve to the opening.

Masonry Construction

1. Cut or build a wall opening in the masonry

wall similar to the frame construction

(refer to Step 2 of Wall Installation for a

wall thickness greater than 8-1/2'').

2. Secure cabinet in place using masonry

nails, or the right masonry anchor screws.

(Another way to do this is to build an

in-between frame of 2x4's as shown in the

Step 2 Prepare Wall illustrations-but make

it double framed on either side, and install

between masonry wall opening and

cabinet. Frame must be securely anchored

to masonry wall opening) This way gives

very good louver clearance on either side

of cabinet.

3. Install a lintel to support masonry wall

above cabinet. Existing holes in cabinet

can be used and/or additional holes can

be drilled to fasten cabinet at various

positions. Be sure that side louver

clearance is in accordance with Step 1

above.

4. Install exterior cabinet support brackets

as shown in Step 2 of Wall Installation.

Caulk or flash if need, to provide a

wether-tight seal around top and sides of

cabinet.

5. To complete installation, apply wood trim

molding around room side projection of

cabinet.
