7. WALL MOUNTING INFORMATION
1. Two holes for the supply and return air
openings must be cut through the wall as
detailed in Figure 4.
2. On wood-frame walls, the wall construction
must be strong and rigid enough to carry the
weight of the unit without transmitting any unit
vibration.
3. Concrete block walls must be thoroughly
inspected to insure that they are capable of
carrying the weight of the installed unit.
8. MOUNTING THE UNIT
1. These units are secured by wall mounting
brackets which secure the unit to the outside
wall surface at both sides. A bottom mounting
bracket is provided for ease of installation but
is not required.
CAUTION
If the bottom bracket is used, be certain the
bracket is secured to the outside wall surface
in a way sufficient to support the entire weight
of the unit during installation until side
mounting brackets are secured.
2. The WG42, WG48 and WG60 models are
suitable for 0 inch clearance on the installation
mounting wall and to the top. For all models the
supply air duct flange and the first 3 feet of
supply air duct require a minimum of 1 inch
clearance to combustible material. The WG24,
WG30 and WG36 models are suitable for 0 inch
clearance on the installation mounting wall, but
require 1 inch clearance to the top if combustible
material overhang projects above the unit. See
Figure 3 and 3A. If a combustible wall, use a
minimum of Figure 1 "A" dimension plus 2
inches and "B" dimension plus 2 inches. See
Figures 4 and 5 for details.
WARNING
Failure to provide the one inch clearance
between the supply duct and a combustible
surface for the first three feet of duct can result
in fire causing damage, injury or death.
3. Locate and mark lag bolt locations and bottom
mounting bracket location.
4. Mount bottom mounting bracket.
5. Hook top rain flashing under back bend of top.
Top rain flashing is shipped secured to the right
side of the back.
6. Position unit in opening and secure with 5/16
lag bolts; use 7/8 inch diameter flat washers on
the lag bolts. Use lag bolts long enough to
support the unit's weight when mounted to the
structure. This length may be dependant on the
type of construction.
7. Secure rain flashing to wall and caulk across
entire length of top. See Figure 3.
8. On side by side installations, maintain a
minimum of 20 inches clearance on right side
to allow access to control panel and burner
compartment, and to allow proper airflow to the
outdoor coil. Additional clearance may be
required to meet local or national codes.
