Installation of the Cabinet

Prepare the hole in the wall so that the bottom
of the cabinet is well supported, the top has
minimum clearace and the air inlet louveres
have clearance as shown. Holes from the
outside through to the cavity should be sealed.
The cabinet should slope down towards the
rear by about 10~15 mm to allow water formed
during operation to drain.

Ensure the foam seals are not damaged.
Flash, seal or fill gaps around the inside and
outside to provide satisfactory appearance
and protection against the weather, insects
and rodents.
