Accessory Retrofit Kit for GE
Sleeve
Part No.: GE-RETROFIT-KIT
This kit contains the items that allow owners to install
a 52S chassis into a plastic or metal GE sleeve so that
there is no air leakage or damage to 52S unit compo-
nents. The Retrofit Kit is an accessory and must be
ordered separately from the factory.
To retrofit to a plastic GE sleeve, it is important to
remove the rear bottom seal from the sleeve. To retro-
fit to a metal GE sleeve, a metal rail extension bracket
must be mounted to the bottom of the sleeve.
Both metal and plastic sleeves require placing two
foam baffles (provided in the Retrofit Kit) on the out-
door condenser coil. These baffles must be installed to
prevent air recirculation.

Refer to the installation instructions for complete
installation procedures.
IMPORTANT: The foam baffles must make a good
seal between the grille and outdoor coil. Improper
installation of the foam baffles or neglecting to
install them can result in condenser (outdoor) air
recirculation. This will degrade the unit's perfor-
mance and shorten product life. Do not ignore this
step. Carrier does not assume responsibility for costs
or damages resulting from misapplication of foam
baffles.
