Cutting the Hole for the WhisperKOOL Unit

Tools Needed
Hammer
Locate the desired installation location. Using a stud finder, locate two adjacent studs in the walls, and mark them
with vertical lines.
Mark the horizontal lines with a level
• Using a saw, cut along the uppermost horizontal line
until your saw reaches the stud. Turn the saw around,
inserting it into the cut you have just made, and cut
toward the opposite stud so that you have a clean
horizontal cut between the two studs. Be careful not
to cut into the studs themselves. Now make the
second horizontal cut from stud to stud on the line 16
inches below the first cut (22.75" for the 6000 and
8000 models).
