3.7 CASEMENT WINDOW
INSTALLATION
• Installation procedure is the same as that described in
steps 1 through 11 and step 13 of the Horizontal
Sliding Window installation.
• If the window opening is wider than 15-3/4 inches you
will need to install a filler panel. Make this panel from
3/4 inch thick wood and run it the full length of the
window. Attach it securely to the window frame and
paint it to protect it from the weather.
• Since styles and sizes of casement windows vary
widely, it is advisable to have the air conditioner
installed by someone skilled in this type of installation.
