WALL MOUNTING INFORMATION
1. Two holes for the supply and return air openings must
be cut through the wall as shown in Figure 3.
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.
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.
2. The unit itself is suitable for 0 inch clearance, but the
supply air duct flange and the first 3 feet of supply air
duct require a minimum of 1/4 inch clearance to
combustible material. If a combustible wall use a
minimum of 30-1/2" x 10-1/2" dimensions for sizing.
However it is generally recommended that a 1 inch
clearance is used for ease of installation and maintaining
the required clearance to combustible material. The
supply air opening would then be 32" x 12". See
Figures 3 and 4 for details.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Failure to provide the 1/4 inch clearance
between the supply duct and a combustible
surface for the first 3 feet of duct can result in
fire causing damage, injury or death.
3. Locate and mark lag bolt locations and bottom
mounting bracket location. See Figure 3.
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.
7. Secure rain flashing to wall and caulk across entire
length of top. See Figure 3.
8. For additional mounting rigidity, the return air and
supply air frames or collars can be drilled and screwed
or welded to the structural wall itself (depending upon
wall construction). Be sure to observe required
clearance if combustible wall.
9. On side by side installations, maintain a minimum of
20 inches clearance on right side to allow access to
control panel and heat strips, and to allow proper
airflow to the outdoor coil. Additional clearance may be
required to meet local or national codes.
