Construction Sleeve Installation
Typical installation for masonry walls is
shown in drawing below.
IMPORTANT: Depending on the size and
style of the louver chosen, you should
determine whether it can be installed before
or after the sleeve installation.
1. Clean the opening of all debris that may
interfere with installation.
2. Be sure the unit's center of gravity falls
within the load bearing surface of the
wall. If the center of gravity is not within
the load bearing surface, then additional
support such as wood, metal or concrete
must be provided in the field.
3. Place a thin pad of soft mortar on the
bottom of the opening.
IMPORTANT: Make certain the wall
sleeve protrudes into the room a
minimum of 1 1/8" beyond the finished
wall surface to accommodate the heat
section and room cabinet. Be sure
to recess the wall sleeve enough to
accommodate outside louver. This
recess is required for stamped louvers
and for architectural louvers. The louver
should be flush to exterior surface when
completed.
4. If a brickstop is employed, slide the
wall sleeve into the wall until the
brickstop contacts the exterior bricks.
If a brickstop is not used, slide wall
sleeve into the wall so it extends into the
room a minimum of 1 1/8" beyond the
finished interior wall surface. The wall
sleeve should also be recessed enough
to accommodate the outside louver.
5. After mortar has dried, remove the
