,
Drill two 3/16" holes through each side of the sleeve
approximately 4" from top and 4" from bottom of sleeve.
Screw four #10 x 1" screws (included) or appropriate
fasteners for your installation, through the holes in the sides
of the wall sleeve.
Apply sealant around the wall sleeve where it projects
through the inside and outside wall surfaces. Apply the
sealant to the screw heads or the tops of the fasteners used
in Step #3.
NOTE: When sealing the sleeve on the outside of the
building, be careful NOT to let the sealant block the two
condensate drain holes or the four overflow slots at the
bottom flange of the sleeve.
If the chassis and exterior grille are to be installed later, leave
the weatherboard and center support in place, otherwise
remove and dispose of them.
Provide a support lintel if the wall sleeve is installed in a
concrete or masonry wall. (See Figure 7.)
