This air conditioner
is designed
as a slide-out
type chassis,
making it possible to install it through-the-wall
in both exist-
ing and new construction.
We recommend
that this type of
installation
be performed
with professional
assistance.
IMPORTANT:
This appliance
must be installed
according
to
all applicable
electrical
and building
codes and ordinances.
It is recommended
that you have help to install
your unit
and
that
you use proper
lifting
technique
to avoid
per-
sonal injury.
It is important
that you inspect
the condition
of the wall
where the air conditioner
will be installed.
Be sure the wall
can support
the weight
of the unit.
All cabinet
louvers
MUST BE on the outdoor
side of the
wall. DO NOT BLOCK
SIDE LOUVERS.
The cabinet
must
be installed
level from
side-to-side
and
with a downward
tilt from inside
to outside.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION
CORD: Make certain
a
proper
electrically
sized wall receptacle
is available
close to
the unit.
If not, make
arrangements
to install
one.
If the air conditioner
has a serial plate
rating
of 115 volts
and greater
than
7.5 amps it must have its own fuse or cir-
cuit breaker,
and no other
device
or unit
should
be oper-
ated on that fuse or circuit
breaker.
If the air conditioner
has a serial plate rating of 230 volts it
must have its own fuse or circuit breaker, and no other device
or unit should
be operated
on that fuse or circuit breaker.
1. First remove
the
Decorative
front
panel
and
chassis
from
the cabinet.
Remove
top
and
side retainer
bars
from the cabinet
(see page 2).
2. Determine
the size of the opening
for a wood frame by
adding
1/8"
to the width
and height
of the cabinet.
Measure
height
from
top of cabinet
to bottom
of bar.
Add this measurement
to the thickness
of wood used to
build
the frame.
This will determine
the size of wall
opening
needed.
Minimum
1" thick
lumber
is recom-
mended
when
building
the frame.
When
determining
finish frame thickness,
be sure not to cover side louvers
on the cabinet.
3. Install
the finished
frame
in the wall opening
square
and level, nail or screw it securely
to the wall and place
the cabinet
into the framed
wall opening.
4. Make
sure cabinet
projects
into
the roomside
of the
wall
1 1/4"
at the
top and
1 1/2"
at the bottom
to
ensure
proper
tilt and
access
to the anti-theft
screw,
then fasten
cabinet
to the frame by drilling
twelve
(12)
1" wood screws (not supplied)
through
the cabinet
and
into the frame
(Fig V & W).
If installation
is made
in a building
with
brick veneer
construction,
a steel angle lintel
must
be used to sup-
port the bricks
above
the cabinet
(Fig XL
5. After cabinet
is installed
caulk all openings,
inside
and
outside
between
finish
frame
and
cabinet
to prevent
moisture
from getting
to the interior
of the wall. Use of
flashing
(driprail)
will further
prevent
water from
drip-
ping inside
the wall.
6. Install
chassis into
cabinet
(see page 5).
