WINDOW FOR
INSTALLATION
Inspect window track, sash, and sill
for its ability to support the weight of
air conditioner.
Measure width between window
moldings to ensure Instant Mount
window mounting kit will fit window
frame. Instant Mount models are
designed for windows from 25" to
35" (AAC081SRA), 26" to 36" ,
(AAC10, AAC12), 30" to 40"
(AAC14), 32" to 44" (AAC18,
AAC20, AAC24).
Instant Mount kit supplied with unit
is designed for mounting in most
double-hung windows without
storm windows. For installation in
window frame with storm window,
modify sill by adding wood strips to
inner and outer sills. This raises unit
and eliminates interference of storm
window frame.

SASH GASKET
Raise window sash. Measure width
of window sash, including portion
inside window track. Cut window
sash gasket to length and apply to
bottom of window sash. Cut and
apply window sill gasket.
Storm window installation
If storm window frame does not allow
adequate clearance below sill (1/2"
required), remove storm window
frame or create clearance by adding a
wood strip (at least 1 1/2" wide) along
entire width of sill. Fasten wood strip
to sill with at least three countersunk
wood screws (not supplied with kit).
This provides a smooth surface for
mounting air conditioner.
