WALL INSTALLATION

To install the room air conditioner in the wall, perform the following procedure:

1.Remove air conditioner from shipping box. Do not install window installation parts.

2.Determine the location for air conditioner. Make sure there is adequate clearance on the inside and outside of the wall. Ensure that the power cord will reach the available socket without an extension cord. Air conditioner can be installed in walls up to 7” thick. Side louvers must never be blocked. Select a wall surface that:

SDoes not support major structural loads such as the frame construction at ends of windows and under truss-bearing points

SDoes not have plumbing or wiring routed inside

SIs near existing electrical outlets or near where a new outlet can be installed

SFaces the area to be cooled and is not blocked by obstructions

SAllows unblocked airflow from rear (outside) of installed air conditioner

3.The following parts will need to be provided by the installer:

Swood frame

Swood shims

Swood screws (no. 10, 1” long)

4.Working from the inside of the room, find a wall stud nearest the center of the area where the air conditioner will be installed. This can be determined by sounding walls or using a stud finder.

5.Cut or knock out a hole on each side of the center stud. (See Fig. 22.)

IMPORTANT: Read entire instructions before cutting hole in wall.

6.Measure between the inside edges of every other stud as shown in Fig. 22

7.Follow all local building codes when building and installing frame. Build a wooden frame that will be placed around the unit in the wall. The frame will reinforce the hole in the wall where the air conditioner is installed and is used to secure the air conditioner to the wall. The depth of the frame should approximately match the depth of the wall. The thickness of the frame will need to be added to the dimensions to determine the size of the hole in the wall.

IMPORTANT: Be sure to measure air conditioner to check size before constructing frame.

For example, if using 3/4” thick wood for the frame, the hole would need to be: 20-1/2” + 3/4” + 3/4” = 22” wide.

IMPORTANT: If thickness of the wall covers top and side vents of the air conditioner when it is installed, the outer portion of the wall opening must be widened. The top and side vents must be clear and uncovered.

8.After the frame has been constructed, check to make sure that the air conditioner fits correctly inside it. If the frame is too tight or too loose, adjust the size or re-construct.

9.Measure the outer dimensions of the frame and use those dimensions to cut the hole in the wall. Make sure the hole is level or condensate will not drain properly.

10.Install wooden frame into hole in wall. Make sure frame is properly secured. Fill in the space between the frame and the studs with wood shims (spacers). Nails spacers to studs. If required, provide studs around entire frame to reinforce stability of wall (see Fig. 24).
