WALL SLEEVES
Weather Last™ Wall Sleeve
For the best performance and longest life, Carrier recommends genuine Carrier wall sleeves for all installations.
All Carrier wall sleeves are built with a pitch of 1/4 in. per foot; for
Important Sleeve Installation Considerations:
•All Carrier's sleeves are self pitching and must be mounted level in all directions. (Do not use rails to level sleeve.)
•The sleeve should be caulked on all sides, includ- ing both inside and outside the building.
•If more than 4 in. of wall sleeve projects into the room, an accessory subbase must be used for support.
•For all applications with an accessory subbase,
wall sleeve must extend 31/4 in. minimum into room and must be 31/4 in. minimum to 51/2 in. maximum above floor (including carpeting) to allow for proper fit of subbase.
•For applications where the wall sleeve is mounted flush to the exterior of the building (or recessed in), Carrier recommends a field- supplied drip edge be installed to prevent water infiltration into the building.
•Insulated wall sleeves should be considered for superior sound absorption, to reduce heat loss and to prevent sleeve sweating, a condition that can occur when the outside temperature is cold and the indoor conditions are warm and humid.
Polymer Wall Sleeves
Choose a polymer wall sleeve for maximum protec- tion and appearance.
All Carrier’s polymer wall sleeves are made from a molded polymer that is designed for strength and dura- bility. This material has excellent corrosion resistance and a flammability rating of
The sleeve surface is textured to prevent shine and hide scratches. The rib configuration on the sleeve bot- tom, allows easy chassis removal and aids in drainage. The locating holes in the side and top panels, allow easy fastening of the sleeve to wall openings. Refer to dimension drawings (pages 28 and 29) for typical wall installation and dimensions.
The sleeve's alpine mist color (a shade of beige) closely matches the front panel and blends in well with any inside or outside decor.
The polymer wall sleeve comes in both insulated (fac- tory installed) or
