11.Caulk joints in wood frame as required. If wall thickness is 7” or more, add aluminum flashing over bottom of frame opening to ensure no water can enter area between inner and outer wall.

12.Remove the chassis from the unit cabinet.

!CAUTION

PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in personal injury.

Be careful when handling chassis. Sharp edges on coil fins can cause personal injury.

13.Slide the empty cabinet into the wall opening and into wooden frame. Approximately 2-1/2“ of the cabinet should be in the room. The rest of the cabinet should be positioned through and outside the wall. (See Fig. 25.) Maintain proper slope for condensate drain operation. Bottom rail should be resting firmly on bottom board of wooden frame.

14.Secure bottom rail to wood frame with two large wood screws (1” long) using the two holes in the bottom of the channel. (See Fig. 26.)

15.There are screw holes in the cabinet (4 each side, 4 top) which are used to secure the cabinet to the wooden frame. With the cabinet in its final position, drill holes in the wooden frame using the screw holes in the cabinet as a guide. After the holes have been drilled, secure the cabinet to the wooden frame using field-supplied screws. See Fig. 27.

16.Caulk around wood frame and wall opening on outside wall for a water-tight seal.

17.Optional caulking between the cabinet and the wooden frame may be done on inside wall. Caulking provides an air seal around the cabinet. Decorative wood trim may be added to provide a more pleasing appearance.

18.Lift chassis and carefully slide it into the cabinet. Be sure that it is firmly seated towards the rear of the cabinet.

!CAUTION

PERSONAL INJURY/UNIT OPERATION HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in personal injury and/or damage to unit.

Do not push on the controls or the coil when installing chassis. Personal injury and/or unit damage could result.

19.Install the front panel

20.Plug in the unit.

MASONRY CONSTRUCTION

The air conditioner is installed the same way as the Wall Installation section with a few exceptions. Follow all local and national building codes.

The cabinet can be secured to the masonry by using masonry nail or masonry anchor screws.

Another installation technique would be to construct a frame of

2 x 4s and install the frame between the wall opening and the cabinet. The frame must be securely anchored to the masonry wall opening.

Use a lintel to support masonry above wall opening. Install exterior cabinet support brackets.
