Casement Window Installation
This air conditioner is designed to fit into most casement type windows. As shipped from factory, unit will fit into a minimum window opening 15 1/2” wide and 21” high. The preferred method of installation is through a closed or stationary window. Installation in an open window frame is also possible where open window can be secured to outside of building or removed completely.
1.Closed or Stationary Window: Install unit in stationary sash to avoid crank handles or window latches. If unit is to be installed in or next to a movable sash, it may be necessary to remove catch, handle or both. Remove crank handle and secure window in closed position. Remove glass panes and separating strips to a height sufficient to mount unit.
2.Open Window Frame: Remove crank mechanism and catch handles. Fold window sash back against exterior wall of building and secure, or remove completely where possible.
3.A filler panel will be required at side of unit when installed in windows having width greater than 15 1/2”. Filler panel should be made from 3/4” thick wood securely anchored to one side of opening so that 15 1/2” wide opening is provided. Filler panel should run full length of window. Paint to suit.
4.Install unit in same manner as described for sliding windows.
Installation in Wood Sliding or Wood Casement Windows
1.For wood frame casement windows, it is necessary to construct a frame, using at least 1” thick wood with a 15 1/2” wide opening.
2.Paint frame and fasten it securely, sealing it into window opening.
3.Install unit into frame following procedures for metal sliding and casement windows.
These installations are also typical, and since styles and sizes of casement windows vary widely, it is advisable to have unit installed by someone skilled in this type of installation. The dealer selling these units can recommend or supply qualified people to install your new unit.
