Through-the-wall Installation Instructions

...for slide out chassis model only.

1l Pick the right wall. First, decide what room(s) you want to cool. Then choose a wall that

will allow the air-conditioned air to flow freely and directly into the room(s) you want cooled. Remember, it’s difficult to move air around corners. Choose a location that’s also near an electrical outlet. (Refer to the ELEC-

TRICAL REQUIREMENT pages for type of receptacle and wiring needed.) Do not use an extension cord. (CAUTION: DO NOT LOCATE

AIR CONDITIONER WHERE PLASTIC CABINET FRONT WILL BE EXPOSED TO A HEAT SOURCE THAT RAISES THE

SURFACE TEMPERATURE IN EXCESS OF 120” F.)

2l Choose the type of decorative molding you want to use around the room side of the cabi- net. Your choice affects the finish frame alignment with the inside wall. When using a wood, metal or plastic molding, the finish frame should almost line up with the inside wall. If the wall is plastered to the cabinet and no molding is used, the finish frame must be set into the wall by l/2” (see Figure 20 for

frame construction or Figure 21 for brick

veneer construction). Cut through two studs for support.
