Installation
How to Install the Unit
Window Requirements
1. To prevent vibration and noise, make sure the unit
is installed securely and firmly
2. Install the unit where the sunlight does not shine
directly on the unit.
3. The outside of the cabinet must extend outward for
at least 11" and there should be no obstacles, such
as a fence or wall, within 20" from the back of the
cabinet because it will prevent heat radiation of the
condenser.
Restriction of outside air will greatly reduce the
cooling efficiency of the air conditioner.
All side louvers of the cabinet must remain exposed to the outside of the structure.
4. Install the unit a little slanted so the back is slightly lower than the front(about 1 /
2
").
This will force condensed water to flow to the outside.
5. Install the unit with the bottom about 30"~60" above the floor level.
All supporting parts should be secured to firm wood,
masonry, or metal.
This unit is designed for installation in standard double hung
windows with actual opening widths from 22" to 36".
The top and bottom window sash must open sufficiently to
allow a clear vertical opening of 1
4" from the bottom of the
upper sash to the window stool.
