If your installation cannot be performed in accordance with these instructions contact your dealer.
The unit must be installed in the upright position and is not designed to have duct work on either the warm air or cold
air sides. Do not drill any holes into the cooling unit. It may damage the unit, promotes rust, and will void the warranty.
Do not install the unit so that its removal will be difficult or impossible. It may be necessary to periodically remove the
unit to clean the condenser coil.
F Select a place to mount the unit where the warm air flow from the warm air exhaust is unobstructed for a minimum
of 3 feet. The area into which the unit exhausts must be well ventilated. If not, the unit will be unable to reject the
excessive moisture and heat and will not operate satisfactorily. Inappropriate locations for the warm air exhaust
includes unventilated laundry rooms, closets, bathrooms, garages, crawl spaces, attics and humid basements.
F
Additionally, cold air flowing from the upper cold side grille must remain unobstructed for 3 feet. It is preferred
that the unit be mounted near the ceiling and as close to equal distance from each end of the wall as possible. If
necessary, these units may be mounted near the floor if the upper grille is interchanged with the blank off plate so
that the cold air will be directed up (See Fig. 1). There should be nothing above the unit to block air flow. Remove
the insulation under the blank off plate with a knife. Make sure that the warm air exhaust grille can be properly
attached to the unit (see fig. 3).
F
Make a hole through the wall as illustrated in Fig. 2. The dimensions of the hole should be approximately 1/4 inch
larger than the width and height given in the specifications. If the unit is to be installed above floor level, construct a
shelf as shown in Fig. 3. This shelf must be capable of supporting the weight indicated in the specifications. NOTE:
Insulation placed between the unit and the shelf will reduce additional noise and help reduce condensate from
forming on the underside of the unit.
F
Cut a hole in the shelve that corresponds to the Pull down drain tube's location on the underside of the unit for easy
access. Refer to section "CONDENSATE DRAIN TUBE".
F
Place the unit through the opening with the warm air exhaust side, flush to the outside of the wall (see fig. 3).
Attach the warm air exhaust grille to the unit and to the wall with screws supplied with grille. Note: the unit may be
installed with the cold side flush to the inside wall, however, 2 provisions must be made. First, insure the warm air
exhaust grille will be installed. Second, insulate and vapor barrier the framed opening to prevent any wall moisture
