INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION
Pick a location which will allow you to blow the cold
air into the area you want. Windows used for
installation must be strong enough to support the
weight of the air conditioner. Good installation with
special attention to the proper position of the unit
will lessen the chance that service will be needed.
When cooling more than one room, installation
location is very important since cold air will not turn
corners. To cool your rooms, cold air must be blown
from the air conditioner in a straight path.
