STORM WINDOW APPLICATIONS
If the window is blocked by a storm window and the storm
window cannot be removed, a mounting board (field provided)
will need to be added to the window sash. The air conditioner
needs to be pitched downward to the back in order for condensate
to drain properly.
The frame of the storm window (or any other obstruction) must be
at least 1/2“. lower than the window sill. If the storm window
frame is not at least 1/2“. below the window sill, then a mounting
board will need to be added to raise the height of the window sill
(see Fig. 21). The board will need to be provided and cut by the
installer .
1. The wood mounting board should be a minimum of 1-- 1/2”
wide and should run the length of the window. The
thickness of the mounting board is dependent on the height
of the storm window frame. The mounting board should
raise the front of the air conditioner high enough so that the
unit will be pitched downward at least 5/8” when the back
of the unit is resting on the storm window frame. See Fig.
21.
2. Cut the wood mounting board to fit the window.
3. Install the wood mounting board on the window using 2
field--provided nails or screws.
4. Drain holes or slots in storm window frame must not be
caulked or painted shut. Holes are needed to drain rain
water and condensate. Ensure that trapped water can drain
out.
