STEP 2 – Hang wall mount bracket
Using the paper template as a guide, locate two studs
behind screw hole locations in the template. It is
preferable to mount the hanging plate on studs. If two
studs are not available, utilize anchors appropriate for
the wall type with a combined weight capacity of at least
60 lbs. Standard wood screws and drywall anchors are
provided.
If you are installing the system by drilling a 3” hole
through the wall (Option 1), mark the location of the 3”
hole centerline on the wall as well
Note that the indoor unit is not centered on the bracket.
There is a center line on the paper template which
shows where the center of the indoor unit will be after
installation.
STEP 3 – Drill hole (Option 1) or mount
SimpleSill™ (Option 2).
Always follow all local and national codes when in-
stalling equipment. Obtain the help of trained, skilled
worker where necessary.
Option 1: Drill hole Through-the-Wall Installation
Drill 3” hole through the exterior wall.
NOTE: This should only be done by qualied install-
ers. Consult local and national codes before drilling any
holes. Mark the hole location on the indoor wall using
the template. (If locating unit above a window or door,
make sure the hole is above structural header)
Using a stud nder, scan area around desired hole loca-
tion for pipes, ducts, electrical conductors and struc-
tural elements. Relocate indoor unit mounting location
as necessary to avoid interference.
Using a 3” hole saw, drill hole through wall from inside
toward outside. When hole saw cuts through inside wall,
stop drilling. DO NOT drill the entire 3” hole from the
inside to prevent insulation and exterior wall damage.
Depending on the type of insulation, it might be neces-
sary to trim excess insulation prior to completing the
hole. Once insulation is removed, continue drilling from
inside until center drill bit of the saw just penetrates the
outside wall.
TIP: Tape a bag to the wall directly below hole location to
catch drill debris and dust or use a shop vacuum while
drilling.
Complete 3” hole from outside of the home by locating
center spiral drill bit penetration. Using the 3” hole saw
nish drilling through the wall from the outside of the
home.
Now that you have determined where the modules will be placed, it is time to install the Breeze air conditioning system.
