Baffles must come in
contact with the out-
door louver.
• Make sure baffles are
directed inward toward
the center of coil.
Secure baffles tightly
to the condenser coil
using the screws pro
-
vided. (Figure A6)
5. Apply 1” x 1” open cell foam strips around supply air
duct to ensure that all the conditioned air is delivered
into the room. Failure to do so results in recirculation of
the conditioned air around the wall sleeve and through
the unit causing the unit to short cycle, thus raising
operating costs through improper heating and cooling
(Figure A6).
