Pick the right wall. First, decide what room(s)
you want to cool. Then choose a wall that
will allow the air-conditioned air to flow
freely and directly into the room(s) you want
cooled. Remember, it’s difficult to move air
around corners. Choose a location that’s also
near an electrical outlet. (Refer to the ELEC-
TRICAL REQUIREMENT pages for type of
receptacle and wiring needed.) Do not use an
extension cord. (CAUTION: DO NOT LOCATE
AIR CONDITIONER WHERE PLASTIC
CABINET FRONT WILL BE EXPOSED TO
A HEAT SOURCE THAT RAISES THE
SURFACE TEMPERATURE IN EXCESS
OF 120” F.)
Choose the type of decorative molding you
want to use around the room side of the cabi-
net. Your choice affects the finish frame
alignment with the inside wall. When using a
wood, metal or plastic molding, the finish
frame should almost line up with the inside
wall. If the wall is plastered to the cabinet
and no molding is used, the finish frame must
be set into the wall by l/2” (see Figure 20 for
frame construction or Figure 21 for brick
veneer construction). Cut through two studs
for support.
CAUTION:
l
Be sure air conditioner does not fall during
installation.
l
Handle the air conditioner with care.
Watch out for the sharp metal fins on
the front and rear coils.
l
Do not use the collected water for drinking
purposes. It is not sanitary.
