RECOGNIZE THIS SYMBOL AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION.

ATTENTION INSTALLING PERSONNEL

As a professional installer you have an obligation to know the product better than the customer. This includes all safety precautions and related items.

Prior to actual installation, thoroughly familiarize yourself with this Instruction Manual. Pay special attention to all safety warnings. Often during installation or repair, it is possible to place yourself in a position which is more hazardous than when the unit is in operation.

Remember, it is your responsibility to install the product safely and to know it well enough to be able to instruct a customer in its safe use.

Safety is a matter of common sense...a matter of thinking before acting. Most dealers have a list of specific good safety practices...follow them.

The precautions listed in this Installation Manual are intended as supplemental to existing practices. However, if there is a direct conflict between existing practices and the content of this manual, the precautions listed here take precedence.

Preinstallation Considerations

Before proceeding with the sleeve installation, ensure the following guidelines for locating the wall opening and sleeve are met:

The wall opening must be the correct size. See Figure 1 for wall sleeve dimensions and Figure 3 for minimum wall opening size.

The wall sleeve must be installed with a 5” minimum clearance to the floor and 1 1/2” to adjacent walls. See Figure 2 for minimum projections of the sleeve into and out of the room.

If installed in a concrete or masonry wall, a lintel must be provided in the wall opening for support. Do not use the wall sleeve as a lintel. If the wall is less than 8” thick or of hollow construction, an alternate means of support for the sleeve must be provided. See Figure 4 for a typical lintel construction.
