Window installation

Because the compressor is located on the

controls side of the unit (right side), this side will be heavier and more awkward to manipulate.

Inadequate support on control side of the unit

can result in personal injury and damage to your

unit and property. Therefore, it is recommended

to have someone assist you during the

installation of this unit.

1. Select the Best Location A. Your room air conditioner was designed to

fit easily into a single or double hung window.

However, since window designs vary, it may be necessary to make some modifications for safe

and proper installation.

E. Be certain the proper electrical outlet is within reach of the installation. All wiring should be in

accordance with local and national electrical codes.

F. Your unit was designed to evaporate

condensation under normal conditions. However,

under extreme humidity conditions, excess

condensation may cause base pan to overflow to the outside. The unit should be installed where

condensation run-off cannot drip on pedestrians or neighboring properties.

Awning

B. Make sure window and frame is structurally sound and free from dry and rotted wood.

C. For maximum efficiency, install the air conditioner on side of the house or building

which favors more shade than sunlight. If the

unit is in direct sunlight, it is advisable to provide an awning over the unit.

D. Provide sufficient clearance around the cabinet to allow for ample air circulation through

the unit. See (Fig.B). The rear of the unit should be outdoors and not in a garage nor inside of a

building. Keep unit as far away as possible from obstacles and obstructions and at least 30"

above the floor or ground. Curtains and other objects within a room should be prevented from blocking the air flow.
