Air Conditioner

User's Manual

Insert the unit with the seal into the sleeve pushing it all the way to the rear, making sure the seals are against the rear grille. The seals are necessary to reduce recirculation of hot air into the intakes which will reduce system performance. An alternative is to purchase a 3/4" diamond cut aluminum grille and cut it to fit inside the sleeve. Secure it with screws. Attach the dual intake grill directly to the back of the unit. Slide the entire unit into the sleeve and seal with the stuffing seal supplied with the kit.

Trim Kit Installation Instructions

1.Install the 1" x 1" x 84" long stuffer seal between the wall sleeve and the unit. A flat-bladed screwdriver or putty knife is needed.

2.Assemble the trim frame by inserting the top and bottom pieces into the side pieces and snapping them into place.

3.Pull the cord through the trim frame and slide the trim over the unit until it is flush with the wall.

Energy saving suggestion: In order to reach maximum energy savings and comfortability, it is necessary to use an appropriately sized cover to provide additional insulation and air sealing during the off season.
