3.4 Porting and Duct Work
General Information
Note: The following instructions are for general guidance only. Due to the wide variety of installation
possibilities, specific instructions will not be given. When in doubt, follow standard and accepted
installation practices, or contact Technical Support for additional assistance.
Wall Openings (All EAA and EGA air conditioners)
Measure the dimensions of the supply and return ports on the unit.
Cut the openings in the exterior wall for the supply and return.
IMPORTANT:
All units with electric
heat must have 1" (25.4mm) clearance on all four sides of the supply outlet duct flange on the
unit. The 1" (25.4mm) clearance must extend on all sides of the supply duct for the first 3 feet (1
meter) from the unit.
IMPORTANT: Eubank
®
requires a minimum of 1" (25.4mm)
from the surface of any supply ducts
to combustible material for the first 3 feet (1 meter) of the duct.
For all air conditioners with electric heat, the wall sleeve
MUST
have 1” (25.4 mm) clearance around
all four sides of the opening. Attach the perimeter flange of the wall sleeve to the framed opening with
appropriately sized screws. Since electric heat can be added after the unit has been installed, Eubank
recommends that all installations have the 1” (25.4 mm) clearance around the wall sleeve.
When installing the wall sleeve, the supply opening must be on top. The supply opening is smaller than
the return air opening.
