Through-the-wall installation can be made in wood
frame or masonry walls. The casing must be tipped to
the outside to aid in draining condensate. The installation
should be weatherproofed outside and finished
inside.Installations in wood framed or masonry walls
can be made using the casing as follows. Fasten the
casing directly to masonry or studding using masonry
or woodscrews. Adjust the outward tip front to rear, so
it drops from 3/16 to 3/8-in. (5-10-mm). If wall thickness
overlaps the side louver in unit casing,make wall opening
wider, as shown in Fig. below. If wall projects beyond
back of unit, use baffles onrear corners of casing.
Cut opening in wall. For dimensions see Fig. below.
Frame opening in wall. For wood framing,provide
a wooden framing support or other approved
structure for fastening casing to wall. See Fig.
for typical wood framing.
Tipical wood framing
For masonry framing, use a lintel to support wall
above opening. Mouting angles are sometimes
assembled to casing. Be sure to size the wall opening
to provide clearance for metal thickness of casing
and mouting angles if they are used. If mounting
angles are to be used with casing, position angles
as follows:
1.
Flush with unfinished wall - plaster over or use
decorative molding.
2.
Against finished wall - use decorative molding.
3.
Inside wall opening - use decorative molding.
