Wall Case Installation Data (Continued)

For new construction, early planning with the architect is 
necessary. Unit location, electrical connection locations and 
wall openings of the proper dimensions are essential to avoid 
the necessity of rework, fillers, framing, moving electrical 
outlets and other expensive modifications. 
For existing construction it is important that carpentry, 
masonry and electrical work be performed by competent, 
qualified personnel. Since installations in existing construction 
may involve removal of building material from the structure, 
locating the wall case must be done correctly.

Architectural Window/ 
Louver Installation

Many installations utilize an architectural window/louver 
combination to enhance the exterior appearance of the 
building. The exterior grille for the air conditioner is built as an 
integral part of the window frame. An internal drain system 
is highly recommended for these installations (see page 
36). When this type of installation is made, there must be 
provision in the grille work for condensate water to drain to 
the exterior (including the overflow relief drain holes) and not 
be routed back into the interior of the building or into the wall 
cavity. Failure to allow for the drainage of condensate water 
can cause extensive damage to structural components. 
The problems associated with the lack of condensate drain 
consideration often show up shortly after the air conditioners 
are turned on in a new building. New buildings that have 
been virtually wide-open during construction have a 
significant amount of moisture in the air and in the building 
components that the air conditioners start removing as they 
operate. The free area in the louver section must also comply 
with the requirements shown on page 41. 
The wall case should be anchored to the architectural 
window/louver section to reduce air infiltration and 
excessive vibration of the chassis and wall case during unit 
operation. Field-fabricated and installed case angles are 
the recommended method of securing the wall case to the 
window/louver framework.      

Window, Curtain and Panel  
Wall Construction

With this type of construction, provision for support of the 
unit, other than by the wall itself, is often required. Such 
support may be in the form of wood or metallic material of 
the proper thickness to maintain a level case. This additional 
support should be located both near the wall and at the front 
of the wall case. Sub-base (RAK204 Series) with four leveling 
legs provides an excellent support for the unit in this type of 
installation. See page 28 for details of this type of installation.
In existing construction, common practice is to remove a 
pane of glass, metal, wood, or other construction material 
and build a frame around the wall case. Similar filler panel 
material may be installed around the case for appearance 
and weather seal.

Masonry Wall Construction

The wall case should be installed during construction and 
lintels should be used to support the blocks above the wall 
case. The wall case will not support the concrete block.  
The installation instructions show how the wall case must 
be secured to the masonry and caulked. Do not remove the 
cardboard stiffener supplied with the wall case until ready  
to install the chassis. See page 29 for details of installation  
in masonry wall.
For existing masonry construction, wall openings must be 
made by removing concrete blocks to achieve the proper-  
size opening. Consult the builder, architect or owner to 
determine the necessity for lintels to support the block  
above the wall case.
Anchor bolts are normally required to secure the case to 
the wall and shims may be required to prevent distortion of 
the wall case when securing the wall case to the wall. Field- 
supplied case angles can be used to position and secure the 
wall case to the wall and to cover oversized wall openings.

Brick, Frame, Stucco and  
Shingle Construction

For new construction, the opening for the wall case should 
be framed and the wall case inserted into the opening during 
construction. Lintels should be used when the building 
material is heavy and is not self-supporting (such as brick). 
The wall case will fit an opening of six courses of standard 
brick or five courses of jumbo brick. Wall framing in this  
type construction is normally on 16" centers and the wall 
case will fit a framed opening spanning three 16" O.C. 2" x 4" 
stud spaces. 
For existing construction, the indoor and outdoor wall will 
need to be cut out, allowing for clearances of 1/8" on all sides 
of the wall case. Work should begin on the inside wall. Cut the 
correct dimensions and mark (using drill holes) the outside 
wall from each corner of the inside cutout. Studding that 
interferes with the opening must be removed and a suitable 
frame constructed to secure the wall case and provide 
adequate support for case and chassis.
As shipped, the RAB71A Series or RAB77 is ready for 
installation.
