Window Installation Instructions
1
STORM WINDOW REQUIREMENTS
A storm window frame will not allow the
air conditioner to tilt toward the outside,
and will keep it from draining properly.
To adjust for this, attach a piece of wood
to the sill.
WOOD PIECES –
WIDTH: 2
″
LENGTH:
Long enough to fit inside the
window frame.
THICKNESS:
To determine the thickness,
place a piece of wood on the sill to make
it 1/2
″
higher than the top of the storm
window frame or the vinyl frame.
Attach securely with nails or screws
provided by the installer.

REMOVE THE FRONT GRILLE
(IF ATTACHED)

On models with a
raise-up inlet grille,
lift it and remove
the screw behind it
(if present) that holds
the grille in place.
On models with a
slide-out air filter,
remove it and the
screw behind it
(if present) that holds
the grille in place.
Gently but firmly grasp
the lower grille corners,
press in on the case
sides and pull forward
to release.
NOTE:
Do not pull the
bottom edge toward
you more than 3
