Exterior Grilles
Four styles of outdoor grilles are available for exterior
treatments. The standard stamped aluminum grille (RAG60),
the molded architectural louvered exterior grilles (RAG61-6),
the molded architectural louvered exterior grilles with flange
(RAG64-66), and the extruded aluminum architectural
louvered grille (RAG67). All grilles include air deflectors
and gaskets to prevent condenser air recirculation.

RAG60 Outdoor Grille — The standard exterior grille is made
of durable aluminum to protect chassis components and
prevent air recirculation.
RAG61, 62, 6 Architectural Grille — One-piece optional
molded grille and frame assembly provides improved
appearance, protection and weatherability. Molded of
durable polycarbonate, the surfaces of the grille have a
colorfast, slightly textured finish which blends well with
most types of wall surfaces. The grilles can be painted in
the field to match the building for improved aesthetics.
RAG64, 65, 66 Architectural Grille with Flange — Identical to
RAG61-6 grilles with the addition of a 1/2" flange around the
top and sides to help conceal the juncture of the RAB71 wall
case and the wall opening. The best appearance is achieved
with this grille when the wall case extends minimally (between
1/4" and 1/2") beyond the exterior face of the building.
Colors: RAG61 and 64 — Beige; RAG62 and 65 — Dark Maple
RAG6 and 66 — Bittersweet Chocolate.
RAG67 Extruded Aluminum Grille — The RAG67 is made from
extruded anodized aluminum for use where an aluminum
architectural grille is preferred. The RAG67 is available in a
clear finish and may be special ordered from GE in other
colors. Minimum order quantities may be required. Contact
your General Electric salesperson for details.
All grilles are installed and secured to the wall case from the
inside. Keyhole slots in the rear flange of the case allow the
grille to be placed in position before securing it firmly to the
wall case.
Replacement of existing units: If an existing grille is not
replaced, capacity and efficiency will be reduced and the
unit may fail to operate properly or fail prematurely. A
deflector kit, RAK40, may be used with grilles that were
not designed for current AZ Series GE Zoneline units. The
RAK40 contains air deflectors and gaskets that mount to
the chassis to direct the hot exhaust air away from the air
intake to allow the unit to function properly. All grilles used
with GE Zoneline
®
units must comply with requirements
of Exterior Architectural Treatments and Special Outdoor
Grilles as follows.
