Panel/Curtain/Window Wall Application
Clearances and projections
The wall sleeve will need to be installed so that the sleeve
projects into the room a minimum of 1.25 inches and a
maximum of 11.5 inches.
The wall sleeve will need to be installed so that the sleeve
projects beyond the exterior wall a minimum of 0.25
inches.
When installed in the appropriate wall sleeve, this appli-
ance has zero clearance to combustible construction.
The minimum required clearance distance between the
wall sleeve and finished floor is 3.0 inches. Wall sleeve
installations that project into the room 4.5” or more
require the use of Leveling Legs or other means of sup-
porting the wall sleeve.
Window/panel Wall Installation
For installations in windows and/or curtain or panel
walls of 2”, it is suggested that a subbase or leveling legs
kit be installed under wall sleeve.
To attach wall sleeve to the inside wall, field supplied wall
sleeve angles 1” x 1” x .065/.055 are to be used on top and
sides of wall sleeve.
Seal around the outside portion of the wall sleeve using
weatherproof caulking to form a seal against rain, snow,
