Unit Placement

See 

Unit Dimensions

 on page 8 for sizing mounting slab,

platforms or supports. Refer to figure 2 for mandatory
installation clearance requirements.

CAUTION

In order to avoid injury, take proper precaution when
lifting heavy objects.

POSITIONING CONSIDERATIONS

Consider the following when positioning the unit:

Some localities are adopting sound ordinances based
on the unit's sound level registered from the adjacent
property, not from the installation property. Install the
unit as far as possible from the property line.

When possible, do not install the unit directly outside
a window. Glass has a very high level of sound
transmission. For proper placement of unit in relation
to a window see the provided illustration in figure 3,
Detail A.
