How to Install the Unit
Window Requirements
1. To prevent vibration and noise, make sure the unit
is installed securely and firmly
2. Install the unit where the sunlight does not shine
directly on the unit.
3. The outside of the cabinet must extend outward for
at least 12" and there should be no obstacles, such
as a fence or wall, within 20" from the back of the
cabinet because it will prevent heat radiation of the
condenser.
Restriction of outside air will greatly reduce the
cooling efficiency of the air conditioner.
All side louvers of the cabinet must remain exposed to the outside of the structure.
4. Install the unit slightly tilted so the back is slightly lower than the front (about
1
/
2
").
This will force condensed water to flow to the outside.
5. Install the unit with the bottom between 30"~60" above the floor level.
All supporting parts should be secured to firm wood,
masonry, or metal.
This unit is designed for installation in standard
double hung windows with actual opening widths
from 27" to 39".
The top and bottom window sash must open
sufficiently to allow a clear vertical opening of
16" from the bottom of the upper sash to the window stool.
