Trim strips are ordered to fill the gap between the Scholar III™ cabinet and the
finished inside surface of the wall, when the cabinet is offset from the wall.
Trim strips are 10 inches in depth and have a 1 inch 90° flange on one end to fit flush
to the finished inside wall. Trim strips can be used to accommodate cabinets with up
to a 9 inch offset from the wall.
Trim strips are packaged in corrugated marked on the outside with part number
03027 and strapped to a skid for shipment to the job site. They are painted to match
the cabinet color. The finished painted surfaces have a protective white film on the
surface to protect the surfaces from damage. Leave the film on the painted surfaces
until the strips have been installed and construction work in the area is completed.

The Scholar III™ heat pump and air conditioner cabinet and plenum (as appropriate)
must be installed, with the floor fasteners in place and the outside louver
installed, to ensure the fixed location of the system prior to installation of the trim
strips. Check the cabinet for vertical plumb and parallelism to the inside of the
finished wall prior to installing the trim strips.
