STEP 3:
INSTALL THE AIR CONDITIONER IN
THE WINDOW
•
Carefully lift air conditioner and place the unit
into the window opening so the bottom of the air
conditioner frame is against the window sill. Close
the window behind the top rail of the unit.
THIS
MAY REQUIRE 2 PEOPLE.
• Check that the air conditioner is tilted back
approximately 3°~4° downward to the outside. If
the condensation does not drain after installation,
adjust the slope.
FOR STORM WINDOWS
• Remove the storm window and add wood, as
shown, before installing the air conditioner
• If the storm window frame must remain, be sure
the drain holes or slots are not caulked or blocked.
Rain water and condensation must be able to
drain out.
STEP 4:
SECURING THE AIR CONDITIONER
1.
Secure the top rail to the window sash with Type B
Wood Screws.
2.
Extend the left accordion panel across to reach
the window frame. Secure the top and bottom of
the accordion panel with Type B Wood Screws, as
shown. Repeat this step on the opposite side.
3.
Install Curtain Locks (F) to the bottom middle of
the accordion panel frame, one on each side.
Secure Curtain Locks with Type B Wood Screws.
4.
Install Upper Sash Lock (G) to the window frame
and secure with Type B Screws, as shown.
NOTE:
To prevent broken glass or damage to
the window, for vinyl or similarly constructed
windows, attach the upper sash lock to the
window side jamb.
5. Cut the Foam Seal (H) to the window width. Stuff
the sash between the glass and the window to
prevent air and insects from getting into the room.
