Wall Sleeve Installation
Figures 6 and 7 show installations for thin and panel wall
construction. For all wall constructions, the center of gravity
(10

" from the outside edge of the wall sleeve) must be
within the load bearing surface of the wall or other support
must be employed. Support can be provided by floor mount-
ing (with 208V/230V) units, a factory-supplied subbase or
from other field-supplied materials. Louver frames (figure 8)
are recommended for thin wall and panel wall applications
for positive anchoring to the wall. For thicker walls, wall
sleeve extensions are available from your local Remington
®
representative. Air splitters must be included in wall sleeve
extensions.
