2. Wall sleeve location
When making the wall opening, please observe the following requirements:
•
The air inlet and outlet should be unblocked so the air can be delivered to every
corner of the room.
•
Install the unit in a location that is away from heat sources or sources of
inflammable gases.
•
Install the unit in a location that is not directly exposed to sunlight.
•
Do not install the unit in places that are subject to strong wind or dust.
•
There should be sufficient space margins around the unit to facilitate maintenance
and repairs (refer to Figs. 2 and 3)
Critical Dimensions

sleeve for later access.

3. Preparation of the wall
The sleeve should be installed during construction and lintels should be used to
support the block above the wall sleeve. The sleeve can not support the load of
bricks/blocks.
For existing construction, the wall opening must be created, and the proper
dimensions are necessary to avoid use of fillers or additional framing. The sleeve is
modular in height and width (refer to Fig 4 & Chart 2).
