1. WINDOW REQUIREMENTS

 

 

  These instructions are for a standard double-hung 

window. You will need to modify them for other 
types of windows. 

  The air conditioner can be installed without the 

accordion panels if needed to fit in a narrow 
window. See the window opening dimensions. 

  All supporting parts must be secured to firm wood, 

masonry or metal. 

  The electrical outlet must be within reach of the 

power cord. 

 

 

 

 

 

2. STORM WINDOW REQUIREMENTS 

 

A storm window frame will not allow the air 
conditioner to tilt toward the outside, and will keep it 
from draining properly. To adjust for this, attach a 
piece of wood to the stool. 

 

WOOD PIECES WIDTH:

 2" 

LENGTH: 

Long enough to fit inside the window frame. 

THICKNESS:

 To determine the thickness, place a 

piece of wood on the stool to make it 1/2" higher than 
the top of the storm window frame. 

 

Attach securely with nails or screws provided by the 
installer. 

 

 

 

 
 
 
 
 

 

3.  REMOVE THE AIR CONDITIONER 

FROM 

THE CASE 

 

A.  Remove the locking screw and locking 

bracket from the lower frame. Save to 
reinstall later. 

B.  Remove the ground screw and save to 

reinstall later. 

 

 

 

C. 

Slide the air conditioner from the case by gripping the 
base pan handle and pulling forward while bracing the 
case. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4. PREPARE THE WINDOW 

 

Cut the window sash seal to the proper length. Peel 
off the backing and attach the seal to the underside of 
the window sash.
