Owner’s Manual

Tip: Be careful not to insert screws where they may interfere 

with the insertion of the Exterior Louver. Do not insert 
screws into the bottom pan of the wall sleeve as this may 
allow water to seep into the wall cavity.

4. Insert the wall sleeve through the rough wall opening from the

inside of the building and secure it into place.

Refer to custom shop and installation drawings and instructions 
in the Information Package that was sent with the Unit for exact 
measurements, descriptions and installation details.

Exterior Louver

The exterior louver is supplied with the unit and should slide into the 
wall sleeve from the outside of the building.  Fasten to the wall 
through the standard 2” flange. Refer to Information Package and 
installation diagrams shipped with the unit. (screws not provided)

NOTE: 

 Two condensate drain lines exit through the back of the unit 

and are supported by the exterior louver.

Wall Sleeve

Wall sleeves are typically shipped knocked down and must be field 
assembled.
Before proceeding, the wall opening must be prepared in accordance 
to the installation drawings, relative to the final installed position of 
the unit. It will likely be necessary to provide a support header across 
the top of the opening to comply with local building code 
requirements.

Tip: DO NOT install the exterior louver until after the Classroom 

Unit is fastened securely to the wall.

1. Prior to assembly, it may be necessary to trim the depth of the

wall sleeve to suit the finished wall thickness. If the finished wall
depth is greater than that of the wall sleeve or if the unit has a
rear standoff, it may be necessary to add extensions to the
sleeve and dividers, which must be fabricated in the field.

2. Assembly of the wall sleeve is detailed in the assembly drawings

inclosed in the information package provided with the unit
ventilator.  We recommend the use of ½” x #10 round head self
tapping sheet metal screws to fasten each component together.
Screws must be installed with heads out to prevent them from
catching in the rough wall opening during installation.

3. To assure a tight seal between the wall sleeve and the classroom

unit, apply foam tape to the mounting flanges of sleeve and
dividers.
