INSTALLATION
Before beginning the installation, it is suggested that the cabinet front and air filter be removed to avoid damage during installation of the
unit.
1.
Cut an opening in the outside wall and frame to the minimum opening as illustrated in Figures 2 or 3. Refer to Table 1 for minimum
clearances to obstruction. Use conventional construction methods to frame opening.
Do not use wall sleeve as a lintel.
The
framed opening should allow for the sloping of the sleeve toward outside wall as illustrated in Figures 4 or 5, in order to assure
proper drainage.
Do not install wall sleeve level or slope toward room.
2.
Unfold the sides of the wall sleeve and assemble the top, being sure that the sides wedge between the top flange on the top and the
retaining angle as illustrated in Figure 6. Secure at top corners with screws provided. If the opening in the rear of the sleeve for rear
gas hook-up is not used, you may block the opening using the bird guard supplied with the sleeve. (See Figure 6A for illustration)
3.
Install wall sleeve into framed opening with the three drain holes to the outside. Minimum projection of wall sleeve into the room is
flush with finished wall or molding, as illustrated by “x” dimension in Figures 4 or 5.
CAUTION
Be sure sleeve protrudes far enough into the room to allow for any interior wall studding, insulation and dry wall or
finished wall to be added during construction.
Do not install sleeve flush with finished exterior wall.
IMPORTANT
When replacing existing DynaLine units with new DynaLine 3 units, it is recommended to replace the wall sleeve as
well. During the replacement process the sleeve may become damaged or incorrectly aligned.
If sleeve installed with floor clearance from 0” to less than 3-1/2”, the sleeve must protrude a minimum of 1-5/8” beyond finished
surface of exterior wall. (See Figure 4). This is to allow for rear gas hook-up. If sleeve is installed with floor clearance of 3-1/2” or
greater, the sleeve must protrude a minimum of 1/4” beyond finished surface of exterior wall. (See Figure 5)
NOTE
: Wall sleeve installations that protrude into the room 4” or more require the use of Leg Leveling Kit #520600 or other means
of supporting the wall sleeve. (See Figure 8). Failure to support the wall sleeve front in such installations may cause improper
sleeve slope(1/4” rear slope required - see Step 4 below), which may result in improper condensate leakage into the interior room
space.
For installations in windows and/or curtain or panel walls of 2”, it is suggested that a minimum of two field supports be installed
under wall sleeve since no screws can be used in bottom of sleeve to the wall.
Field supplied wall sleeve angles 1” x 1” x .065/.055 are to be used on top, sides and bottom of wall sleeve. (See Figure 9)
