Instructions for bottom rail seal location.
MASONRY CONSTRUCTION
1. Cut or build a wall opening in the masonry wall
similar to the frame construction (refer to Step 2
of Thru-The-Wall Installation for wall thickness
greater than 8-1/2").
2. Secure cabinet in place using masonry nails or
the right masonry anchor screws. (Another way
to do this is to build an in-between frame of
2x4's as shown in Step 2 of Thru-The-Wall
Installation but make it double framed on either
side and install between masonry wall opening
and cabinet. Frame must be securely anchored
to masonry wall opening.) This way gives very
good louver clearance on either side of cabinet.
3. Install a lintel to support masonry wall above
cabinet. Existing holes in cabinet can be used
and/or additional holes can be drilled to fasten
cabinet at various positions. Be sure that side
louver clearance is in accordance with Step 1
of Masonry Construction.
4. Install exterior cabinet support brackets as
shown in Step 2 of Thru-The-Wall Installation.
Caulk or flash if needed to provide a weather-
tight seal around top and sides of cabinet.
5. To complete installation, apply wood trim
moulding around room side projection of cabinet.
