condensate water. Remove the air conditioner from the window .

Install a second wood strip(approximately 6
long by 1.5
wide and same thickness as first strip) in the
center of the outer sill flush against the back of the inner sill, as shown in FIG.12.
IF AIR CONDITIONER IS BLOCKED BY STORM WINDOW FRAME
If storm window presents interference, fasten a 2
w
ide wood strip to the inner window sill across the
full width of the sill. The wood strip should be thick enough to raise the height of the window sill so that
the unit can be installed without interference from the storm window frame. See FIG.12.
Proper clearance enhances the cooling efficiency of the unit and prevents heat radiation of the condenser.
The top of the wood strip should be approximately 0.75
higher than the storm window frame or wood
strip to help condensation to drain properly to the outside.
If the distance between storm window frame and wood strip mounted on top of inner sill is more than 1
two of wood strips are not necessary.
