One hole is required for the air conditioner tubing, and
may be either on the left or right side. (Also see
section 3-18. Preparing the Indoor Side Tubing.)
(1)
Tape the full-scale installation diagram on the
wall at the location selected. Make sure the unit is
horizontal, using a level or tape measure to
measure down from the ceiling. (Fig. 3-41)
(2)
Determine if the hole is to be drilled at the left or
right hole location.
(3)
Before drilling a hole, check that there are no
studs or pipes behind the determined location.
Avoid area where electrical
wiring or conduit is located.
Also take this precaution if
the tubing goes through a
wall at any other location.
(4)
Using a sabre saw, key hole saw or 3-5/32 in.
hole-cutting drill attachment, make a hole in the
wall. The required minimum hole diameter for
these models is 3-3/16 in. (Fig. 3-42)
(5)
Measure the thickness of the wall from the inside
edge to the outside edge and cut PVC pipe at a
slight angle 1/4 in. shorter than the thickness of
the wall. (Fig. 3-43)
(6)
Place the plastic cover over the end of the pipe,
(for indoor side only) and insert in the wall.
