Introduction 

This instruction sheet provides guidelines for 
installing a compact air conditioner through an 
outside wall. 

 

 

 

Installing an air conditioner through a wall requires 
extensive carpentry and/or masonry experience. 
Thru-wall installations performed by inexperienced or 
unqualified individuals can result in costly damage to 
home.

 

 

 

Air Conditioner Dimensions 

The following figures show the outside dimensions of 
air conditioner with chassis installed, and 
dimensions of outer case with chassis removed.

General Instructions 

All Soleus Air brand Compact Room Air Conditioners 
feature a slide-out chassis. Chassis and front cover 
must be removed from outer case for installation. 

 

 

 

In order to reinstall the chassis and reattach the air 
conditioner front cover, the installed outer case must 
be square and level from side to side. Use wood 
shims between sides of case and finished opening–
especially where case is secured to opening–to 
prevent warping or distorting. Check installed case for 
distortion using carpenter’s square. 

 

 
A finished opening 26 

1/8

 - inches wide x 17-inches 

high is recommended. The lower left inside corner of 
opening must be within 5 feet of an appropriate 
electrical outlet (see Use and Care manual for 
electrical requirements.) 
 
When wall thickness exceeds 9 -inches, opening 
must be modified to allow air to enter side louvers on 
case (see special instructions on back ). Do not 
install air conditioner in walls thicker than 11 

2/5

 -

inches. 

 

 

Dimensions of Finished Opening 

 

Masonry Construction

 

See CAUTION under General Instructions. 

In

1/8

-inches wide. When case is 

properly positioned in opening, secure it in place 
with mortar or concrete nails driven through holes in 
sides of outer case (shim case and predrill holes 
before securing with nails).
