WINDOW INSTALLATON

INSTALLATION

Casement Window Installation

This air conditioner is designed to fit into most casement type windows.
As shipped from factory, unit will fit into a minimum window opening
15 1/2” wide and 21” high. The preferred method of installation is
through a closed or stationary window. Installation in an open window
frame is also possible where open window can be secured to outside of
building or removed completely.

1.

Closed or Stationary Window:

Install unit in stationary sash to

avoid crank handles or window latches. If unit is to be installed in
or next to a movable sash, it may be necessary to remove catch,
handle or both. Remove crank handle and secure window in
closed position. Remove glass panes and separating strips to a
height sufficient to mount unit.

2.

Open Window Frame:

Remove crank mechanism and catch

handles. Fold window sash back against exterior wall of building
and secure, or remove completely where possible.

3.

A filler panel will be required at side of unit when installed in
windows having width greater than 15 1/2”. Filler panel should be
made from 3/4” thick wood securely anchored to one side of
opening so that 15 1/2” wide opening is provided. Filler panel
should run full length of window. Paint to suit.

4.

Install unit in same manner as described for sliding windows.

Installation in Wood Sliding or Wood Casement Windows

1.

For wood frame casement windows, it is necessary to construct a
frame, using at least 1” thick wood with a 15 1/2” wide opening.

2.

Paint frame and fasten it securely, sealing it into window opening.

3.

Install unit into frame following procedures for metal sliding and
casement windows.

These installations are also typical, and since styles and sizes of
casement windows vary widely, it is advisable to have unit installed by
someone skilled in this type of installation. The dealer selling these units
can recommend or supply qualified people to install your new unit.

Directing Airflow

Air conditioner is engineered with adjustable louvers to direct discharge airflow.

Louvers are manually adjusted by moving levers in direction of desired airflow.

Cleaning Air Filter

When air conditioner is operating, indoor air is filtered and refiltered continuously
trapping airborne dirt and dust in the washable filter. Therefore, the filter should be
inspected and cleaned weekly.

1. Turn Master Control to OFF.

2. Grasp both sides near top of inlet grill and pull forward. Inlet grill will pivot

forward to reveal air filter.

3. Remove air filter from tabs.

4. Carefully wash air filter with a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse with

clear water, squeeze dry and replace.

5. Replace inlet grill.

6. Return Master Control to desired operation.
