Installation

Clearance

Proper clearance enhances the cooling efficiency of the unit and prevents heat
radiation of the condenser.

1. If a storm window presents interference, fasten a 2" wide 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 by the storm window frame.

2. See Figure. B. The top of the wood strip should be approximately

3

/

4

" higher

than the storm window frame (Storm Window Frame) or wood strip (Outdoors)
to help condensation to drain properly to the outside.

3. Install a second wood strip (approximately 6" long by 1

1

/

2

" wide and same

thickness as first strip) in the center of the sill flush against the back off the
inner sill. This will raise the L bracket as shown Figure. B.

4. 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.
