Through-the-Wall Cabinet Installation:
Option 1- Wood, Metal or Plastic Molding
When using a wood, metal or plastic molding,
the wood frame should line up with the inside wall.
Option 2- Plastered wall with no molding (FIG. 18):
If the plastered wall is to be flush with the cabinet
and no molding is used, the wood frame must be set
1/2″ (13 mm) into the inside wall. (FIG. 19)
Install Wood Frame:
1. Construct the wood frame. See FIG. 20 for dimensions.
2. Measure the outside width and height of frame to determine
wall opening dimensions. The wall measurements should be:
Width: 22-5/8″ (57.5 cm) plus twice thickness of wood used to build frame.
Height: 16″ (40.6 cm) plus twice thickness of wood used to build frame.
Depth: 2-1/2″ (6.4 cm) minimum to 6-1/2″ (16.5 cm) maximum.
3. Cut the opening through the wall. Remove and save insulation.
4. Apply the wood preservative to the outside exposed surface.
5. Insert the frame in the wall opening. Square and level frame.
6. Attach frame securely to the wall.
Dimensions for depth depends on wall thickness and type of molding
(FIG. 21).
Do not block louvers in air conditioner cabinet. Use 1″ (2.5 cm) or
thicker lumber for wood frame.
