Window Requirements

Size
NOTE: Secure all supporting parts to firm wood,
masonry, or metal.
This room air conditioner is designed for installation in
standard double-hung windows with actual opening
widths from 29" to 41".
The upper and lower window sash must open
sufficiently to allow a clear vertical opening of 19"
from the bottom of the upper sash to the inside sill.
The height offset between the inside sill and outside sill
must be less than 1 ¼".
29" to 41"
19" min
Clearance
Proper clearance enhances the cooling efficiency of the
product.
If a storm window presents interference, fasten a 2"
1
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.
(See drawing.) The top of the wood strip on the
2
inside sill should be approximately ¾" higher
than the storm window frame or wood strip on the
outside sill to help condensation to drain properly to
the outside.
If necessary, install a second wood strip (same
3
thickness as first strip) across the full width of the
outer sill, flush against the back of the inner sill.

cabinet.

The unit is heavy. To prevent injury, use proper lifting
techniques when pulling unit forward from cabinet.

3
proper length. Peel off the backing and attach
the adhesive-backed foam to the underside of the
