INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLATION IN A SLIDING WINDOW

1. Attach the support brace to the platform.

Use the adjustment bolt and hex flange nut to complete the assembly. Choose the slot and adjustment bolt hole that will create a 45 degree angle between the platform and the support brace. Hold the assembled platform in the chosen window location to ensure the assembly will rest properly and allow for a 3/16" slope to the outside. If you are planning to use a siding protection board (see Step 5) hold the board in place to test the platform assembly configuration.

2. Measure and mark the window sill.

Measure 8 11/16" from the window jamb and mark a line on the window sill. This mark will help to center the support platform in the window. If any sash stop protrudes more than 1 inch from the side window jambs, the measurement should be increased accordingly. Screen and storm window frames may also require adjustments to the measurement.

3. Make screw holes for the platform.

Center the platform assembly on the line marked in the previous step with the inside platform tab pressed against the inside edge of the window track. Using the holes on the platform as a guide, mark and drill two 9/64" diameter holes. Drill holes in either track or stool.

Caution: Ensure the wood stool or window track is securely attached to the building construction. Use longer screws to reach the sub-framing if necessary.

4. Add the foam track seal.

Remove the protective backing from the foam track seal. Apply the seal to the room side of the window track. The center of the foam seal should coincide with the line marked in Step 2. The two screw holes drilled in Step 3 should be directly above the foam seal in the inner track.

5. Add a siding protection board.

A siding protection board can be used to protect the house siding from damage. The board should be long enough to span two wall studs.

Adjust the platform assembly so that the air conditioner will be 1" to 1 1/4" lower in the back, tilted approximately 3° to 4° downward to the outside. This allows condensation that forms inside the appliance during normal use to drain to the outside.

6. Install the platform assembly.

Place the platform assembly in the window with the platform tab against the inside of the window track and attach it to the window jamb using the provided screws.

Ensure that the platform assembly is tilted 1" to 1 1/4" (3° to 4°) downward to the outside.

Ensure that the platform assembly is level from side to side. Make sure the window track is level. Use leveling shims as necessary to ensure the appliance is level.

7. Cut the plastic window panel.

Measure the height of the window opening from the top of the platform assembly to the top of the window opening. Subtract 20 5/8" to account for the size of the air conditioner and mark the measurement on the plastic window panel along the longer side. Cut the panel to the correct size and remove any burrs with a file.

8. Attach the side channels.

Fasten the side channels to the sides of the air conditioner using the provided screws. Make sure the hook ends of the channels face the rear of the appliance.

9. Assemble the window panel and frame

Slide the plastic window panel into the panel frame with the smooth side facing the room. Slide the panel frame assembly into the side channels of the air conditioner cabinet. Make sure the plastic window panel is firmly enclosed on all sides by the retainer grooves.

10. Add the weather stripping.

Cut the side channel foam seal into two equal lengths. Remove the protective backing and apply it to the rear side of the cabinet side channels, starting just below the panel frame assembly. Cut off any excess length so the seal is even with the bottom of the cabinet side channel.

11. Remove the front panel.

Remove the two front retaining screws from the front frame. Pull the front out and lift up to release the front cover from the cabinet. Release the coupler plugs. Removing the front panel will allow you to install the safety bracket in step 13.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLATION IN A SLIDING WINDOW

12. Install the air conditioner.

Place the air conditioner in the window opening. It should sit on the platform assembly so that the window panel frame and cabinet side channels are against the top and side window jambs.

Slide the inner window sash firmly against the side of the cabinet. Make sure not to peel off the side channel or window track foam seals. If the panel frame does not fit snugly against the inner window sash, secure the panel frame to the sash with 3/4" screws or 3/4" self threading screws. Use the partially plugged holes in the panel frame. Drill 1/8" pilot holes for the screws.

13. Install the safety bracket.

Hook the safety bracket over the base of the cabinet and fasten it to the front of the platform assembly with a 3/4" self threading screw. The safety bracket prevents movement of the air conditioner after completing the installation.

14. Install the sash foam and window lock.

Insert the foam sash seal between the vertical sash and the window glass. Use the window locking bracket to lock the inner window sash to the base of the outer window sash. Use 3/4" screw or 3/4" self threading screw.

15. Replace the front cover.

Reconnect the coupler plugs and ensure that the exhaust control is positioned through the front cover in the correct location. Replace the retaining screws on the sides of the cabinet that hold the front cover in place.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLATION IN A CASEMENT WINDOW

If you are installing the air conditioner in a casement window, follow the above steps for a sliding window but keep the following points in mind:

  • Open the window the maximum amount to allow for clearance of the cabinet.
  • The crank handle should be removed to allow the platform assembly to be fastened to the window jamb.
  • If the window cannot open far enough for the cabinet to clear the window, (more than 15 1/2") remove the window entirely by drilling out the rivets. Bolts can service as the pivots in future.
  • To avoid the crank handle and window clearance problems, install the appliance in a stationary sash section. The horizontal mullion and the two glass panels must be removed before installation.

ALTERNATE WINDOW JAMB APPLICATIONS

To install the air conditioner in windows that do not have flanges or wood stops on the top and side jambs, the channels and panel frame must fit against a mating flange (or 1/16" maximum thick angle) attached to the window jambs.

Figure A shows this angle installed.

Figures B and C show alternate treatments.

On the sash side of the opening the leading corner of the inner sash becomes the flange. You can purchase the angle strip locally.
