RoomHeatPumps
Heatpumpsworkbymovingheatinsteadofcreatingit. Inthe
summer, the cool indoor coil absorbs heat from your room
andmovesitoutdoors,providingcooling. Inthewinter,heat
pumpsreversethisoperation. Byloweringthetemperature
of the outdoor coil below the outdoor temperature, the heat
pump absorbs the heat from outdoors and moves it inside
yourhouse. Thisheattransferring processisveryefficient.
Forexample,at45°Foutdoortemperature,aheatpumpcan
provide 2 ½ watts of heat for every watt of electricity it
consumes.
As outdoor temperatures drop, the heating capacity and
efficiencyoftheheatpumpdeclines. Attemperaturesbelow
45°F, it is likely that ice will form on the outdoor coil. Heat
pump units are designed to operate as a heat pump above
approximately 40°F. Below 40°F, these units switch auto-
matically from reverse cycle heat pump to auxiliary electric
heating. No defrost is required. There is no minimum
operatingtemperature.
NormalCareandMaintenance
WARNING
Installing an air conditioner through a wall requires
extensive carpentry and/or masonry experience.
Thru-wall installations performed by inexperienced
or unqualified individuals can result in costly
damage to home or result in equipment malfunction
that could cause property damage, personal injury
or death.

WARNING
Installing an air conditioner through a wall requires

that could cause property damage, personal injury
or death.

In order to reinstall the chassis and re-
attach the air conditioner front cover, the
installed outercase must be square and
level from side to side. Use wood shims
between sides of case and finished open-
ing - especially where case is secured to
opening - to prevent warping or distorting.
Check installed case for distortion using
carpenter's square.
CAUTION
Afinished opening 26 1/8-inches widex 17-inches high is
recommended.Thelower left insidecornerof opening must
bewithin 5 feet of an appropriate electrical outlet (see Use
andCaremanualfor electrical requirements.)
When wall thickness exceeds 9-inches, opening must be
modified to allow air to enter side louvers on case (see spe-
cial instructions on back ). Do not install air conditioner in
walls thicker than 11 2/5-inches.
Brick Veneer or Frame Wall Construction
See CAUTION under General Instructions. Cut or build
roughopeninglargeenough to allow aframed,finished
opening17-inches high and 261/8-incheswide.When case
is properly positioned in opening, secure it to framing mate-
rial with nails or screws driven through holes in sides of

Placement of Outer Case in Opening
Place outer case in opening, flush against one side of
opening.Use carpenter’s level andensure case islevel
from side to side and has a 3/8-inch slope from front to back
(back of case must be 3/8-inch lower than front to ensure
propercondensatedrainage). If needed, useshimsto level
case (from side to side) and to obtain proper back slope.
Front of case must project ¾-inch (minimum) beyond in-
sidewall in order to attachair conditioner front frame. If
framingindoorside of opening withwoodmolding (or other
decorativematerial),extend outer case¾-inchbeyond

When case is properly positioned in opening, use wood
shims to fill any gaps between case and finished opening,
especially in area where case will be secured to opening.
Take care not to warp or distort case when installing
shims.For condensate drainage, installdrainage cup in
drainhole on baseplateof case.

Masonry Construction
See CAUTION under General Instructions. In masonry
walls, cut or build a finished opening 17-inches high by
261/8-inches wide. When case is properly positioned in
