WindowRequirements
NOTE: All supporting parts should be secured to firm wood, masonry, or metal.
1. This unit is designed for installation in standard double hung windows with actual opening widths of
22" to 36" The upper and lower sash must open sufficiently to allow a clear vertical opening of 13"
from the bottom of the sash to the window st_l.
2Jf storm window presents interference, fasten a 2" wide wood strip (OUTER SILL) to the inner
window sill across the full width of the sill. The w_d 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 Rg. 5-2. Top dwood 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 se_nd wood strip (_proximate[y 6" long by 11iz"wide and same thickness as first strip} in
the center of the outer sill flush against the back off the inner sill. This will raise the L bra_et as
shown Fig, 5-2,
4. If the distance between STORM WINDOW FRAME and WOOD STRIP MOUNTED ON TOP OF
INNER SiLL is more than 1", two of wood strip are not necessa_,
INNER WOOD STRIP MOUNTED 1" MAX.

Troubleshooting TiPs save time and money!
Review the chart below first and you may not need to call for service.
Normal Operation
• You may hear a pinging noise caused by water being picked up and thrown against the condenser
on rainy days or when the humidity is high. This design feature helps remove moisture and improve
efficiency.
• Water will collect in the base pan during high humidity or on rainy days. The water may overflow
and drip from the outdoor side of the unit.
• The fan may run even when the compressor does not.
