Note: The Koldfront Through the Wall Air Conditioner Sleeve (Model: WTCSLV) is designed
specifically for Koldfront’s line of through the wall air conditioners and can be purchased at
www.edgestar.com.
Preparing the Wall Sleeve
Your Koldfront Through The Wall Air Conditioner unit is intended to be installed into a compatible
wall sleeve enclosure. A wall sleeve provides the proper support and enclosure for your air
conditioner and allows for the wall opening to be properly sealed prior to final installation.
To properly install your new Koldfront Through The Wall Air Conditioner into a wall sleeve, it is
required that you use the Rear Louver Panel / Grille that was shipped with your new air
conditioning unit. This will ensure proper air flow from the back of the unit. If your installation
utilizes a previously installed wall sleeve, please replace the Rear Louver Panel / Grille with the
one provided with your new air conditioner.
Install Rear Louver Panel / Grille into NEW Wall Sleeve
Assemble and install your new wall sleeve according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Basic
instructions are as follows:
1. Prepare and install the new wall sleeve according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Ensure that the wall sleeve is properly fastened to the wall a minimum of 4” from any
heating source and that high-grade sealant / caulking has been used to prevent air and
water infiltration.
2. Place the Rear Louver Panel / Grille included with your new air conditioner towards the
rear of the sleeve.
3. Mark the mounting hole positions.
4. Drill through the sleeves flanges with a
