for
Appliances.
To
ensure
continued
peak
efficiency,
the
condenser
coils
(outside
of
unit)
should
be
checked

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
stool.
2.If
storm
window
presents
interference,
fasten
a
2"
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
Fig.
5-2.
The
top
of
the
wood
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
second
wood
strip
(approximately
6"
long
by
11/2"
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
bracket
as
shown
Fig.
5-2.

If
the
distance
between
STORM
WINDOW
FRAME
and
WOOD
STRIP
MOUNTED
ON
TOP
OF
INNER
SILL
is
more
than
1",
two
of
wood
strips
are
not
necessary.
