Installation Instructions Grille Removal Important: Single intake grilles must be removed when used with dual intake Through-the-wall Units. Warning: When removing grilles, protect from falling by securing with a leash. This can be fashioned from cord or strapping looped through the grille and secured with a knot. Holding the grille by the leash with one hand the retaining screws can be removed and the grille can be brought inside through the front of the sleeve.

Installation Instructions Alternate Installation Options Non-Directional Grilles When installing a through-the-wall unit into a sleeve that utilizes a non-directional air flow grille, such as diamond expanded grille or an archiectural grille. It is recommended that the dual intake grillet supplied with the unit, be attached directly to the unit before inserting the unit into the sleeve.
PAGE 6
Installation Instructions Direct Unit Mounting In cases where the dual intake grille cannot be mounted directly to the sleeve it is desirable to attach the grille to the back of the through-the-wall air conditioner to the holes predrilled in the unit. 1. Attach the 2 seals (1” x 3/8” x 14”) as shown in Fig. 1. 2. Position the grille over the rear of the unit making sure that: a. The double set of screw holes are at the bottom b. The intake fins on either side are pointed away from the unit. 3.
PAGE 7
Installation Instructions Grille to Sleeve Attachment In cases where the dual intake grille fits inside the sleeve and the grille flange overlaps the sleeve flange, direct attachment may be possible. Grille Installation 1. Remove the existing grille. 2. Place the grille included with the new air conditioner towards the rear of the sleeve. 3. Mark through the hole positions. 4. Drill through the sleeve flanges with a 1/8" drill bit. 5.

Installation Instructions Non-Frigidaire Dual Intake Grille In cases where the existing sleeve is a non-Frigidaire sleeve but is installed with a dual intake grille. The existing grille may be left in place. Make sure the outer 3 ½” to 4 ½” louvers are angled from the left and right sides of the sleeve toward the center. (See Fig. 1). This provides proper flow of outside air into the unit. Fig. 1 From the installation kit, apply two 1” x ¾” x 14” seals along the flat metal flange of the condenser.

Installation Instructions Subsitute Grille Important: Single intake grilles must be removed when used with used with dual intake Through-the-wall Units. Installation of a standard size Through-the-Wall unit into older – larger sleeves may leave undesirable gaps around the grille edges. An option is to purchase ¾” diamond cut aluminum grille and cut it to fit inside the sleeve. Secure it with screws. Attach the dual intake grill directly to the back of the unit as described on page 6.
