Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Terminal connectors, Gasket kit

  1. Inspect the air conditioner

    Check for any visible damage and verify functionality before installation. Ensure the unit is upright for at least five minutes if it has been horizontal.

  2. Prepare the installation site

    Using the cutout dimensions provided, prepare the air 'IN' and air 'OUT' openings, and ensure there is adequate clearance around the unit for ventilation.

  3. Install gaskets

    Using the gasket kit provided, install gaskets to the air conditioner to ensure a proper seal.

  4. Mount the air conditioner

    Secure the air conditioner to the enclosure using the provided mounting bolts and screws. Use 'EZ' mount tabs to hold the unit in place while mounting.

  5. Connect the power supply

    Refer to the nameplate for electrical requirements and connect the power cord or wire the unit to a properly grounded power supply. Ensure no extension cords are used.

  6. Test functionality

    After connecting power, run the air conditioner for 5 to 10 minutes. Verify that the evaporator blower, condenser blower, and compressor are operating without excessive noise or vibration.

  7. Calibrate the thermostat

    Adjust the thermostat to the desired temperature setting by removing the nylon plug and using a screwdriver to turn the adjustment screw.

  8. Check drain tube installation

    Ensure the drain tube is routed with a continuous downward slope to prevent kinking and overflowing of the condensate drain pan.
