Understanding the window requirements
Your air conditioner is designed to be installed in standard double-hung windows with opening widths of 22-36 in. (55.9-91.4 cm) and a window height of 13.5 in. (34.3 cm). The lower sash must open sufficiently to allow a clear vertical opening of 13.7 in. (34.9 cm). Side louvers and the rear of the AC must have clear air space to allow enough airflow through the condenser for heat removal. The rear of the unit must be outdoors, not inside a building or garage.

Dealing with storm windows
If a storm window blocks your air conditioner, remove it before installing your air conditioner. If the storm window cannot be removed:

• Make sure that the storm window’s drain holes or slots are not caulked or painted shut. Accumulated rainwater or condensation must be able to drain out.
• Attach a piece of wood across the entire window sill with nails or screws to correctly angle your air conditioner.Your air conditioner should be tilted back about 3-4° downward toward the outside. After proper installation, condensate should not drain from the overflow drain hole during normal use. If it does, adjust the angle of your air conditioner.
• You must secure the support bracket to the added wood piece using the provided 1” type A screws. Refer to Step2: Installing the support bracket on page 18

Installing your air conditioner

Step 1: Preparing the support bracket

1. Remove your air conditioner, support bracket, and hardware from the box and place it on a flat surface.
2. Remove the packing material.
3. Find the center of your window and lightly mark it with a pencil.
4. Press the left spring push pin and adjust the left extension arm out, then do the same for the right extension arm.
5. Measure the width of the inner windowsill. Make sure that the center of the support bracket lines up with the center of the window, then adjust the extension arms to the width you just measured. The support bracket will be offset to the left when centered.
6. Cut bracket sealing foam strips to length and apply to the bottom of the bracket.

Step 2: Installing the support bracket

1. Open the window where your air conditioner is being installed.
2. Place the main support bracket into the window opening, making sure that the horizontal bracket and extension arms are located on the indoor side of the window.
3. Lower the bracket until it rests on the windowsill
4. For wooden windows with a flat sill, secure the bracket to the windowsill by drilling 1/8 in. pilot holes  andsecuring the bracket to the window with the 1/2” and 1” type A screws. For vinyl windows with a flat sill, secure the bracket to the windowsill by drilling 1/8 in. pilot holes and securing the bracket to the window with the 1/2” type A screws.
5. Move the angled support arms toward the exterior wall until the feet touch the wall. Place a level on the bracket and adjust the support arms so that it is level or tilted 1/4 bubble downward and towards the outside.
6. Insert the main support pin through the holes in the main support and angled support arm.
7. Using the numbers on the main support, repeat the adjustment for the other angled support arm matching the hole number from the first support arm.
8. Check the level again and make sure that the bracket is secure. If further adjustment is required, use alternate holes where the main supports attach to the horizontal bracket.
9. After making any final adjustments, insert the two cotter pins into the main support pin on both support brackets
10. If necessary, cover the holes on the front of the bracket with bracket-sealing foam.

Step 3: Installing your air conditioner on the support bracket

1. Measure the width of your window track (the vertical track your window slides up and down in). If it measures 1/2“or less, flip the anti-tip bracket so that the small end faces out, then continue with your air conditioner installation.
2. Set your air conditioner on top of the support bracket, making sure that the grooves on the bottom of your air conditioner align with the main supports. Using a level, check for proper tilt towards the outside.
3. Pull the window down into the slot on top of your air conditioner to help align it correctly. Keep the window partially inserted into the slot to help support your air conditioner during installation.
4. Fold down both side arm hinges.
5. Using 1/4 in. and 1/2 in. type B screws, install the open window brackets with an “L” shaped screwdriver if needed.

Step 4: Installing the sealing foam and anti-tip brackets

1. Measure the distance between the right side arm hinge and the closest part of the window frame. Add 1/4 in. to this distance and cut the side arm foam block to width.
2. Apply window sealing foam to the side arm foam block as shown. Note that the window sealing foam attaches to the side next to your air conditioner.
3. Insert a side arm foam block into the side arm hinge until the top front of the side arm foam is flush with the top of the hinge.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for the left side of your air conditioner.
5. Remove the two 1/2 in. screws from the top left and right sides of your air conditioner
6. Extend the anti-tip brackets (one on each side of your air conditioner) into the window tracks (the vertical track in which your window slides up and down) until they stop.
7. Secure the brackets in place using the screws you removed.
8. Install a strip of window sealing foam to the bottom of your lower window sash, sealing any small gaps between the window and your air conditioner, then close the window and check for gaps.
9. Fill any gaps with the included foam, as needed.
10. Extend the integrated window locks (located in the U channel) until they contact the window. For additional security, you can install the optional sash lock.
11. To secure the lower sash in place, attach the right angle sash lock with 1/2 in. type A screws.
12. Cut strips of window sash foam and insert them in the space between the upper and lower sashes.
13. As a final check, review the installation and check for any gaps or openings. Seal any gaps with additional sealing foam (provided), to make sure that there are no leaks.
