Wall Construction
The wall sleeve is designed to support the unit but the wall itself must be
adequate to support the unit. When this is an issue a support is needed at the
base of the unit.
For wood frame walls
; the sleeve can be adequately fastened with lag screws
into a minimum of doubled two by fours and should be pressed against only solid
wood material. Vibration pads can be used in light weight framing designs.
For masonry wall applications
; a proper lintel should be installed to
support the wall.
