that it is flush with grille frame.

between the unit and the 2 X 4stud. Shim gap to properly
align and support fan coil unit. The horizontal bottom 2 X 4
shelf should be 6 to 18 in. above floor level, and the top 2 X

recessed from finished wall surface. Drive 4 field-supplied
screws through holes provided in fan coil casing side into 2

between unit and wall framing before tightening screws, or
leave screws on one side loose (for location only),
