Remove old Air Conditioner from wall sleeve and prepare wall sleeve as follows: Clean interior (do not disturb seals). Wall sleeve must be securely fastened in wall before installing Air Conditioner. Drive more nails or screws through sleeve, into wall, if needed. Retouch wall sleeve painted surface if needed. 3.
