INSTALLATION
OF

GREE
WALL
SLEEVE
USING
A
NON-GREE
GRILLE
This
application
has
become
more
common
due
to
pre-manufactured
windows
with
built-in
grilles
or
renovations
where
a
Gree
sleeve
is
used
with
an
existing
non-Gree
grille.
Use
of
a
Gree
wall
sleeve
with
a
non-Gree
grille
requires
installation
of
an
Accessory
Baffle
Kit
(see
disposal
system.
The
outdoor
fan
prop
has
a
built
in
slinger
ring
which
draws
condensate
water
through
a
suction
port
built
into
the
outdoor
coil
shroud.
The
|
ory
water
passes
though
the
suction
port
and
is
sprayed
on
the
warm
outdoor
coil
for
evaporation.
Thus
providing
better
disposal
of
excess
condensate
and
improving

operating
efficiency.
