Now that you have determined where the modules will be placed, it is time to install the Breeze air conditioning system.  
STEP 2 – Hang wall mount bracket  
Using the paper template as a guide, locate two studs  
behind screw hole locations in the template. It is  
preferable to mount the hanging plate on studs. If two  
studs are not available, utilize anchors appropriate for  
the wall type with a combined weight capacity of at least  
60 lbs. Standard wood screws and drywall anchors are  
provided.  
If you are installing the system by drilling a 3” hole  
through the wall (Option 1), mark the location of the 3”  
hole centerline on the wall as well

worker where necessary.  
NOTE:  
Option 1: Drill hole Through-the-Wall Installation  
Attach the wall  
bracket to the wall  
with at least two  
screws capable of  
securing at least  
60 lbs.  
Drill 3” hole through the exterior wall.  
NOTE: This should only be done by qualified install-  
ers. Consult local and national codes before drilling any  
holes. Mark the hole location on the indoor wall using  
the template. (If locating unit above a window or door,  
make sure the hole is above structural header)  
Using a stud finder, scan area around desired hole loca-  
tion for pipes, ducts, electrical conductors and struc-  
tural elements. Relocate indoor unit mounting location  
as necessary to avoid interference.  
Using a 3” hole saw, drill hole through wall from inside  
toward outside. When hole saw cuts through inside wall,  
stop drilling. DO NOT drill the entire 3” hole from the  
inside to prevent insulation and exterior wall damage.

3.2  
Depending on the type of insulation, it might be neces-  
sary to trim excess insulation prior to completing the  
hole. Once insulation is removed, continue drilling from  
inside until center drill bit of the saw just penetrates the  
outside wall.

Option 2: Window Installation Using Friedrich SimpleSill™  
1. Be sure window sill is clean and free of dirt and debris. With the window raised,  
place bottom seal gasket (trimmed to window width) firmly against window sill  
(adhesive side down). Expand the SimpleSill™ 1” greater than the width of the win-  
dow and install the securing pin. Place one end of the SimpleSill™ into the window  
opening so it is against the corner of the window frame and sill. Raise the other  
side of the SimpleSill™ 6-9 inches (depending on window width) above the window  
sill. Next, press the raised side down until the SimpleSill™ is lodged securely into  
position. The SimpleSill™ end gaskets will conform to the window track shape.

2. Reference Step 4.2 and pass the connecting line out the window and insert it into  
the connecting line form in the SimpleSill™.  
3. Install top seal gasket to the bottom of the window so it will seal against the top of  
the SimpleSill.  
4. Replace the pass through cover.  
5. Insert securing pins.  
6. Lower window frame against SimpleSill compressing gasket.  
7. Depending on the type of window, install the appropriate security lock as recom-  
mended by manufacturer.  
STEP 4 - Line set installation  
The Breeze connecting line set contains copper tubing that may kink if bent or formed incorrectly or repeatedly.  
To avoid damaging your Breeze air conditioning system follow the 3 rules below throughout installation:  
1) DO NOT uncoil and recoil the connecting line set more than two times.  
2) DO NOT bend tubing in a radius smaller than 6”  
3) ALWAYS use the tube bending guide when making bends greater than 45°  
Following these instructions is critical for proper installation and to avoid damage to the unit. Damage to the  
connecting line due to improper installation will not be covered by the warranty.  
4.1 Option 1 (3” hole pass through)  
Completely uncoil the line set as straight as possible. Starting with the quick connect end of the line set, pass the entire  
length through the 3” hole. (Before installation break small plastic knockout on side of indoor unit for power cord to  
pass through-see Step 3, Figure 3.1).  
STEP 5  
4.2 Option 2 (SimpleSillwindow installation)  
Uncoil enough of the line set to completely pass through the SimpleSill. Pre bend  
the line set using the enclosed template to match the desired shape as it passes  
through the SimpleSill. Place remaining coiled line set outside the window for  
later connection to the outdoor unit. Break full plastic knockout for line set to pass  
through the side of the indoor unit-see Step 3, Figure 3.2.  
STEP 5 - Hang the indoor module on the wall bracket.  
Hang the module at the top first and rotate it down until the module is level with the  
wall. (You may need to make adjustments to the connecting line to get the indoor  
module to mount cleanly) The Breeze module is not designed to mount totally flush  
to the wall. A space of 1/8” to 3/8” may be present between the module and the  
wall.  
The line set will sit in the recess of the  
back of the indoor unit when mounted.

STEP 6 - Place the mounting pad.  
STEP 6  
Position the mounting pad so that the mounting holes are away from the house. Set the  
outdoor module on the mounting pad so that the module feet align with the mounting holes.  
Screw the outdoor module to the mounting pad with the 4 condenser pad installation washers  
and screws provided (Items #8 and #9 in the Accessories List).  
STEP 7 – Connect the quick connector from the indoor line set outdoor module.  
1. Open lock handle on line-  
set connector by pulling  
back and rotating toward  
indoor unit.  
2. Grasp outer lock collar on  
line-set connector and pull  
back until it stops.  
3. While holding outer lock  
collar rearward, push line-  
set connector body over  
base connector on outdoor  
unit half way and release  
outer lock collar.  
4. Continue to push line-set  
connector onto base con-  
nector until outer lock col-  
lar engages base connector.  
The outer lock collar will  
snap into position with base  
connector and a click will  
be heard.  
6. Install security screw  
(Item 13 in the Accessories  
List) to prevent tampering  
with line-set connector  
mechanism.  
5. Grasp lock handle and  
rotate to its closed posi-  
tion.  
1.  
If you have excess connecting line, roll the line into a coil approximately 2 feet wide,  
secure with the provided wire ties and store between the outdoor module and the  
wall. DO NOT cut or kink the connecting line!  
2.  
STEP 8 – Connect the electrical connector from the connecting  
line to outdoor module  
1. Connect the black colored electrical connector from the connecting line into the  
mating connector on the outdoor module. The connectors will snap into place with a  
click. (The plug can be removed by pushing in the side tabs on the plug and pulling  
the plug body down and out of the receptacle.)

Item #10  
2. Install the electrical cord retention bracket (Item #6 in the Accessories List) using  
two #8 x 3/4” screws (Item #10 in the Accessories List). The opening in the electrical  
cord retention bracket should fit over the cord. Do not pinch the cord in the bracket.  
3. Install the plastic cover (Item #2 in the Accessories List) as shown. There is one  
screw located on the lower right flange of the cover and one screw under the elec-  
trical connector access cover. Once secure, use enclosed screw (Item #10 in the  
Accessories List) to close the access door.

STEP 9 – Locate the condensate drain.  
The connecting line has a built in condensate line hose that removes the moisture collected from the indoor module.  
The hose must be located in an appropriate location for drainage. Because the hose relies on gravity to drain, it is  
important that the hose only points downward for the entire length of the hose.  
If the connecting line is rolled to store the excess line as shown in Step 6, the drain line may be removed from the  
connecting line as shown below and cut to an appropriate length.  
SCORE AND PEEL  
STEP 10 – Final Preparation.  
Using the supplied connecting line clips (Item #14 in the  
Accessories List), secure the connecting line to the interior and  
exterior walls as desired. 5 retaining clips are provided from the  
factory along with standard #8 x 1 1/2” screws and wall anchors.  
For installations with the connecting line going through the wall  
(option 1) use the supplied filler gasket (Item #7 in the Accessories  
List) to plug the hole around the connecting line in the wall  
opening. Additional sealing may be desired or necessary for  
proper weatherproofing.  
Once the connecting line is secure and Steps 1-9 are complete, you  
may plug in the Breeze system and enjoy your new air conditioner.
