Site Selection
Review and consider all of the follow-
ing conditions before installation:
• Dimensions of the unit: 34.1 in.
(867 mm) x 19.4 in. (494 mm)
• For surface installation, the unit re-
quires a minimum of 2 wall studs in
order to ensure secure installation.
For other installation methods,
suitable framing is required.
There are three possible mounting
methods:
• Surface mount (pg. 10);
• Partial Recessed (pg. 11);
• Flush mount (pg. 12),
and any of these have the option of
