The screws that came with unit don't fit. Also, the holes on top of AC are not the same size as the bar. Has anyone run into this problem?

Sorry to hear that they screwed up your order. Lets hope everything will be ok. They are good A/C's. I had purchased 2 12,000 units for rest of the house since they are 110/120 and not 240. The units were originally Air Temp made by Chrysler. I was trying to locate Air Temp but it kept coming up SPT. I guess they merged companies.

I have not had this problem at all. Had put it in where I had one previously used some of the other stuff with this unit. Overall it is a very good product cool more in my house than the last one I had.

Everything I got with the A/C unit fit just right. No problem. My son came over and installed it where we had an old A/C and we just set it on the frame to support it.

I didn't have a problem. I read the directions and everything worked fine. Good luck!

Its all about the screws you use. Normally the screws they include are not metal screws. But if you exchange them with metal screws I can't it being a problem. The unit itself has holes for screws.

The most important issue is the screw mount distances. Just replaced on a 52" fan.

Maybe. My unit is new and I haven't needed to look into that. But I can see that there are 4 screws on the backside of the unit. If you have a unit already, open it up and take a look inside.

You have to disassemble the bar. The ends pop off, and you will see two screws. Remove these, and the bar comes off. Remove the old piece and place the new one on the bar. Reverse the process to reinstall the bar.

Just has cheap hardware, if I were you, I'd go to Home Depot or lowes with the bolt & wing nut that comes with the unit & then install the better quality hardware you bought & this thing will not only fit, but not move at all. Additionally your pet won't be able to move the horizontal bars

No, the bar is useless. I tried super glue, duct tape and nothing works. I was hoping I could get a replacement part but haven't gotten a message back from the supplier.

The motor is larger so your bolts have to go into a larger frame, which my unit had pre-stamped into the frame of the outside airconditioner. It works the same once installed and looks like it is made much better, higher quality.

The AC unit is 14 1/2 wide , it will fit, the only problem you will have is with the trimming it comes with, you can make your own, it will work.

the intern that put it together had a bit of a problem but then she did changed the way she was inserting the screws, so try changing how you inserted the screws. i almost returned it also.

Hi Steve,I bought it and fixed it with the help of a mechanic. Not sure if he used the same screws or used from his collection. I apologize that I couldn't help you with.Manoje

There is an allen-screw holding the base to the bar, if that is the part you say is loose simply remove it, tighten it an re-install. If you have mounted it on a soft wall covering, like sheet-rock, and not installed long screws into a wall stud you will have to move it up or down and re install and fill the old holes. It will eventually loosen again, unless you mount it on something solid, or place a wood brace behind the sheetrock.

It works with the round knob kind of AC not the up down slider kind. And I left the center screw in the cover and just let it hang and worked around it. There was plenty of room to get to it.

should fit unit comes with a second mount option that you can more permanently mount with screws

There have been no responses to your post, but did you ever find an answer to this question? I have the same problem with large moulding above my doors. I purchased a Gold's Gym version of the bar and it would not fit!

Check the power cable in the back. It does not fit quite as snugly as it should on this unit.

I replaced an old (different make) unit that was not the same dimensions. My contractor did an excellent job and I have no problems. I would suggest that you find a good "remodeler". If the dimensions are the same I should think there would be no problems.
