I have an existing sleeve, do I need to remove the casing over the innards of the unit? The unit I removed didn't have this case and innards were out

The unit is sold without the sleeve (sleeve sold separately) with exterior dimensions of: Depth: 20-1/2" Height: 14-1/2" Width: 24". This model should slide right into an existing sleeve that meet the above dimensions. I'm not clear on what you mean by "casing over the innards". Please refer to page 1 of the installation guide. http://manuals.frigidaire.com/prodinfo_pdf/Edison/2020213a1639.pdf

Yes it can be removed. I no longer own the case as it was junk so I don't know what the inside dimensions are

Yes, this is a through the wall unit, designed to fit into a sleeve that is anchored to the wall. If this is not your intended use, I would suggest a model designed for window installation. A Sleeve is a rectangular metal casing that is designed to fit into a rectangular hole in an outside wall that is usually designed into the structure of the building or possibly created after construction. It holds the air conditioning unit in position.

You will have to take it off. I have the "factory" case which is very thin and I still have to take it off.

You would need to replace the case. This is a great case, I am totally impressed with it.

The unit itself does come out of the sleeve. The sleeve itself is open on the bottom not fully enclosed like others. I think there is 9 inches of wall clearance for the vents. (For in wall installation)

No you slide the grip over the plastic sleeve, just be careful with the glue

It can be removed but it's incredibly difficult to do so and you may tear the sleeve. It's not designed to come off - at least with any ease.

This comes with a sleeve. It can be mounted in a window OR through-wall. Not many units are like that. The sleeve is therefore kind of unique to this unit and almost certainly must be used. You may have to modify your wall opening, if that is what you are replacing. If it is going into a regular window, you should be able to easily remove the old unit and replace it with this one, but you will have to figure out how to seal it up (per the instructions).

Yes, in my case both came. However, it's worth to mention that if use the case the sleeve become useless. The thaichi with the case do not fit in the original sleeve. And in my opinion the case is absolutely necessary. Buy a new one a little bigger that you are fine. best! Fernando

Yes, mine has a gold over flap so we have to take ours out. I looked at the case you have and don't see why you would have to take it out. I hope this helps!!

I love the sleeve, however I do not use the plastic case on my mac ...so I am unsure. Wish I could be more help!

It is removable from its own sleeve. In other words you install the outer case or,sleeve and then slide the unit in. It is not designed for a standard dimension sleeve install. Friedrich does make a couple to fit in the standard 27 inch generic sleeve. The 15000 BTU unit is heavy. If you have a substantial wood window you could install it there. You need to be able to install this either through the wall ( I have some pics of how I framed mine) or in substantial window. It needs to be screwed in. Clamping the upper sash down on top of,it like a small 5000 BTU model isn't going to work, it's own case or,sleeve is substantial and I am happy with my install.

I have had success with the commuter case. The thick one needs to be removed.

No your going to have to remove the case. After removing the case it fits perfectly and it's pretty secure also.

Yes, you put it in with the sleeve on. The sleeve isn't meant to be removable.

I think it would be a rather tight fit with the case on it. I do not have a case on mine and have no problem but the fit is snug. Might not be the right sleeve for you.
