Abstract
An HVAC system includes a front side access panel, an HVAC unit, a mounting sleeve, and a back side grille. The mounting sleeve and the HVAC unit are configured to fit within the preexisting framing of a building, and in particular to be mounted in a wall, between pre-existing studs, of a room. The HVAC unit includes an evaporator section, a mechanical section, and a condenser section. The HVAC system is optimized to maximize space utilization and support efficient installation and servicing while minimizing product intrusion into living space. The evaporator section includes a heat exchanger, an air mover, and electrical circuitry. The air mover and the heat exchanger can have a variety of different configurations, all designed for implementation within the limited confines between preexisting studs of the wall. The heat exchanger can include a coil assembly having an evaporator coil and a plurality of fins.
