size. First, measure the distance from inside one window channel to the inside of the other channel and subtract l/4�. Now subtract the width of the air conditioner and divide by 2. This will give you the width to cut each filler board. Be sure to cut the filler boards on the sides opposite the holes. Because the filler boards will be equal in width, they will automatically center your air conditioner in your window.
