Abstract: The enclosure (50) has an aesthetic panel (52) extending between sidewalls (56, 60). The enclosure (50) is configured to be detachably secured directly over a wall-mounted air conditioner (40) without impeding air flow through the air conditioner (40) and without impeding air conditioner controls (48, 49). A wall mounting system (100) provides for hinged pivoting of the enclosure (50) away from the air conditioner (40) for servicing the air conditioner (40), and for maintaining the enclosure (50) in unchanging, proper alignment by having a top side wall brace (63) of the enclosure (50) rest upon a docking catch (144) of the wall mounting system (100). The aesthetic panel (52) and side walls (51, 60) may have a variable wood grain appearance or be made of solid wood.

Abstract: The two-section wooden enclosure (10) has a first section (40) including a top panel (18) secured to a plurality of mounting brackets (42A, 42B), and a second section (60) including a front panel (20) having a first side panel (22) and a second side panel (26) secured to opposed side ends (24, 28) of the front panel (20). The first section (40) is secured to a hydropic finned tube heater (59) and a vertical wall (12). The first and second side panels (22, 26) of the second section (60) are secured to the vertical wall (12) so that the front panel (20) is adjacent and below the top panel (18) to cover the finned tube heater (59). The second section (60) may be removed from the vertical wall (12) without removal of the first section (40) from the vertical wall (12).
