The installation instructions require a minimum 12" to the wall. The unit was 5' from a property line and that is the minimum so it can't be moved to get clearance from the wall. The contractor had to replace this with a rectangular unit.

Honestly, after seeing your other photos, I'm surprised they didn't just remove a section of the wall.
