Apparatus for securing a heat transfer unit to either a wall or a ceiling is disclosed. A fastening panel forming a portion of the heat transfer unit further defines a series of projecting tabs having narrowed tab inclined portions connecting the tabs to the rear panel. Mounting brackets are provided having mounting openings with both wide and narrow portions. The openings are designed such that the tab inclined portion is secured within the mounting opening narrow portion with the tab body abutting a portion of the mounting bracket to maintain the fan coil unit in a secured horizontal position. The bracket might additionally be utilized to secure the unit in a vertical position as when mounting the unit to a wall.
