AVOID:
● heat sources, exhaust fans, etc. (Fig. 3)
● damp, humid or uneven locations.
DO:
● choose a place as cool as possible.
● choose a place that is well ventilated.
● install in a location where at least two sides are unob-
structed, so that the flow of air at the intake port or
exhaust port is not blocked, and so that sufficient
space is ensured for maintenance to be carried out
without trouble. In general the top also must be unob-
structed. (Figs. 4a and 4b)
● provide a solid base (level concrete pad, concrete
block, 4"
Ч 1'4" (10 Ч 40 cm) beams or equal), a mini-
mum of 4" (10 cm) above ground level to reduce
humidity and protect the unit against possible water
damage and decreased service life. (Figs. 5a and 5b)
