Installation Location and Clearances
Selecting installation place
Choose a location that places the outdoor unit as
close to the indoor unit as possible. The maximum
unit separation and vertical lift (compressor above
the evaporator) must be taking into account. Do not
exceed allowable refrigerant line lengths.
Indoor unit
• Unit must be installed in a location that does not
obstruct the flow of air and ensures clearances are
maintained. (see installation drawing)
• The site must support the weight of the unit.
• The site must be easily accessible for cleaning,
replacement of the air filter, maintenance and
service.
• The indoor unit should be mounted as high up on
the wall toward the ceiling, leaving a minimum of 6”
(150mm) of space between the ceiling and the top of the
indoor unit. see installation drawing)
• Due to the possibility of electronic interference with
other devices, it is recommended that there should be at
least 3 ft (1 meter) between the unit and other devices/
appliances, such as televisions or radios.
• The unit should be installed away from possible
exposure to fire, smoke, of flammable gases and be
protected from direct sunlight (sunlight can interfere with
the signal between the unit and the remote control).
