Selecting the installation
location
Indoor unit
The indoor unit is designed for
horizontal wall-mounting above
doors. It can also be fitted high up
on walls (min. 1.75 m above the
level of the floor).
Outdoor component
The outdoor component is
designed for horizontal free-
standing use in outdoor areas. It
should be placed on level, flat and
firm ground. The unit should also
be secured to prevent toppling.
The outdoor unit can be installed
both inside and outside buildings.
In the case of outdoor installation,
please follow the instructions given
below to protect the unit against
the weather.
Wall breakthroughs
■ The wall breakthrough must
have a diameter of min. 70 mm
and a fall of 10 mm from inside
to outside.
■ We recommend that the
inside of the hole is padded or
lined, e.g. using a PVC tube,
to prevent the pipes being
damaged.
■ After installation has been
completed, use a suitable
sealing compound to close
off the wall breakthrough
(responsibility of customer) . Do
not use cement- or lime/based
materials!
Installation material
The indoor unit is fastened using
4 screws and a wall bracket. The
screws should be provided by the
customer.
The outdoor component is
fastened to the wall or ground
using 4 screws and a wall or floor
bracket.

The unit should be at least 10 cm
off the ground when mounted on
the roof or ground. An optional
floor bracket is available as an
accessory.
Sun
The liquefier on the outdoor
component radiates heat.
Exposure to direct sunlight will
further increase the temperature
of the fins and reduce the
heat output of the finned
heat exchanger. The outdoor
component should therefore be
installed as near as possible to
the north side of the building.
If necessary, take measures
to provide sufficient shade
(responsibility of customer). One
possible solution is to build a small
roof. These measures should not
affect the flow of warm outlet air.
Wind
If the unit is being installed in
windy areas, ensure that the
warm outlet air discharges in the
main wind direction. If this is not
the case it may be necessary to
install a windbreak (provided by
the customer). Ensure that the
windbreak does not adversely
affect the air intake to the unit.
Snow
The unit should be wall-mounted
in areas of heavy snowfall.
Installation should be at least
20 cm above the expected level
of snow to prevent snow from
entering the outdoor component.
An optional wall bracket is
available as an accessory.
