Choosing the installation site
Positions to avoid:
•Exposed to direct sun.
•Too close to heat sources.
•On humid walls or positions with water hazard, e.g. laundry premises.
•Where curtains or furniture may obstruct free air circulation.
Recommendations:
•Choose an area free from obstructions which may cause irregular air distribution and/or return.
•Check that the wall surface is flat enough to allow easy and safe installation.
The wall structure should be strong enough to carry the unit weight and avoid deformation, rupture or vibration during operation.
•Consider using an area where installation is easy.
•Choose a position that allows for the clearances required (see drawing).
•Look for a position in the room which assures the best possible air distribution.
•Install the unit in a position where condensate can easily be piped to an appropriate drain.
