2. Selecting the Installation Site
Indoor Unit
AVOID:
●areas where leakage of flammable gas may be expected.
●places where large amount of oil mist exist.
●direct sunlight.
●locations near heat sources which may affect performance of the unit.
●locations where external air may enter the room directly. This may cause “sweating” on the air discharge ports, causing them to spray or drip.
●locations where the remote control unit will be splashed with water or affected by dampness or humidity.
●installing the remote control unit behind curtains or furniture.
●locations where the receiver in the indoor unit is exposed to the inverter lamp light. Faulty operation of the unit occurs.
DO:
●select an appropriate position from which every corner of the room can be uniformly cooled.
●select a location where the ceiling is strong enough to support the weight of the unit.
●select a location where tubing and drain pipe have the shortest run to the outdoor unit.
●allow room for operation and maintenance as well as unrestricted air flow around the unit. (Fig.
●install the unit within the maximum elevation difference above or below the outdoor unit and within a total tubing length from the outdoor unit as detailed in Table
●allow room for mounting the remote control unit about 3 ft. off the floor, in an area that is not in direct sunlight nor in the flow of cool air from the indoor unit.
NOTE
Air delivery will be degraded if the distance from the floor to the ceiling is greater than 10 ft..
