(CONDENSER INSTALLATION)

A: Mounting Position:

These units should be mounted in a cabinet or area where they will not be susceptible to physical or water damage. There should be adequate ventilation of the compartment to allow the warm air to be expelled, but not so that it can be immediately drawn back in. The efficiency of the system depends mainly on the temperature of the air entering the condenser. Re-circulating the heated air back into the condenser in a sealed or poorly ventilated cabinet will result in poor system performance, as will drawing in air from a heated space, i.e. engine room.

B: Installation

These units are designed to be mounted on a surface where adequate ventilation can pass around the unit. This can either be from an adjacent cabinet or a custom “return air” grille no smaller than a 6” x 6” grill.

Mount the unit by securing with screws through the base, making sure that the condenser lines up with the ventilation hole. Best results are achieved with the unit if the condenser frame is sealed against the bulkhead with foam rubber tape or equivalent. The ventilation hole should be covered with a suitable grill to protect the condenser fins from damage, & for aesthetic appeal. The grill must be of sufficient size & construction so as not to impede air flow.
