•Each side of the unit must be located at least 300mm from walls, pipes, or other obstructions for unrestricted air intake and service access.

WARNING

Do not install the unit within 1m of fossil fuel burning heaters. Air intake along the sides of this heat pump could disturb the combustion process of the unit, and could cause damage or personal injury.

•Mount the unit on a level, sturdy base, preferably a concrete slab or blocks. The size of the base should be not less than 1m by 1m.

•Completely isolate the base from the building foundation or wall to prevent sound or vibration transmission into the building. For this purpose, 4 black rubber sound isolation pads are included with the unit. These pads must be installed under the corners of the unit to reduce vibration and sound transmission to the base.

•If the unit is installed in an area known for water accumulation during periods of heavy rainfall, its supporting base must be high enough to keep it completely free of standing water at all times.
