Installation instructions
Outdoor unit installation
1. Install the outdoor unit
•Outdoor unit must be mounted on a solid, level foundation. If possible, affix unit using bolts to the foundation.
•If installing on a wall or structure, be sure that construction of the wall or structure can support the weight of the unit and that consideration is given to the integrity of the construction. Since the unit can vibrate during operation, movement of sound of the unit should be considered when installing the unit.
•Since the unit discharges air during operation, plants or other obstruction should be free and clear of the unit to ensure proper operation.
•Owners should advised to avoid lawn mowers or other machinery discharge toward the unit, as debris can damage the finned coil surfaces and reduce effciency of the unit.
2. Outdoor unit refrigeration line connection
•Remove the valve caps at the outdoor unit where f\refrigeration tubing will be connected.
•Connect the refrigeration tubing using flaring techniques described earlier in the indoor unit installation. Be sure to use required torque.
Attention
•A baffle is needed when installation is in locations near the sea or areas with strong winds.
•Be sure that unit airflow is not obstructed in any way or that reciculation of discharge air does not occur.
