Selection of the installation
location
The outdoor unit is designed for
horizontal free-standing use in
outdoor areas.
It should be placed on level,
flat and firm ground. The unit
should also be secured to prevent
toppling.
The outdoor unit can be installed
both inside and outside buildings.
In the case of outdoor installation,
please follow the instructions given
below to protect the unit against
the weather.
Rain
The unit should be at least 10 cm
off the ground when mounted on
the roof or ground.
An optional floor bracket is
available as an accessory.
Sun
The liquefier on the outdoor unit
radiates heat.
Exposure to direct sunlight will
further increase the temperature
of the fins and reduce the heat
output of the liquefier.
The outdoor unit should therefore
be installed as near as possible to
the north side of the building.
If necessary, take measures
to provide sufficient shade
(responsibility of customer). One
possible solution is to build a small
roof.
However, the discharging warm air
flow may not be affected by the
measures.
Wind
If the unit is being installed
in windy areas, ensure the air
discharges in the prevailing wind
direction. If this is not the case
it may be necessary to install
a windbreak (provided by the
customer) (Figure 2).
Ensure that the windbreak does
not adversely affect the air intake
to the unit.

Snow
The unit should be wall-mounted
in areas of heavy snowfall.
Installation should then be min.
20 cm above the expected level
of snow to prevent snow from
entering the outdoor unit (Fig 3).
An optional wall bracket is
available as an accessory.
Installation inside buildings
■
Ensure there is adequate heat
dissipation when placing the
outdoor unit in cellars, attics,
adjoining rooms or halls
(Figure 4) .
■
Install an additional fan with
a rated flow comparative to
that of the outdoor unit being
installed in the room. This
is used in conjunction with
ventilation ducts to compensate
any pressure losses
(Figure 4) .
■
Ensure a continuous and
unobstructed air flow from
outside, preferably using
sufficiently large air inlets
(Figure 4) .
■
Comply with any regulations
and conditions affecting
the statics of the building.
If necessary, fit acoustic
installation.
