REMKO RXS xxx H - Manual (Page 10)

The outdoor component 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. Increasing the
installation height will also increase
the heat output by the heating/
cooling unit.
An optional floor bracket is
available as an accessory.
Sun
The liquefier on the outdoor
component radiates heat.
Exposure to direct sunlight will
further increase the temperature
of the fins and reduce the heat
output of the liquefier.
The outdoor component should
therefore be installed as near as
possible to the north side of the
building.
If necessary, take measures to
provide sufficient shade. 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 that the
warm outlet air discharges in the
main wind direction. If this is not
the case, it may be necessary to
install a windbreak (provided by
the customer) (Fig. 2). Ensure that
the windbreak does not adversely
affect the air intake to the unit.
Installation inside buildings
■
Ensure there is adequate heat dissipation when placing the outdoor
component in cellars, attics, adjoining rooms or halls (Figure 4).
■
Install an additional fan with a rated flow comparative to that of
the outdoor component being installed in the room. This is used in
conjunction with ventilation ducts to compensate any pressure losses
(Figure 4)
.
Snow
The unit should be wall-mounted
in areas of heavy snowfall.
Installation should be at least
20 cm above the expected level
of snow to prevent snow from
entering the outdoor component
(Fig 3)
. An optional wall bracket is
available as an accessory.

Selecting the installation
location
The outdoor component is
designed for horizontal and
upright installation in outdoor
areas. It should be placed on level,
flat and firm ground. The unit
should also be secured to prevent
toppling.
