Selection of the installation
location
Indoor unit
The indoor unit is designed for
horizontal wall installation above
doors. However, it can also be
used towards the top of any wall
(min. 1.75 m above the surface of
the floor).
Outdoor component
The outdoor component is designed
for horizontal installation on a
base in outdoor areas. It should
be placed on level, flat and firm
surface. The unit should also be
secured to prevent it from tipping
over. The outdoor component can
be set up outside as well as inside
a building. For external installation,
please observe the following notes
to protect the unit from weather
conditions.
Wall openings
■ A wall opening of at least
70 mm diameter and 10 mm
slope from the inside to the
outside must be made for each
indoor unit.
■ We recommend that the inside
of the opening is padded or
lined, e.g. using a PVC pipe,
to prevent the lines being
damaged.
■ After installation, the wall
opening should be closed off
with a suitable sealant. Do not
use materials containing cement
or lime!
Installation materials
The indoor unit is attached using
a wall bracket and 4 threaded screws
(provided by the customer).
The outdoor component is
attached with 4 screws and a wall
bracket to the wall or fixed by
a floor bracket to the ground.

The unit should be at least 10 cm
off the ground when mounted on
the roof or ground. A floor bracket
is available as an accessory.
Sun
The condenser on the outdoor
component gives off heat.
Exposure to direct sunlight further
increases the temperature of the
fins and reduces the heat released
by the finned heat exchanger.
The outdoor component should
be installed on to the north
side of the building whenever
possible. If necessary, take
measures to provide sufficient
shade (responsibility of customer).
This can be accomplished with a
small roof. However, the measures
taken should not affect the flow of
warm outlet air.
Wind
If the unit is being installed in
windy areas, ensure that the
warm outlet air discharges in the
direction of the prevailing wind.
If this is not the case it may be
necessary to install a windbreak
(provided by the customer). 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 at least
20 cm above the expected level
of snow to prevent snow from
entering the outdoor component.
An optional wall bracket is
available as an accessory.
