Depending on the applicable legislation and the unit's
maximum working pressure (see "PS High" on the unit
name plate), larger piping thickness might be required.

Refrigerant piping insulation
▪ Use polyethylene foam as insulation material:
▪ with a heat transfer rate between 0.041 and 0.052 W/mK (0.035
and 0.045 kcal/mh°C)
▪ with a heat resistance of at least 120°C

If the temperature is higher than 30°C and the humidity is higher
than RH 80%, the thickness of the insulation materials should be at
least 20 mm to prevent condensation on the surface of the
insulation.

In heavy snowfall areas, it is recommended to provide at least
300 mm of free space below the unit. For other areas, it is
recommended to provide at least 150 mm of free space below the
unit.
In any case, make sure the unit is positioned at least 100 mm above
the maximum expected level of snow. If necessary, construct a
pedestal.
