3. SELECTING INSTALLATION SITE
(1) Select an installation site where the following conditions are fulfilled and that meets with your
customer’s approval.
•
In the upper space (including the back of the ceiling) of the indoor unit where there is no possible
dripping of water from the refrigerant pipe, drain pipe, water pipe, etc.
•
Where the wall is strong enough to bear the indoor unit weight.
•
Where sufficient clearance for installation and maintenance can be ensured.
(Refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2)
•
Where optimum air distribution can be ensured.
•
Where nothing blocks the air passage.
•
Where condensate can be properly drained.
•
Where the wall is not significantly tilted.
•
Where not exposed to combustible gases.
•
Where pipe between indoor and outdoor units is possible within the allowable limit.
(Refer to the installation manual of the outdoor unit.)
•
Install the indoor and outdoor units, power cable and transmission wiring, at least 1 m from TVs and
radios, to prevent distorted pictures and static. (Depending on the type and source of the electrical
waves, static may be heard even when more than 1 m away.)
•
Install the indoor unit no less than 2.5 m above the floor. Where unavoidably lower, take what measures
are necessary to keep hands out of the air inlet.
•
Where the cool (warm) air reaches all across the room.
CAUTION
•
The indoor and outdoor units and the power supply wiring and remote controller cord must be installed at
least 1m away from any televisions or radios. This is to prevent interference with picture and sound recep-
tion. (Interference may occur even at 1m away depending on the reception quality.)
•
If installing the wireless kit, the distance of the signal sent from the remote controller might be shorter if
there are fluorescent lights which are electrically started (such as with inverters, rapid starters, etc.) in the
room. The indoor unit should be installed as far away from fluorescent lights as possible.
(2) Consider whether the place where the unit will be installed can support the full weight of the unit,
and reinforce it with boards and beams, etc. if needed before proceeding with the installation.
Also, reinforce the place to prevent vibration and noise before installing.
(The installation pitch can be found on the paper pattern for installation (3), so refer to it when con-
sidering the necessity for reinforcing the location.)
(3) The indoor unit may not be directly installed on the wall. Use the attached installation panel (1)
before installing the unit.
