Installation
Unit location
To achieve maximum cooling capacity, the installation location for the condensing unit should be carefully selected.
•
Install the condensing unit in such a way so that hot air ejected by the condensing unit cannot be drawn in
again (short circuit of hot discharge air). Allow sufficient space for maintenance around the unit.
•
Ensure that there is no obstruction to air flow into or out of the unit. Remove obstacles which block air intake
or discharge.
•
The location must be well ventilated, so the condenser fan could draw in and distribute plenty of air thus
lowering the condensing temperature and power consumption.
•
Air leaving the condenser should avoid facing prevailing wind, which impede air flow and thus causing high
condensing temperature.
•
To optimize the unit running conditions, the condenser coil must be cleaned at regular intervals.
•
The unit must be level in all directions.
•
It is recommended to install the unit on rubber grommet or vibration dampers.
•
Wall mounting on brackets is only suitable for models with single condenser fan.
Special attention should be given if unit installed near to the sea as this can reduce unit
lifespan due to corrosion of metal parts.
Installation clearances
•
The installation location should allow sufficient space for air flow and maintenance around the unit.
