Outdoor Unit Installation Drawings

Installation Guidelines

• Where a wall or other obstacle is in the path of outdoor unit’s intake or exhaust airflow, follow the 

installation guidelines below.

• For any of the below installation patterns, the wall height on the exhaust side should be 47-1/4 inch 

(1200mm) or less.

* Be sure to add the proper amount of additional refrigerant. 

Failure to do so may result in reduced performance.

Tape

Also insulate the connection on the outdoor unit.

Use tape or insulating material on all connections 
to prevent air from getting in between the copper 
piping and the insulation tube.
Be sure to do this if the outdoor unit is installed 
above.

Level mounting base 
(available separately)

If there is the danger of the unit falling 
or overturning, fix the unit with 
foundation bolts, or with wire or other 
means.

If the location does not have good 
drainage, place the unit on a level 
mounting base (or a plastic pedestal). 
Install the outdoor unit in a level 
position. Failure to do so may result in 
water leakage or accumulation.
