INDOOR UNIT INSTALLATION
STEP 1: SELECT INSTALLATION LOCATION
Before installing the indoor unit, you must choose an appropriate location. The following
standards should be met for an appropriate location for the unit:
• Good air circulation
• Convenient drainage
• Noise from the unit will not disturb other people
• Firm and solid - the location will not vibrate
• Strong enough to support the weight of the unit
• A location at least three feet (one meter) from all other electrical devices (e.g., TV, radio,
computer)
DO NOT install unit in the following locations:
• Near any source of heat, steam, or combustible gas
• Near flammable items such as curtains or clothing
• Near any obstacle that might block air circulation
• Near a doorway
• In a location subject to direct sunlight
Refer to the following diagrams to ensure proper distance from walls and ceiling:
NOTE
If there is no pre-existing refrigerant piping, when choosing a location, leave ample room
for a wall hole (see
Step 3: Drill Wall Hole for Connective Piping
) for the signal cable and
refrigerant piping that connect the indoor and outdoor units.
