7.1 Positioning the air conditioner (P3)
To maintain the best performance from your air conditioner, prevent breakdowns or hazards, you
must position it correctly.Please follow the guidelines and instruction below in full, as failure to do so
could cause potential installation problems.
The air conditioner must be installed on an exterior wall that has access to the out side with a
minimum of 2 meters clearance to the outside.(See image P3)
The air conditioner must be fitted leaving room all around as illustrated in the paper template.
The wall on which the air conditioner is installed must be sturdy and able to withstand the weight for
the air conditioner.
After determining the best place for installation as described above. Please check to ensure that the
wall can be drilled in the chosen area without interfering with other structures or installations (beams,

piers, pipes, wires, etc.).
Please also ensure that there are no obstacles on the outside of the wall, which may obstruct air
circulation through the drilled holes, for example:(plants and their leaves, slats or panelling, drain
pipes, overflows and gratings,etc.). Any obstruction could interfere with the correct performances of
the air conditioner.
Fasten the template to the wall once the following guidelines have been thoroughly checked.
• Do not drill any holes until you are completely confident that there are no obstacles in the area you
wish to drill and there are no obstructions, which could be hidden by the construction of the wall, for
example: electrical wiring, water&gas pipes or supporting lintels or beams.
• Ensure that a spirit level is used, as the air conditioner must be level.
• Follow the installation instructions in full.
•Fasten the template to the wall taking care to check the distance from the floor or ceiling.
•Use a pilot drill to mark the centre of each core hole to be drilled.(See image P5)
7.3 Drilling the wall(P6,P7,P8)
Please note:If you are drilling the hole above ground floor level, please ensure that an area has been
secured and while the holes are drilled the outside area is supervised until drilling has been
secured and while the holes are drilled the outside area is supervised, until drilling has been
completed.
Intake and outlet holes
• This operation should be carried out using the proper tools ( diamond tip or core borers drills with
high twisting torque and adjustable rotation speed).
•Find the holes center drilled before, use a core boring head having a diameter of 200mm to drill the
two holes for intake and outlet the air.

twisting torque and adjustable rotation speed).
Note: It is recommended that the holes must have a slightly downward inclination of 3-5 degree to
prevent any backflow of water from the pipes.
