 CAUTION

•  Do not install the outdoor unit in two-stage where the drain water could freeze. 

Otherwise the drainage from the upper unit may form ice and cause a malfunction of 
the lower unit.

•  In the area with heavy snowfall, if the intake and outlet of outdoor unit is blocked with 

snow, it might become dif

fi

 cult to get warm and it is likely to cause of the breakdown. 

Please construct a canopy or baf

fl

 e board (local con

fi

 gured).

2 in (50 mm) 
or more

If the unit is installed in a region that is exposed to 
high winds, freezing conditions, freezing rain, snow 
fall or heavy snow accumulation, take appropriate 
measures to protect it from those elements.
To ensure stable operation, the outdoor unit must 
be installed on a raised stand or rack, at or above 
the anticipated snow depth for the region.
The installation of snow hoods and drift prevention 
fencing is recommended when blowing and drifting 
snow is common to the region.

3.4. Drain installation *

* : Excluding the cold region model.

 CAUTION

When the outdoor temperature is 32°F (0°C) or less, do not use the accessory drain 
pipe. If the drain pipe are used, the drain water in the pipe may freeze in extreme cold 
weather. (Reverse cycle model only)

Since the drain water 

fl

 ows out of the 

outdoor unit during heating operation, 
install the drain pipe and connect it to a 
commercial 5/8 in (16 mm) hose.
When installing the drain pipe, plug all the 
holes other than the drain pipe mounting 
hole in the bottom of the outdoor unit with 
putty so there is no water leakage.

 CAUTION

Do not install the outdoor unit in two-stage where the drain water could freeze.
Otherwise the drainage from the upper unit may form ice and cause a malfunction of 
the lower unit.

NOTES:

•  If the space is larger than stated above, the condition will be the same as when there is 

no obstacle.

•  When installing the outdoor unit, be sure to open the front and left side to obtain better 

operation ef

fi

 ciency. 

3.3. Mounting the unit

 

•  Install 4 anchor bolts at the locations indicated with arrows in the 

fi

 gure.

•  To reduce vibration, do not install the unit directly on the ground. Install it on a secure 

base (such as concrete blocks).

•  The foundation shall support the legs of the unit and have a width of 2 in (50 mm) or 

more.

•  Depending on the installation conditions, the outdoor unit may spread its vibration 

during operation, which may cause noise and vibration. Therefore, attach damping 
materials (such as damping pads) to the outdoor unit during installation.

•  Install the foundation, making sure that there is enough space for installing the 

connection pipes.

•  Secure the unit to a solid block using foundation bolts. (Use 4 sets of commercially 

available M10 bolts, nuts, and washers.)

•  The bolts should protrude 1 in (20 mm). (Refer to the 

fi

 gure.)

•  If overturning prevention is required, purchase the necessary commercially available 

items.
