When installing...
... in a wall: Make sure the wall is strong enough to hold the unit’s weight. It may be necessary to construct a
strong wood or metal frame to provide added support.
... in a room: Properly insulate any tubing run inside a, room to prevent “sweating” that can cause dripping and
water damage to wall and floors
... in moist or uneven locations: Use a raised concrete pad or concrete blocks to provide a solid, level foundation
for the outdoor unit. This prevents water damage and abnormal vibration.
... in an area with high winds: Securely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and a metal frame. Provide a
suitable air baffle.
... in a snowy area (for Heat Pump Model)- Install the outdoor unit on a raised platform that is higher than drifting
snow. Provide snow vents.
When connecting refrigerant tubing
• Keep all tubing runs as short as possible.
• Use the flare method for connecting tubing.
• IMPORTANT: Check carefully for leaks before starting the test run.
When servicing
• Turn the power OFF at the main power box(mains) before opening the unit to check or repair electrical parts and
wiring.
• Keep your fingers and clothing away from any moving parts.
• Clean up the site after you finish, remembering to check that no metal scraps or bits of wiring have been
left inside the unit being serviced.
