Be sure the condensate hose discharges water properly. If connected incorrectly, it may cause leaks.

Do not install the unit in any place where oil can seep onto the units, such as table or seating areas in
restaurants, and so forth. For these locations or social venues, use specialized units with oil-resistant features
built into them. In addition, use a specialized ceiling fan designed for restaurant use. These specialized oil-
resistant units can be ordered for such applications. However, in places where large quantities of oil can splash
onto the unit, such as a factory, even the specialized units cannot be used. These products should not be
installed in such locations.

Do not position the condensate pipe for the indoor unit near any sanitary sewers where corrosive gases may
be present. If you do, toxic gases can seep into breathable air spaces and can cause respiratory injuries. If
