• Ensure that the clearance around the back of the unit
is more than 30cm and more than 30cm on the left side.
The front of the unit should have more than 2.0m
of clearance and the connection side (right side) should
have more than 60cm of clearance.
• Do not place animals and plants in the path of the air
inlet or outlet.
• Take the air conditioner weight into account and select
a place where noise and vibration will not be an issue.

to level the unit.
• Ensure the roof structure and anchoring method are
adequate for the unit location.
• Consult local codes regarding rooftop mounting.
• If the outdoor unit is installed on roof structures or
external walls, this may result in excessive noise and
vibration, and may also be classed as a non serviceable
installation.

or around the unit.
• Make sure that condensation drainage can be
conveniently routed away.
• Do not install near a doorway.
• Ensure that the space on the left and right of the unit
is more than 12cm.
• Use a stud finder to locate studs to prevent unnecessary

• The indoor unit should be installed on the wall at
a height of 2.0m or more from the floor.
• The indoor unit should be installed allowing a minimum
clearance of 15cm from the ceiling.
• Any variations in pipe length will/may require adjustment
to refrigerant charge.
• There should not be any direct sunlight. Otherwise,
the sun will fade the plastic cabinet and affect its
appearance. If unavoidable, sunlight prevention should
be taken into consideration.
Outdoor unit
More than 2.0m
More than 30cm

Piping length of 5m or more
caution
Capacity is based on standard length and maximum
allowance length is on the basis of reliability.
Oil trap should be installed every 5~7 metres.
When the connecting pipe is longer than 5 metres,
additional refrigerant should be added into the unit
according to the above table through the service port
on the “LO” valve on the outdoor unit.
