10.2.1  How to Fix Installation Plate 

The mounting wall is strong and solid enough to prevent it from the vibration. 
 
The centre of installation plate should be at more 
than 450 mm at right and left of the wall. 
 
The distance from installation plate edge to 
ceiling should more than 

1

75mm. 

 
From installation plate left edge to unit’s left side 
is 135 mm. 
 
From installation plate right edge to unit’s right 
side is 1

65

 mm. 

 

B  

: For left side piping, piping connection for liquid should be about 155 mm from this line. 

 

: For left side piping, piping connection for gas should be about 185 mm from this line. 

 

1  Mount the installation plate on the wall with 5 screws or more. (If mounting the unit on the wall, consider 

using anchor bolts.) Always mount the installation plate horizontally by aligning the marking-off line with 
the thread and using a level gauge. 

2  Drill the piping plate hole with ø70 mm hole-core drill. 

 

Put measuring tape at position as shown in the diagram above. The hole centre is 
obtained by measuring the distance namely 115 mm and 120 mm for left and right hole 
respectively. 

 

Drill the piping plate hole at either the right or left and the hole should be slightly slanted 
to the outdoor side. 

 

10.2.2  To Drill a Hole in the Wall and Install a Sleeve of Piping 

Insert the piping sleeve to the hole. 

Fix the busing to the sleeve. 

Cut the sleeve until it extrudes about 15mm from the wall  
 

 

 

Finish by sealing the sleeve with putty or caulking compound at the 
final stage.  

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Caution 

When the wall is hollow, please be sure to use the sleeve for tube 
ass’y to prevent dangers caused by mice biting the connecting 
cable.
