Installation and Maintenance

NOTE: 

These appliances are designed for indoor 
installation only.
The indoor units can be installed in one of the 
up

right

, horizontal left

,

 or horizontal right 

orientations as shown in 

the 

Figures below. 

Minor field modifications are necessary to 
convert to horizontal 

left

.

nstallation

Before 

selecting

 the installation site, obtain 

all required

 

permissions and follow the below parameters:

·

Optim

al

 air distribution is ensured.

·

The air path is not blocked

 or obstructed

.

·

Condensation 

is able to

 drain properly.

·

Ensure sufficient clearance for 

future 

maintenance and

 

servicing.

·

Piping between the indoor and outdoor units should

 

be

 

within the

allowable limits. (Refer to the installation

 

of

 

the outdoor unit

manual

)

·

The indoor unit, outdoor unit, power supply wiring

,

 

and

transmission wiring should be kept at least 

3 feet

 away

 

from

televisions and radio, which prevents

 

image

 

interference and

noise in those electrical

 

appliances.(Noise may be generated

depending on the conditions

 

under which the electric wave is

generated, even i

f

 

this 

distance is maintained.)

·

Do not install the indoor unit in a machinery shop or

 

kitchen

where vapor

s

 from oil

s

 or 

any

 mist

s

 

can reach 

the

 

indoor unit.

Any

 oil

s

 will 

collect

 on the heat

 

exchanger,

 

thereby reducing the

performance

 

of

 

the

 

indoor

 

unit,

 

and

 

may deform

,

 and in the

worst case,

 

break the

 

plastic parts of the indoor unit.

·

When the unit is installed in a hot and humid place, it is

recommended to insulate the cabinet exterior and to use

auxiliary drain pans.

·

If installed above a finished living space, an auxiliary drain

pan(as required by many building codes) must be installed under

the entire unit, and its condensate drain line must be routed to a

location such that the user will see the condensate discharge.

The u

p

right

 installation method is selected by default.

 

When the unit is horizontal

-

right mounted, rotate it to 

the right 

by

 90 degrees, as shown in

 the

 image

 for

 

horizontal

-

right installation

 (2.3b)

.

When the unit is horizontally

-left 

mounted

 (2.3c)

, the 

following steps are required.

 

1). Disassemble the lower panel and the sealed plate

.

 

2). Disassemble the retaining clip

s

 for the evaporator 

 so that the evaporator can be pulled out along the 

     lead rail easily

.

 

3). Rotate the evaporator 

by

 180 degrees and insert it 

     into the upper side of the lead rail

.

4). Rotate the unit to the left 

by

 90 degrees, as shown 

     in

 the

 image

2.4 Air Duct

Field  duct  work  must  comply  with  the  National  Fire 
Protection  Association  NFPA  90NFPA  90B

,

  and  any 

applicable local ordinance

s

.

Do not, under any circumstances, connect return duct 
work to any other heat producing device such as

 a

 

fireplace insert, stove, etc. Unauthorized use of such 
devices may result in fire, carbon monoxide poisoning, 
explosion, personal injury or property damage.
