FOR THE INSTALLER: Location

A proper installation locates the machine indoors, but in a
place where the heat and noise it produces are not
objectionable.
Air cooled machines discharge hot air out the back. 6" of space
behind the machine is the minimum required for adequate
operation of an air cooled unit.
Space for maintenance access is also important. If two units
are placed side by side on a bin, side access becomes even
more important.
