2.3 Suggested Locations for Best Reliability

2.4 Cold Climate Considerations 

Ensure the top discharge area is unrestricted for 
at least five (5) feet above the unit.

Three (3) feet clearance must be provided in 
front of the control box (access panels) and any 
other side requiring service. 

It is not recommended to install in a location 
where noise may distract the building occu-
pants.  Some examples of these types of loca-
tions are sleeping quarters and by windows of 
a living area.  Please discuss location with the 
building owner prior to installation. 

NOTE:

  It is recommended that these precau-

tions be taken for units being installed in areas 
where snow accumulation and prolonged below 
freezing temperatures occur.

• 

Units should be elevated 3-12 inches above 
the pad or roof top, depending on local 
weather. This additional height will allow 
drainage of snow and ice melted during 
defrost cycle prior to its refreezing. Ensure 
that drain holes in unit base pan are not 
 obstructed preventing draining of defrost 
water.

• 

If possible, avoid locations that are likely to 
accumulate snow drifts. If not possible, a 
snow drift barrier should be installed around 
the unit to prevent a build-up of snow on the 
sides of the unit.

 

Avoid locations such as near windows where 
condensation and freezing defrost vapor can 
annoy a customer.

Position the outdoor unit a minimum of 12” from 
any wall or surrounding shrubbery to ensure 
adequate airflow.

Outdoor unit location must be far enough away 
from any structure to prevent excess roof runoff 
water or icicles from falling directly on the unit.
