possible IAQ contaminant sources from growing, the
unit should be stored indoors. If indoor storage is not
possible, the following provisions for outdoor storage
must be met:
•
Place the unit(s) on a dry surface or raise above the
ground to assure adequate air circulation beneath
the unit.
•
Cover the unit(s) with a water proof tarp to protect
them from the elements.
•
Make provisions for continuous venting of the
covered units to prevent moisture from standing on
the unit(s) surfaces. Wet interior unit insulation can
become an amplification site for microbial growth
(mold) which has been determined to be a cause of
odors and serious health related indoor air quality
problems.
•
Store units in the normal UP orientation to maintain
oil in the compressor.
•
Horizontal units may be stacked no more than three
units high. Do not stack the vertical unit
configurations.
