5.2 Installation
(1) Outdoor unit should be installed in a dry and well-ventilated environment.
(2) Outdoor units should be installed in a shaded place, or in a place not exposed to direct sunlight and
high temperature heat radiation place.
(3) The outdoor unit should be installed in a place where the noise and the air flow discharge during
operation will not affect the neighbours or the surrounding ventilation. The noise emitted on the
rear, left and right sides is 6 to 7 dB (A) higher than the noise measured in the nominal front of the
machine.
(4) The outdoor unit should be installed in the place where it is allowed by the public people.
(5) Check that the foundation on which the unit is installed is a levelled surface and strong enough to
hold the unit firmly.
(6) Do not install the outdoor unit in a place where dust or other debris can block the outdoor heat
exchanger.
(7) When the outdoor unit is installed in a place where there is heavy snowfall, install the snow cover at
the top of the outdoor unit and the inlet of the heat exchanger.
(8) When performing heating and defrosting operation, the outdoor unit discharges condensate. Provide
a suitable drain around the foundation. If the outdoor unit installed on the roof, balcony or corridor
and other places, prevent condensate from dropping to the people walking on the road. Otherwise
during the winter condensates freezes to ice and can block the road. If the unit is installed in such
place, provide an additional drain around the foundation.
(9) Do not install the outdoor unit in a place where the rain falls directly on the outdoor unit heat
exchanger or in the gap formed by the building space.
NOTE:
1. Do not install the outdoor unit in environments where there is high concentration of oil mist, corrosive gases, salt winds, and
harmful gases (sulphur, acid, alkaline).
2. Do not install the outdoor unit in places where electromagnetic radiation can directly interfere with the electric box of the
outdoor unit.
3. Outdoor unit installation should be as far as possible from the electromagnetic wave generating equipment, the distance
between the machine and the equipment should be at least 3 meters.
