HEATING WHEN AC IS PLACED OUTDOORS
(DUCTING THE HOT AIR INTO THE ROOM)
Connect the air hose to the hot air outlet of the air conditioner after exchanging the grills if
necessary. The air hose will send hot air into the room, while the front grills will expel cold air.
The unit is placed outside the room to be heated. Outdoor operation is ideal for the autumn
period in which outside temperatures do no fall below 10°C. (If the outside temperature is
likely to fall below 10°C continuously, we would recommend indoor operation).
The hose can be vented via a tilted window, a door or wall aperture. Make sure that no cold
air from outside can enter the room. For effective heating, we recommend through the wall
venting. Set the function to
“
Heating
”
. The desired temperature range is selectable between
15°C and 25°C.
Note:
After switching on, the compressor will only start after a 3 minute delay. For full
heating effect please allow a further 10 minutes of operation.
Using the Airflex Comfort Kit will enable wired or wireless control of the air conditioner from
within the room to be heated.
DEHUMIDIFICATION
The Airflex 15 is a powerful commercial grade dehumidifier with an extraction rate of 70 litres
per day at 80%RH. Humidity is extracted from the air, collected in the water tank and
discharged via a condensation drain pipe. We recommend using a large bucket or running
the condensate drain pipe to an external drain. Please note the condensate drain is gravity
fed, and so the pipe must run downhill for drainage to occur. Alternatively it is possible to
connect an inline pump for sending the condensate longer distances or uphill.
When using the air conditioner in dehumidify mode, the exhaust hose is not required. Set
the function to “
Dehumidify
”. As the unit does not have a humidistat we recommend
using the inbuilt timer to control the length of operation.
