Prevailing Winds
Normally wind baffles are not required for a outdoor unit.
However, in order to maximize reliability and performance,
the following best practices should be followed.
If unit coil cannot be installed away from prevailing winter
winds, some method of protecting the coil is recommended.
However, minimum clearances as reference in “Figure 2.
Outdoor Unit Clearances - Inches (mm)” on page 8
must be observed at all times.
Common application examples are:
• When prevailing winds are from the air inlet side, then
position the wind barrier a minimum of 12 inches (305
mm) from the unit as illustrated in “Figure 15. Wind
Barrier”
• When prevailing wind is into the discharge side, then
position the wind barrier a minimum 79 inches (2007
mm) from the front of the unit as illustrated in Figure
14. Wind Barrier”
• Outdoor unit can be installed in a dog house style
shelter as illustrated in “Figure 16. Dog House-Style
Shelter”
• Outdoor unit can be installed in a alcove or under
a roof overhang as illustrated in “Figure 17. Unit In-
stalled in Alcove”

Buried Refrigerant Pipe Protection
• All refrigerant lines must be insulated regardless of if
it is buried
• In addition to insulating each line of piping, buried lines
must rest inside a sealed, watertight conduit
• The conduit must be designed so it cannot collect and
retain water
Outdoor Unit Condensate Piping
Condensate formed during the heating and defrost
processes must be drained from heat pump units. Drain
holes are provided in the base of the units to ensure proper
drainage. Heat pumps must be raised when installed on a
concrete pad or the ground to allow drainage to occur. If
the heat pump unit is installed on wall mounting bracket,
insert the provided drain connector into one of the 1
inch (25 mm) drain holes and attached a field-provided
insulated drain hose to the connector. Use field-provided
rubber plugs to cover any unused drain holes as illustrated
in “Figure 18. Condensate Drain”.
