temperature of the air being blown out, with the risk of
freezing plants in its path).
• The surface supporting the outdoor unit should:
- be permeable (soil, gravel, etc),
- support its weight easily,
- provide a solid fixing and
- not transmit any vibration to the dwelling.
(Anti-vibratory blocks are available as an option).
• The wall bracket can not be used in conditions likely to
transmit vibrations, ground position is preferred.
2 4 2 Outdoor unit positioning
The outdoor unit must be raised at least 50 mm above
ground level. In areas prone to snow, this height should
be increased but should not exceed 1,5 m (
figure 12
).
- Fasten the outdoor unit by means of screws and
rubber tightening or toothed lock washers to avoid
their coming loose.
2 4 3 Condensate drain hose
(see
figure 12
).
If the use of a discharge pipe is imperative:
- Use the elbow provided (
C
) to connect a 16 mm
diameter hose for draining away the condensate.
- Use the stopper or stoppers provided (
B
) to block the
opening of the condensate tank.
Allow for the condensate to flow away under the force of
gravity (waste water, rain water, gravel bed).
"
If the installation is made in an area where
the temperature can be lower than 0°C for
a long period, provide the drain pipe with a
trace resistance to avoid it icing up The trace
resistance must heat not only the pipe but
also the bottom of the appliance’s condensate
collection tank
