4.1 ODU Foundation
The concrete foundation of the ODU must be strong enough. Ensure that the drainage is
smooth and that the ground drainage or floor drainage is not affected.
Requirements on the concrete foundation are as follows:
A. The concrete foundation must be flat and have enough rigidity and strength to undertake
the unit’s weight during running. The height of the foundation is 200 mm to 300 mm,
which is determined based on the size of the unit.
B. Build a drainage ditch around the foundation to discharge the condensate water.
C. If the air conditioner is installed on the roof, check the intensity of the building and take
waterproof measures.
