maintenance.
•Select outlet location of piping from
indoor unit which allows easy access to
the ends of refrigerant piping lines to
facilitate refrigerant leak testing and to
facilitate service and maintenance.
•Select installation location so that the
wall hole required to pass the outlet
refrigerant piping lines, electrical cables
and condensate drain line from indoor
unit can be in one of the following Four
outlet locations as indicated by (1), (2),
(3) and (4)
Avoid installation location which can lead to
excessive length of refrigerant piping lines
between indoor and outdoor units
Avoid installation location which can lead to
excessive height difference between indoor
and outdoor units

9. SELECTING INSTALLATION LOCATION OF OUTOOR UNIT
9.1 INSTALLATION LOCATIONS
The outdoor unit can be installed in any outside location, on a wall, on a roof or on a ground level.
9.2 CONSIDERATIONS FOR SELECTING INSTALLATION LOCATIONS
Avoid installation location which can lead
to excessive distance between outdoor
and indoor units to avoid alteration on
system cooling performance.
Avoid installation location which can lead
to excessive height difference between
indoor and outdoor units to avoid
alteration on system cooling performance.
Avoid installation location which can lead
to unnecessary turns and bends in the
refrigerant piping lines connecting
outdoor unit with indoor unit.
Avoid installation location where there are
obstacles near the air outlet or inlet that
may affect air flow and performance of the
unit
Avoid multiple unit installation with units
facing each other and blowing discharged
air into each other.
