When installing the unit in a low-lying area, or a location that
is not level, use a raised concrete pad or concrete blocks to
provide a solid, level foundation.
This will prevent water damage and reduce abnormal vibration.
Properly insulate all cold surfaces to prevent “sweating.”
Cold surfaces such as un-insulated piping can generate condensate that
will drip and cause a slippery surface condition and/or water damage to
walls.
When installing the unit in a hospital, mechanical room, or

Inverter equipment, power generators, high-frequency medical equip-
ment, or radio communication equipment will cause the air conditioner to
operate improperly. The unit will also affect such equipment by creating
electrical noise that disturbs medical treatment or image broadcasting.
Do not use the product for special purposes such as
preserving foods, works of art, wine coolers, or other
precision air conditioning applications. The equipment is
designed to provide comfort cooling and heating.
There is risk of property damage.
Do not make refrigerant substitutions. Use R410A only.
If a different refrigerant is used, or air mixes with original refrigerant, the
unit will malfunction and be damaged.
Keep the unit upright during installation to avoid vibration or
water leakage.
Do not install the unit in a noise sensitive area.
When connecting refrigerant tubing, remember to allow for
pipe expansion.
Improper piping will cause refrigerant leaks and system malfunction.
Take appropriate actions at the end of HVAC equipment life
to recover, recycle, reclaim or destroy R410A refrigerant
according to applicable U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) rules.
Periodically check that the outdoor frame is not damaged.
There is a risk of equipment damage.
Install the unit in a safe location where nobody can step on or
fall onto it. Do not install the unit on a defective stand.

If the air conditioner is installed in a small space, take
measures to prevent the refrigerant concentration from
exceeding safety limits in the event of a refrigerant leak.
Consult the latest edition of ASHRAE (American Society of Heating,
Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning Engineers) Standard 15. If the
refrigerant leaks and safety limits are exceeded, it could result in per-
sonal injuries or death from oxygen depletion.
Install the unit in a safe location where nobody can step on or
fall onto it.
There is risk of physical injury or death.
Properly insulate all cold surfaces to prevent “sweating.”
Cold surfaces such as un-insulated piping can generate condensate
that could drip, causing a slippery surface that creates a risk of slipping,
falling, and personal injury.

GENERAL INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Selecting the Best Location for the Outdoor Unit
DANGER
• Do not install the unit in an area where combustible gas will generate, flow, stagnate, or leak. These conditions can cause a fire, resulting
in bodily injury or death.
• Do not install the unit in a location where acidic solution and spray (sulfur) are often used as it can cause bodily injury or death.
• Do not use the unit in environments where oil, steam, or sulfuric gas are present as it can cause bodily injury or death.
When deciding on a location to place the outdoor unit, be sure to choose an area where run-off water from defrost cycle will not accumulate and
freeze on sidewalks or driveways, which will create unsafe conditions. Properly install and insulate any drain hoses to prevent the hose from freez-
ing, cracking, leaking, and causing unsafe conditions from frozen condensate.
Install a fence to prevent vermin from crawling into the unit or unauthorized individuals from accessing it. Vermin and unauthorized individuals will

Select a location for installing the outdoor unit that will meet the following conditions:
• Where there is enough structural strength to bear the weight of the unit.
• A location that allows for optimum air flow and is easily accessible for inspection, maintenance, and service.
• Where piping between the outdoor unit and indoor unit is within allowable limits.
• Include space for drainage to ensure condensate flows properly out of the unit when it is in heating mode. Avoid placing the outdoor
unit in a low-lying area where water could accumulate.
• If the outdoor unit is installed in a highly humid environment (near an ocean, lake, etc.), ensure that the site is well-ventilated and has a lot
of natural light (Example: Install on a rooftop).
Do Not’s
• Where it will be subjected to direct thermal radiation from other heat sources, or an area that would expose the outdoor unit to heat or steam
like discharge from boiler stacks, chimneys, steam relief ports, other air conditioning units, kitchen vents, plumbing vents, and other sources
of extreme temperatures.
• :KHUHKLJKIUHTXHQF\HOHFWULFDOQRLVHHOHFWURPDJQHWLFZDYHVZLOODIIHFWRSHUDWLRQ
• Where operating sound from the unit will disturb inhabitants of surrounding buildings.
• Where the unit will be exposed to direct, strong winds.
• Where the discharge of one outdoor unit will blow into the inlet side of an adjacent unit (when installing multiple outdoor units).
Planning for Snow and Ice
To ensure the outdoor unit operates properly, certain measures are required in locations where there is a possibility of heavy snowfall or
severe windchill or cold:
1. Prepare for severe winter wind chills and heavy snowfall, even in areas of the country where these are unusual phenomena.
2. Position the outdoor unit so that its airflow fans are not buried by direct, heavy snowfall. If snow piles up and blocks the airflow, the sys-
tem will malfunction.
3. Remove any snow that has accumulated four (4) inches or more on the top of the outdoor unit.
4. In climates that can experience significant snow buildup, mount the outdoor unit on a raised, field-provided platform or stand. The raised
support platform must be high enough to allow the unit to remain above possible snow drifts, and must be higher than the maximum antici-
pated snowfall for the location.
5. Design the mounting base to prevent snow accumulation on the platform in front or back of the unit frame.
6. Provide a field fabricated snow protection hood to keep snow and ice and/or drifting snow from accumulating on the coil surfaces.
7. To prevent snow and heavy rain from entering the outdoor unit, install the condenser air inlets and outlets facing away from direct
winds.
8. Consider tie-down requirements in case of high winds or where required by local codes.

If the outdoor unit is installed between standard and minimum clearances, capacity decreases approximately 10%.
Minimum Clearance Requirements for Single Fan Outdoor Units
Proper clearance for the outdoor unit coil is critical for proper operation. When installing the outdoor unit, consider service, inlet and outlet,
and minimum allowable space requirements as illustrated in the diagrams below.
Specific clearance requirements in the diagram below are for single fan outdoor units. Figure 4 shows the overall minimum clearances that
must be observed for safe operation and adequate airflow around the outdoor unit.
When placing the outdoor unit under an overhang, awning, sunroof or other “roof-like structure”, observe the clearance requirements (as
shown in Cases 1 and 2) for height in relation to the unit. This clearance ensures that heat radiation from the condenser is not restricted
around the unit.
Adhere to all clearance requirements if installing the unit on a roof. Be sure to level the unit and ensure that the unit is adequately anchored.
Consult local codes for rooftop mounting requirements. To have successful service access to the outdoor unit, see Figure 4 for minimum
spacing. When installing multiple outdoor units, see Cases 4 and 5 in Figure 4 for correct spacing requirements. Outdoor unit fans draw air
from the back of the unit and discharge out the front. Place units back to back and front to front.

GENERAL INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Indoor Unit Mounting
1. The wall mounted indoor unit is shipped with the installation plate
attached to its back. To remove, Unscrew all screw / screws that
hold the installation plate to the back of the indoor unit. Number
of screws depends on the indoor unit model.
2. Confirm the location where the installation plate will be placed.
(Install the indoor unit on a strong, hard wall that can withstand
its weight.)
3. Align the centerline using a leveling tool. Measure the wall and
mark the centerline.
4. Attach the installation plate to the wall following the measure-
ments and marks. Use the type “A” screws that are factory-sup-
plied with the plate.
• Insert a screw into the center hole of the installation plate, and
tighten.
• Verify the installation plate is horizontal using a leveling tool.
• Tighten the remaining screws into the holes indicated on the
installation plate.
If the installation plate is not level, any condensate will not drain away
