Few tips on selecting installation place... Indoor unit Do not expose the indoor unit to heat or steam. Select a place where there are no obstacles in front or around the unit. Make sure that condensation drainage can be conveniently routed away. Do not install near a doorway. Ensure that the space on the left and right of the unit is more than 12cm. Use a stud finder to locate studs to prevent unnecessary damage to the wall. The indoor unit should be installed on the wall at a height of 2.0 metres or more from the floor. The indoor unit should be installed allowing a minimum clearance of 15cm from the ceiling. Any variations in pipe length will/may require adjustment to refrigerant charge. Outdoor unit If an awning is built over the outdoor unit to prevent direct sunlight or rain exposure, make sure that heat radiation from the condenser is not restricted. Ensure that the clearance around the back of the unit is more than 30cm and left side is more than 30cm. The front of the unit should have more than 200cm of clearance and the connection side (right side) should have more than 60cm of clearance. Do not place animals and plants in the path of the air inlet or outlet. Take the air conditioner weight into account and select a place where noise and vibration will not be an issue. Select a place so that the warm air and noise from the air conditioner do not disturb neighbors. If the outdoor unit is installed on a roof structure, be sure to level the unit. Ensure the roof structure and anchoring method are adequate for the unit location. Consult local codes regarding rooftop mounting. If the outdoor unit is installed on roof structures or external walls, this may result in excessive noise and vibration, and may also be classed as a non serviceable installation.
