5.2 Outdoor unit

 It is advisable to install the outdoor unit close to a wall, on a
foundation separate from the building with a minimum
clearance of 0.3 m on the intake side (Fig. 5.2 + Fig. 5.3).
If a canopy is mounted to protect from direct sunlight, rain

or snow it must not impede the heat exchange of the de-
vice.
In the case of a free-standing installation, the foundation is

to be connected on the intake side, flush with the device.
This will prevent snow from building up between the foun-
dation and the evaporator.
 The minimum clearances (Fig. 5.2) indicated must be ad-
hered to.
When selecting an installation location, it should be en-

sured where possible that persons are not going to be in-
convenienced by the circulation of warm/cold air or by
noise emissions.
The condensate tray offers various options for condensate

draining. In warmer regions, the condensate can drain from
the device freely. In regions with longer periods of frost,
controlled condensate draining is required.

If the unit is installed on a wall bracket, special attention must
be paid to separate any sound to the building.
If the wall bracket installation option is selected, the following
points must be observed:
Fit rubber buffers

Take the weight of the outdoor unit into account

 Ensure that the wall bracket is no higher than 1 m above
the ground
Ensure that minimum clearances are adhered to

When installing several outdoor units next to each other, the
specified distances must be observed. Furthermore, if several
outdoor units are installed, it must be ensured that the air inlets
and outlets do not affect any of the other units.
NOTE
Structural influences must be observed for installation close
to walls. No windows or doors should be present in the area
surrounding the air outlet of the fan.
NOTE
Installation in a hollow or in an inner courtyard is not
permitted because cooled air collects at ground level and is
drawn in again by the heat pump during extended periods of
operation.
CAUTION!
Incorrect installation, maintenance or repair may increase the
risk of cracks in the installed piping, resulting in property
damage.
CAUTION!
Improper installation of the unit may restrict operation of the
system.
