Planning for Condensation
The heat pump can produce a large amount of condensation. The amount of water depends on air
temperature and humidity.
Install the heat pump with enough height to allow for water drainage.
l
Mounting Pad Requirements
The heat pump's base must be installed on a flat and level surface that completely supports the entire base.
l
Build the heat pump pad out of concrete or other code-approved material.
l
Confirm the pad can support the weight of the heat pump.
l
Elevate the pad enough to allow for drainage.
l
Make sure the pad is flat and level.
l
Have the pad support the entire heat pump base in all directions.
l
Do not install the heat pump on soil or grass.
l
Do not allow the heat pump base to touch the building's foundation.
l
Do not place the heat pump directly on a concrete floor. This can cause noise to be transmitted to an occupied
l
space. If necessary install vibration dampers between the heat pump base and floor.
Equipment pad must meet all requirements of authorities having code-related jurisdiction.
l
Anchoring to Pad
Follow all applicable local, state, and national requirements regarding wind load anchoring.
l
The shipping brackets used to secure the heat pump to the pallet are approved mounting (hurricane) brackets.
