Choosing the Appropriate Outdoor Unit
After all indoor units are properly sized to offset the applicable loads in each zone, select the outdoor unit by choosing a size that meets
both the load-cooling requirement, and offsets the sum of the heating load. Then, the system's combination ratio should be evaluated and
confirmed it is within the allowable range (the combination ratio compares the nominal capacity of all connected indoor units to the nominal
capacity of the outdoor unit serving them). The total nominal capacity of all indoor units should be smaller than the total nominal capacity of
the outdoor unit. If the combination ratio is more than 100%, the designer is undersizing the outdoor unit relative to the combined nominal ca-
pacity of the connected indoor units. In some designs, oversized indoor units may be unavoidable in the case where the smallest size indoor
unit available from LG is larger than what is necessary to satisfy the zone load. This scenario may also occur when an indoor unit selection
one size down from the selected unit is slightly short of fulfilling the design load requirements, and the designer must choose the next larg-
est size unit. Sometimes it is recommended to choose a larger capacity outdoor unit if the installation space is big enough. Also, it may be
prudent to oversize the outdoor unit to address those times when the weather conditions may exceed the design conditions, to minimize the
possibility of ventilation systems that causes the space temperature to drift outside design parameters, or when the indoor unit's entering air
temperature falls outside the approved design temperature range.
