DUCTWORK INSTALLATION Bottom Return Air Installation (18,000 BtuH Only) The 18,000 BtuH size duct can be converted from a rear to bottom side return. More noise is produced with the bottom return air location than the rear return air, so it is suggested to provide a duct silencer to minimize the noise.The default location of the return air connection is at the rear.
POWER AND WIRING INSTALLATION W RNING 1. Before obtaining access to terminals, all electrical supply circuits must be disconnected. 2. Always use an independent circuit and provide an independent circuit breaker to supply power to the system. 3. Use a circuit breaker with adequate capacity to meet the requirements of the total system. 4.

TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM CAUSE/SOLUTION Water leakage from the Cause: It is normal for the outdoor unit to generate condensate water in the outdoor unit. reverse cycle heating and defrost mode. Solution: This is normal. No action is required. Cause: While it is normal for the system to generate condensate water in cooling Water leaking from the indoor mode, it is designed to drain this water via a condensate drain system to a safe location.
