WIND BARRIER
Install the unit a minimum of six inches (152 mm)
above the roof surface to avoid ice build-up around
the unit. Locate the unit above a load-bearing wall
or area of the roof that can adequately support the
unit. Consult local codes for rooftop applications.
If coil must be installed facing prevailing winter
winds, a wind barrier should be constructed. Size
barrier at least the same height and width as out­
door unit. Install barrier 24 inches (610 mm) from
the sides of the unit in the direction of prevailing
winds.
