level and horizontal floor, with the right load-bearing capacity, is
required.
Base frames must be horizontally aligned, foundation bases must be
level and horizontal.

the supporting surface; gaps underneath the frame are not permissible.
To avoid the transfer of structure-borne sound from the air-conditioning
unit to the building, a permanently elastic intermediate layer must be
provided between the installation surface or foundation and the air-
conditioning unit. This intermediate layer should preferably consist of
insulation strips fitted along the frame profiles of the unit.
KGW: For the installation and assembly of the units and unit components a
base frame or foundation base is required.
The unit may not be placed on level ground as this would damage the
throating (see illustration). To avoid any damage, the unit may, if
necessary, placed on timber strips.
Base frames must be horizontally aligned and the foundation base must be level
and horizontal.
The whole underside of the equipment frame must be in contact with the supporting
surface; gaps underneath the frame are not permissible.
WOLF base frames are supplied either pre-fitted to the unit or as separate
modules (shipped in advance).
Separately supplied base frames are supplied as individual sections and must
be assembled, aligned and fixed to the installation surface on site, according
to the instructions supplied with the base frame.
For units pre-fitted with base frames but supplied in sections, the base frame
sections correspond with the relevant unit sections.
