Inspect the exterior of the unit for shipping damage. Ensure that there is no damage to the door, ports, power cord, etc.

OCATING THE NIT
Choose an appropriate location for the unit.
• Within an area of the house where the ambient temperature is kept
between 50°F and 104°F.
• Away from living areas (dining room, living room, bedroom), if possible.
• So as to provide easy access to the interior of the unit, for regular and
annual maintenance.
NOTE: There must be a 27" clearance in front of the unit to fully open
the door. In limited space, the door can be removed by lifting it
up, but there must be a 18" clearance in front of the unit to
remove the core.
• Close to an exterior wall, so as to limit the length of the insulated flexible
duct to and from the unit.
• Away from hot chimneys and other fire hazards.
• Allow for a power source (standard 3-prong grounding outlet).
• Close to a drain. If no drain is close by, use a pail to collect run-off.
The unit can be hung using provided 4 chains and springs (see at right) or
hung to the wall using provided brackets (see next page).
In every case, make sure the unit is level.
