Selecting The Installation Site; Indoor Unit - Panasonic S-15MM1E5A Installation Instructions Manual

2. SELECTING THE INSTALLATION SITE

Indoor Unit

AVOID:
● areas where leakage of flammable gas may be expected.
● places where large amounts of oil mist exist.
● direct sunlight.
● locations near heat sources which may affect the
performance of the unit.
● locations where external air may enter the room directly.
This may cause "condensation" on the air discharge ports,
causing them to spray or drip water.
● locations where the remote controller will be splashed with
water or affected by dampness or humidity.
● installing the remote controller behind curtains or furniture.
● locations where high-frequency emissions are generated.
DO:
● select an appropriate position from which every corner of the
room can be uniformly cooled.
● select a location where the ceiling is strong enough to
support the weight of the unit.
● select a location where tubing and drain pipe have the
shortest run to the outdoor unit.
● allow room for operation and maintenance as well as
unrestricted air flow around the unit.
● install the unit within the maximum elevation difference
above or below the outdoor unit and within a total tubing
length (L) from the outdoor unit as detailed in the installation
manual packed with the outdoor unit.
● allow room for mounting the remote controller about 1 m (3.3
ft.) off the floor, in an area that is not in direct sunlight nor in
the flow of cool air from the indoor unit.
● The elevation (Slim Low Static Ducted) between the bottom
unit and the floor surface should be at least 2.4 m (8 feet).
● If the elevation (Slim Low Static Ducted) between them is
less than 2.4 m (8 feet), install a filter or a protective device
(field supply) not to touch the electrical parts or fan with
hands.
