GENERAL INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

Required Clearances

Proper airflow through the Single Zone outdoor unit coil is critical for correct unit operation. When installing, consider service, inlet and outlet,
and minimum allowable space requirements as illustrated in the diagrams below.
Minimum Clearance Requirements for Single Zone
Outdoor Unit Clearance
Specific clearance requirements in the diagram below are for the single zone wall mount systems. Figure 4 shows the overall minimum
clearances that must be observed for safe operation and adequate airflow around the outdoor unit.
When placing the outdoor unit under an overhang, awning, sunroof or other roof-like structure, observe the clearance requirements (as shown in
Figure 5) for height in relation to the unit. This clearance ensures that heat radiation from the condenser is not restricted around the unit.
Adhere to all clearance requirements if installing the unit on a roof. Be sure to level the unit and ensure that the unit is adequately anchored.
Outdoor Unit Clearance
Consult local codes for rooftop mounting requirements.
