INSTALLATION
During installation or whenever work must be carried out on the unit, it is essential to strictly follow the instructions in this
manual, comply with the directions on the unit and in any case take all necessary precautions.
The high flammability of the refrigerant gas used, the pressures in the refrigerant circuit and the electrical
components fitted can create risky situations during installation and maintenance work.
6.1 Dimensions and weight
In order to correctly position the unit, please refer to the dimensional drawing supplied with the order confirmation for its
size and weight.
6.2 Place of installation
The following should be taken into account when establishing the best place to install the unit and the relevant connections:
- size and origin of the hydraulic piping;
- location of the power supply;
- accessibility for maintenance or repair operations;
- load-bearing capacity of the support surface;
- ventilation of the air-cooled condenser;
- orientation and exposure to solar radiation. Keep the condensing coil out of direct sunlight as far as possible;
- direction of prevailing winds. Do not position the unit in a such way that prevailing winds can cause air recirculation at
the condensing coil;
- type of surface. Do not position the unit on dark coloured surfaces (e.g. tarred surfaces) so as to avoid overtemperatu-
res during use;
- possible glare, resonance, acoustic interactions with elements outside the unit;
Check that the max. temperature in the room where the unit is installed is within the limit specified in the
technical catalogue.
If it is higher, contact the Manufacturer for inverter downgrading.
All the models in the range are designed and built for outdoor installation (terraces, gardens). They must therefore not be
installed under canopies or near plants (even if these would cover only part of the unit), in order to avoid the possibility of
air recirculation.
It is obligatory to observe the clearances specified in the dimensional diagram of the unit.
If the unit is installed in particularly windy areas, windbreaks must be installed to prevent malfunctioning of
the unit.
During the defrost cycle, units in heat pump operation allow water to flow out that freezes with sub-zero tem-
peratures. Although the unit is installed perfectly horizontal, make slopes in the support surface to direct the
defrost water into drains, wells or in any case to places where there is no danger of accident.
The unit is filled with flammable refrigerant gas, class A3.
