WARNING: The HWA1-A/HWA1-H units are designed for outdoor installation and for places not directly accessible to unqualified personnel. The place of installation must be entirely far away from fire risk. All the necessary measures should be adopted in order to prevent the fire risk in the place of installation.
LOCATION AND MINIMUM TECHNICAL CLEARANCES The HWA1-A and HWA1-H models are all designed for outdoor installations; any covering over the unit or locating near trees (even if they partially cover the unit) should be avoided in order to allow the air recirculation. It is advisable to realize a supporting basement, with adequate size similar to unit foot-print.
