CHAP. 2.2
SELECTION OF POSITION OF THE UNIT
The position for installation of the inside unit, to obtain the best
performance and prevent breakdowns or hazards, must have the
following requisites:
- The bottom of the low level unit must be at least 300mm off the
floor whilst the high level unit must be at least 2 meters off the
floor and no more than 3 (fig. 1)
- The wall on which the inside unit is installed must be
sturdy and able to withstand its weight.
- There should be no obstacles to the free circulation of air on the
intake side and on the air outlet side especially, there should
be no obstacles closer than 2 m (this could cause turbulence that
would interfere with correct operation of the unit).
- It must be possible to leave room around the unit for any
maintenance operations that may be necessary.
The air conditioner must be installed on a wall that

Caution: After determining the best place for installation
as described above, check to make sure that the wall can
be drilled in that point without interfering with other
structures or installations (beams, piers, pipes, wires,
etc.). Check again to make sure there are no obstacles
to air circulation through the holes to be drilled due to
plants and their leaves, slats or paneling, blinds,
gratings or grids too dense, etc.).
Before installing the air conditioner, it is essential to make an
