Weather dependent precautions

■
Select a place where the rain can be avoided as much as
possible.
■
Be sure that the air inlet of the unit is not positioned towards the
main wind direction. Frontal wind will disturb the operation of the
unit. If necessary, use a screen to block the wind.
■
Ensure that water cannot cause any damage to the location by
adding water drains to the foundation and prevent water traps in
the construction.
■
Do not install the unit in areas where the air contains high levels
of salt such as that near the ocean.

Selecting a location in cold climates

NOTE When operating the unit in a low outdoor ambient
temperature, be sure to follow the instructions
described below.
■
To prevent exposure to wind and snow, install a baffle plate on
the air side of the outdoor unit:

In heavy snowfall areas it is very important to select an
installation site where the snow will not affect the unit. If lateral
snowfall is possible, make sure that the heat exchanger coil is
not affected by the snow (if necessary construct a lateral
canopy).
