NOTE: Before installing the indoor unit, refer to the label on the unit box to ensure that the model number of the indoor unit matches the
model number of the outdoor unit.
The following are standards that will help you select an appropriate location for the unit. Proper installation locations meet the following standards:
NOTE: If there is no fixed refrigerant piping: While choosing a location, be aware that you should leave ample room for a wall hole (see Drill
wall hole for connecting piping step) for the signal cable and refrigerant piping that connect the indoor and outdoor units. The default
position for all piping is the right side of the indoor unit (while facing the unit). However, the unit can accommodate piping to both the
left and right.
