Outdoor Unit
Installation
Step 2: Install drain joint (Heat pump unit
only)
Before bolting the outdoor unit in place, you
must install the drain joint at the bottom of
the unit. Note that there are two different
types of drain joints depending on the type
of outdoor unit.
If the drain joint comes with a rubber seal
(see Fig. A), do the following:
1. Fit the rubber seal on the end of the
drain joint that will connect to the outdoor
unit.
2. Insert the drain joint into the hole in the
base pan of the unit.
3. Rotate the drain joint 90° until it clicks in
place facing the front of the unit.
4. Connect a drain hose extension (not
included) to the drain joint to redirect
water from the unit during heating mode.
If the drain joint doesn’t come with a
rubber seal (see Fig. B), do the following:
1. Insert the drain joint into the hole in the
base pan of the unit. The drain joint will
click in place.
2. Connect a drain hose extension (not
included) to the drain joint to redirect water
from the unit during heating mode.

IN COLD CLIMATES
In cold climates, make sure that the drain
hose is as vertical as possible to ensure
swift water drainage. If water drains too
slowly, it can freeze in the hose and ood
the unit.
Step 3: Anchor outdoor unit
The outdoor unit can be anchored to the
ground or to a wall-mounted bracket with
bolt (M10). Prepare the installation base of
the unit according to the dimensions below.
