Selecting the Best Location
Selecting the Best Location
Do’s
• Place the unit where air circulation will not be blocked.
• Place the unit where drainage can be obtained easily and to minimize the length of the condensate drain piping.
• Place the unit where noise prevention is taken into consideration.
• Place the unit in a location that can support a load four times the indoor unit weight, and where the indoor unit can be level.
• Ensure there is sufficient maintenance space.
• Locate the indoor unit in a location where it can be easily connected to the outdoor unit / heat recovery unit.
Figure 53: Clearance Requirements for BH and B8 High Static Ducted
Units.
Don’ts
• Avoid installing the unit near high-frequency generators.
• Do not install the unit near a doorway.
• Do not install the unit near a heat or steam source, or where considerable amounts of oil, iron powder, or flour are used. (These materials
may generate condensate, cause a reduction in heat exchanger efficiency, or the drain pump to malfunction. If this is a potential problem,
install a ventilation fan large enough to vent out these materials.)

The unit must not be installed where sulfuric acid and ammable or cor-
rosive gases are generated, vented into, or stored. There is risk of re,
explosion, and physical injury or death.
The unit may be damaged, may malfunction, and / or will
not operate as designed if installed in any of the conditions
listed.
• Indoor units (IDUs) must not be placed in an environment where
the IDUs may be exposed to harmful volatile organic compounds
(VOCs) or in environments where there is improper air make up or supply or inadequate ventilation. If there are concerns about VOCs in
the environment where the IDUs are installed, proper air make up or supply and/ or adequate ventilation must be provided. Additionally, in
buildings where IDUs will be exposed to VOCs consider a factory-applied epoxy coating to the fan coils for each IDU.
• If the unit is installed near a body of water, the installation parts are at risk of corroding. Appropriate anti-corrosion methods must be taken
for the unit and all installation parts.
