SELECTION OF INSTALLATION SITE
ENGLISH

- If the outdoor unit should be installed facing
the sea wind, build a windbreak around the
unit to protect it from the wind.
• Sufficient measures are required for a nor-
mal operation in the areas where a heavy
snow and harsh weather conditions are
expected.
• Install the unit considering seasonal wind or
snow in winter for other areas as well.
• Attach a hood to the inlet/outlet to prevent
snow or rain from entering the unit directly
when the unit is operated at the outdoor
temperature below 10.
• Install the outdoor unit not to come in con-
tact with snow directly. If snow piles up and
freezes on the inlet, the system may mal-
function.
• Make sure to clear away the snow before
operating when snow piles up more than
100mm on top of the outdoor unit.
• Install the outdoor unit where it can be pro-
tected from heavy snow.
• Do not install the outdoor unit on weak
ground such as a dilapidated part of building
or an area prone to snow accumulation.
• Do not install the outdoor unit under any
eaves or any area where an icicle or snow
may fall, because this may cause damage.
•
Place that has no direct influence of snow or rain.
•
Place with no danger of snowfall or icicle drop.
• Place without weak floor or base such as
decrepit part of the building or with a lot of
snow accumulation.
The materials of windbreak, such as concrete,
should be strong enough to protect the out-
door unit from the sea wind. The height and
width should be more than 150% of the size
of outdoor unit.
The distance between the windbreak and the
outdoor unit should be more than 700mm for
easy air flow.
• Place with fluent water draining
- Install at a place with fluent water draining
to prevent damage from localized heavy
rain and avoid frequent flooded area.
CAUTION
• Do not install the air conditioner where it
could be exposed to sea wind directly.
• If the outdoor unit is installed close to
the seaside, it needs additional anticor-
rosion treatment on the heat exchanger.
!
* Periodic (more than once a year) clean-
ing of the dust or salt particles stuck on
the heat exchanger by using water.
* Selecting the site (outdoor unit)
- Install the outdoor unit where the sea wind
can be avoided.
