The mounting plate is the device on which you will
mount the indoor unit.
1. Remove the screw that attaches the mounting plate
to the back of the indoor unit.
Step 2: Attach Mounting Plate to Wall
2. Place the mounting plate against the wall in a
location that meets the standards in the "Select
Installation Location" step. (See "Mounting Plate
Dimensions" for detailed information on mounting
plate sizes.)
3. Drill holes for mounting screws in places that
• have studs and can support the weight of the
unit
• correspond to screw holes in the mounting
plate
4. Secure the mounting plate to the wall with the
screws provided.
5. Make sure the mounting plate is at against the
wall.
If the wall is made of brick, concrete, or similar
material, drill 0.2" diameter (5mm diameter)
holes in the wall and insert the sleeve anchors
provided. Secure the mounting plate to the wall
by tightening the screws directly into the clip
anchors.
NOTE ABOUT WALL HOLE:
2. Using a core drill [3.5 in (76.2 mm) for 24K & 36K
units, 2.5 in (65 mm) for all others], drill a hole in
the wall. Make sure that the hole is drilled at a
slight downward angle, so that the outdoor end of
the hole is lower than the indoor end by about 0.2
to 0.275 in (5 mm-7 mm). This will ensure proper
water drainage. (See Fig. 4.2)
Step 3: Drill Wall Hole for Connective
Piping
NOTE:Whenthegassideconnectivepipeis5/8"
(16mm) or more, the wall hole should be 3.54"
(90mm).
3. Place the protective wall cu in the hole. This
protects the edges of the hole and will help seal it
when you nish the installation process.
CAUTION
When drilling the wall hole, be sure to avoid wires,
plumbing, and other sensitive components.

You must drill a hole in the wall for refrigerant piping,
the drainage pipe, and the signal cable that will connect
the indoor and outdoor units.
1. Determine the location of the wall hole based on the
position of the mounting plate. Refer to "Mounting
Plate Dimensions" on the next page to help you
determine the optimal position. Refer to Fig. 4.3
wall hole diameter and install at a slight angle to
facilitate drainage.
