Inside the building
The indoor and outdoor units are connected to the
refrigerant lines and the connecting cable. Wall outlets
are required for this purpose. With these wall outlets,
be aware of load bearing sections, lintels, damp proof-
ing elements (e.g. vapour barriers), etc.
Note
In order to prevent structure-borne noise transmission,
the refrigerant lines must not come into contact with
PVC or PE pipes.
Line lengths
■
Max. height differential, indoor unit – outdoor
unit:
15 m
■
Min. line length:
5 m
■
Max. line length:
Types B04/06/08: 25 m
Types A12/A14/A16: 30 m
Note
No additional charging is required for line lengths up to
10 m: See page 62.

Information on installing the cables and lines
Wall outlet:
■
No wall outlet where load bearing sections, lintels,
damp proofing elements (e.g. vapour barriers), etc.
are located.
■
No structure-borne noise transmission, i.e. avoid
contact between metal (refrigerant line) and the
building structure.
Routing the cables and lines:
■
Route cables free of strain and separated from the
refrigerant lines.
■
Route the hot gas line with pipe bends. This reduces
the transmission of vibrations to the pipe wall.
■
Use a tighter pipe bend for vibration compensation
on a shorter hot gas line than on a longer hot gas
line.
■
Insulate all refrigerant lines.
