3. 4. Drain installation

36 type only
Perform drain work in accordance with this Manual, and ensure that the drain water
is properly drained. If the drain work is not carried out correctly, water may drip down
from the unit, wetting the furniture.
When the outdoor temperature is 32 ° F (0 ° C) or less, do not use the accessory drain
pipe and drain cap. If the drain pipe and drain cap are used, the drain water in the pipe
may freeze in extremely cold weather. (Reverse cycle model only).

Since the drain water fl ows out of the outdoor unit during heating operation, install the
drain pipe and connect it to a commercial 5/8 in. (16 mm) hose. (Reverse cycle model
only)
When installing the drain pipe, plug all the holes other than the drain pipe mounting hole
in the bottom of the outdoor unit with putty so there is no water leakage. (Reverse cycle
model only)

3. 5. Secure the unit

• Install 4 anchor bolts at the locations indicated with arrows in the fi gure.
• To reduce vibration, do not install the unit directly on the ground. Install it on a secure
base (such as concrete blocks).
• The foundation shall support the legs of the unit and have a width of 1 in. (50 mm) or
more.
• Depending on the installation conditions, the outdoor unit may spread its vibration
during operation, which may cause noise and vibration. Therefore, attach damping
materials (such as damping pads) to the outdoor unit during installation.
• Install the foundation, making sure that there is enough space for installing the
connection pipes.
• Secure the unit to a solid block using foundation bolts. (Use 4 sets of commercially
available M10 bolts, nuts, and washers.)
• The bolts should protrude 1 in. (20 mm) (Refer to the fi gure.)
• If overturning prevention is required, purchase the necessary commercially available
items.

2 in. (50 mm) or over
In areas with heavy snowfall , where intake and outlet of the outdoor unit can become
blocked by snow. It is recommended that unit be installed under a canopy or elevated
on a high stand.
Failure to do so will result in poor heating performance and/or premature failure of
equipment.
In places where the outdoor temperature drops to 32 °F (0 °C) or lower, the drain wa-
ter may freeze and may stop up the drain or cause other outdoor unit trouble. There-
fore take measures so that the drain water will not freeze and clog the drain.
Please set up the outdoor unit in a high place and please do not arrange the frame of
installed stand under the drain port, because the water dropped from the drain port
repeats freezing and accumulating, and may block the drain port.
