CAUTION: Your heat pump is a valuable item and should be handled with care! Do not drop or lay on it's
side during transportation. Lift the unit off the shipping pallet. Avoid damaging the fins on the evaporator
coil.
Unit Location
Outdoor Installation
Refer to diagram below. Allow 24" clearance between the heat collection surfaces and walls, fences and
shrubs. The heat pump requires large volumes of air moving over the heat collector.
Allow 5' of vertical clearance between the top of the heat pump and any roof overhang or other
obstruction. This prevents cold discharge air from recirculating back into the evaporator coils, reducing
the overall performance of the heat pump.
Provide at least 24" of open area in front of the main access panel. The electrical panel will need to be
accessed during installation so avoid any plumbing obstructions that will prevent easy access.
NOTE: Dimensions refer to back of unit only. Maintain 24" clearance on all other sides.
Try to place the heat pump away from excessive rain runoff from the roof. If necessary, a gutter or rain
shield may have to be installed on the roof above the heat pump.
