• During operation in heating mode, condensate is produced in the outdoor unit due to defrosting, which
must be able to run-off freely to prevent stagnation.
• When positioned on a flat surface, a draining channel must be created around the unit that goes directly
into the rainwater collection well of the water network (figure 15).
• in the case of installation on a balcony or terrace, it must be possible to position a recipient under the
unit, possibly in galvanised sheet or stainless steel (preferable), with drain pipe that flows directly into the
gutter.
• Another option (figure 16) is to position the gasket (6) on the fitting (5) and then insert the latter into the
hole made on the bottom of the outdoor unit and turn it by 90° to fix it securely.
• Connect a rubber hose (not supplied) to the fitting (6) if water is drained from the outdoor unit in heating
mode.
2.6.2 - Outdoor unit assembly
Proceed as follows (as described in the previous paragraph), once the ideal position for installation of the
outdoor unit has been identified:
a. Position the unit on the support base, respecting the drilling distances indicated in the table in figure X4.
b. Screw any clamping nuts, without tightening completely.
c. Using a spirit level, check the unit is level; if necessary, adjust the support feet.
