Selecting the Best Location for the Indoor Units
Select a location for installing the indoor units that will meet the following conditions:
• Within allowable parameters for proper connection to the outdoor unit (and branch distribution unit, if a Multi F MAX system).
• So that condensation drainage can be conveniently routed away.
• Include enough space around the indoor unit so that it is accessible for maintenance and service purposes.
• Where electrical noise / electromagnetic waves will not affect indoor unit operation. Maintain proper distances between the indoor units and
electric wires, audio and visual appliances, breaker / circuit panels, etc. If the frequency signal of the appliance is unstable, then install the
indoor unit a minimum of ten (10) feet away, and run the power and transmission cables through a conduit.
• An area that is level and with enough strength to bear the weight of the indoor unit(s).
