2.1 POSITIONING THE AIR CONDITIONER

To maintain the best performance from your unit, prevent breakdowns or hazards, you must position it correctly. Please follow the guidelines and instruction below in full, as failure to do so could cause potential installation problems. 

- The air conditioner must be installed on an exterior wall that has access to the out side with a minimum of 2 metres clearance to the outside. There should be no obstacles within the 2 metres, to allow circulation of the airflow. 

- The unit must be fitted leaving room all around as illustrated in the paper template. 

-          The wall on which the unit is installed must be sturdy and able to withstand the weight of the unit. After determining the best place for installation as described above, please check to ensure that the wall can be drilled in the chosen area without interfering with other structures or installations (beams, piers, pipes, wires, etc.).

-          Please also ensure that there are no obstacles on the outside of the wall, which may obstruct air circulation through the drilled holes, for example: plants and their leaves, slats or panelling, drain pipes, overflows and gratings, etc.). Any obstruction could interfere with the correct performance of the unit.

 

2.2 PAPER TEMPLATE

Paper Template (copy to scale enclosed with accessories) drilling the hole above ground floor level, please ensure that an area has been secured and while the holes are drilled the outside area is supervised, until drilling has been completed.

 

 

INTAKE AND OUTLET HOLES

DRAINAGE HOLE

 

Fasten the template to the wall once the following guidelines have been thoroughly checked.

Do not drill any holes until you are 100% confident that there are no obstacles in the area you wish to drill and there are no obstructions, which could be hidden by the construction of the wall, for example: Electrical wiring water & gas pipes or supporting lintels or beams. Ensure that a sprit level is used, as the unit must be level. Follow the installation instructions & measurements in full.

This operation should be carried out using the proper tools (diamond tip or core borers drills with high twisting torque and adjustable rotation speed). Fasten the template to the wall taking care to check the distance From the floor and or ceiling and keep it horizontal by using a spirit level.

Use a pilot drill to mark the centre of each core hole to be drilled. Use a core boring head having a diameter of 165 mm to drill the two holes for intake and outlet the air. It is recommended that the holes must have a slightly downward inclination of 3-5 degrees to prevent any backflow of water from the pipes. The unit produces condensate that has to be extracted to enable the unit to operate correctly. It is necessary to drill a hole through the wall measuring 30mm in diameter in the position shown in the paper template. Drainage occurs by gravity. For this reason, it is essential for the drain line to have a minimum downward inclination of at least 3% throughout its length. 

2.4 FASTENING THE BRACKET 

Drill the holes for anchoring the fastening bracket to the wall using preferably the 6 holes showed in black on the paper template. If the wall is not sturdy enough it is advisable to use extra anchor bolts using the holes showed in grey on the paper template. The anchor bolts provided require a 8mm holes; the wall should be inspected to determine if provided bolts are useful or if it is necessary to use a different anchorage. The manufacturer is not liable in case of underestimation of the structural consistency of the anchorage made at the time of installation. 

 2.5 INSTALLATION OF THE PIPES 

After drilling the holes, the plastic pipes supplied with the air conditioner need to be fitted through them. The pipe with a diameter of 160mm (hot air discharge) and has to be fitted in the left hole. The length of the pipes should be 10 mm less than he depht of the wall. Use a normal hacksaw to cut the supplied pipes to the correct length. The tube diameter is nearly the same as that carried out using the 165 mm nominal diameter core drill therefore you may need to slightly force the introduction of the pipe, using in difficult cases, a normal rubber hammer and a small piece of timber to gently tap the tube into the hole. Fit the plastic pipe into the hole and fasten the flange with 2x6 mm screws and wall plugs. Should the insertion prove to be too difficult, we suggest you drill using the core bit inside the hole so as to widen the internal diameter slightly.

Please use the same instructions to fit the right hand tube (air intake pipe) using the supplied pipe with a diameter of 150mm.The tube diameter is slightly smaller than that carried out using the 165mm core. 

 

 2.6 FITTING THE GRATINGS 

If the external grating is accessible to prevent its removal, it is recommended to fasten it to the wall with wall plugs and screws with a diameter of 6 mm.

To fit the external two gratings please proceed as follows: 

 

 

 

 

Familiarise yourself with the fitting of the grating to the tube, before installation. Insert the cords through the centre of the grating. One grating fits on the outside of the tube and the other fits inside. The air intake is the smaller hole and the grating therefore fits on the outside of the air intake tube. Insert the supplied cord into the hole. Fold the outer grating in half grasping the cord with your free hand. Insert your arm inside the pipe with the grating and push all the way to the outside. Let the grating unfold and pull the cord towards you. One grating fits on the outside of the tube and the other fits inside. With a little patience and manipulation the two gratings will fit the end of the tubes. Grasping the cord, insert your fingers between the fins and pull the grating towards you until it is properly positioned in the pipe, keeping the fins in a vertical position. Tighten the cord and fasten it to the dent on the internal flanges. 

 

 

 

 

 

2.7 FITTING THE UNIT ON BRACKET 

After checking again that the fastening bracket is securely fastened to the wall, and that any necessary preparations for electric connection and condensate drainage have been made, please remove the compressor holders (remove plastic belt A and unscrew holder B and fasten the air conditioner to its supporting bracket, A and B can be discarded ). 

Lift it up by holding the sides at the bottom and not the front panel Tilt the unit slightly towards you to facilitate the operation of fastening it onto the bracket. The unit is provided with an insulated drainage pipe (450mm long), to fit on the pipe that protrudes from the lower backside of the unit,which is inserted in the drainage hole. The air conditioner can now be pushed firmly against the wall. Carefully inspect the installation to ensure that the insulating back panel fits firmly against the wall and there are no fissures at the back of the air conditioner.

2.8 DRAINAGE LINE

To complete the drainage line fit the drainage pipe on the drainage hole and push firmly into lace. A further extension pipe  with an internal diameter of 16 mm can be fitted if necessary.

If the line drains into a vessel (tank or other recipient), this container should not be sealed and the drainpipe should not remain immersed in the water. Install the extension drain condensate as required. The drain should flow in a downwards direction, as this is a gravity flow (E).

When you set the temperature in cooling mode, the LCD on the front of the unit shows the set point, then after a few second the LCD display will then revert to room temperature and will decrease by 1 degree C in turn until the unit reaches your desired temperature. 

When the equipment first turns onto heating mode, there will be a short delay of three or so minutes, this is a normal time delay function and the equipment will start heating after this short period of time. When you set the temperature in heating mode, the LCD on the front of the unit shows the set point, then after a few second the LCD will then revert to room temperature and will rise by 1 degree C in turn until the unit reaches your desired temperature. 

In this mode the air conditioner will attempt to maintain the room temperature between 20 C and 25 C. If the room temperature is below 20 C it will be in heating mode, if it rises above 25 C the unit will be in cooling mode, if it is between the two the air conditioner will simply circulate room temperature air. The reason for the 5 C 'gap' is to stop the compressor oscillating rapidly between heating and cooling as this would severely shorten the life of the product should it be allowed to happen.
