Select the Location

Follow the tolerances depicted in the illustration below: 

Due to the fresh air + gentle wind mechanism, the model is designed without fingerguards. For safety reasons, the indoor unit's louver must be located at a safe height of 8-1/4 feet (2.5 m) or more above the floor. If the system is installed at a shorter height, any injury incurred from sticking fingers into the airflow louver is the responsibility of the installer or user. 

Follow these best practices for selecting the optimal installation location: 

• Do not install the unit on a wall that is subject to vibrations. 
• Do not install the system near sources of heat, steam, or flammable gases. 
• Do not install the indoor unit in a location that is exposed to direct sunlight. 
• Ensure that the inlet and outlet vents are not obstructed. The system should be able to output air all across the room. 
• Minimize the distance between the indoor and outdoor units. Install the system in a location where connecting the indoor and outdoor units will be as simple as possible. 
• Install the unit on a strong wall and where it is easy to drain the condensate water. 
• Install the unit in a location where it will be easy to service the product and perform any necessary maintenance.

Indoor Above Indoor Unit

• Install the indoor unit so that its bottom is at least 8-1/4 feet (2.5 m) above the floor. 
• Ensure adequate space above the air handler for return airflow (4-6 inches, ideally 8 inches / 102-152 mm, ideally 203 mm). 

Fresh Air Inlet

• Keep the fresh inlet within 14 inches (355.6 mm) of the wall. 
• Rotate the pipe as needed to avoid interference with other lines. 
• Ensure a slight downward slope to prevent rain intrusion. 
• Maintain a minimum bend radius of 2-3/8 inches (60 mm) to preserve airflow. 
• Do not place the inlet near exhaust outlets, enclosed areas, or polluted air sources.
