WARNING
Outdoor Unit Location Selection
Selecting the Best Location for the Outdoor Unit
Do not install the unit in an area where combustible gas may generate, flow, stagnate, or leak. These conditions can cause a fire, resulting
in bodily injury or death.
Do not install the unit in a location where acidic solution and spray (sulfur) are often used as it can cause bodily injury or death.
Do not use the unit in environments where oil, steam, or sulfuric gas are present as it can cause bodily injury or death.
When deciding on a location to place the outdoor unit, be sure to choose an area where run-off water from defrost cycle will not accumulate and freeze on sidewalks or driveways, which may create unsafe conditions. Properly install and insulate any drain hoses to prevent the hose from freez­ing, cracking, leaking, and causing unsafe conditions from frozen condensate.
Install a fence to prevent vermin from crawling into the unit or unauthorized individuals from accessing it. Vermin and unauthorized individuals may
cause a re, electric shock, physical injury or death. Follow the placement guidelines set forth in “Clearance Requirements”.
Install a fence to prevent vermin from crawling into the unit or unauthorized individuals from accessing it. Vermin and unauthorized individuals may

Where high-frequency electrical noise / electromagnetic waves will affect operation.
• Where operating sound from the unit will disturb inhabitants of surrounding buildings.
• Where the unit will be exposed to direct, strong winds.
• Where the discharge of one outdoor unit will blow into the inlet side of an adjacent unit (when installing multiple outdoor units).
Planning for Snow and Ice
To ensure the outdoor unit operates properly, certain measures are required in locations where there is a possibility of heavy snowfall or severe windchill or cold:
1. Prepare for severe winter wind chills and heavy snowfall, even in areas of the country where these are unusual phenomena.
2. Position the outdoor unit so that its airflow fans are not buried by direct, heavy snowfall. If snow piles up and blocks the airflow, the sys-
tem may malfunction.
3. Remove any snow that has accumulated four (4) inches or more on the top of the outdoor unit.
4. In climates that may experience significant snow buildup, mount the outdoor unit on a raised, field-provided platform or stand. The raised
support platform must be high enough to allow the unit to remain above possible snow drifts, and must be higher than the maximum antici­pated snowfall for the location.
5. Design the mounting base to prevent snow accumulation on the platform in front or back of the unit frame.
6. Provide a field fabricated snow protection hood to keep snow and ice and/or drifting snow from accumulating on the coil surfaces.
7. To prevent snow and heavy rain from entering the outdoor unit, install the condenser air inlets and outlets facing away from direct
winds.
8. Consider tie-down requirements in case of high winds or where required by local codes.

Required Outdoor Unit Clearances
Minimum Clearance Requirements for Single Fan Outdoor Units
Proper clearance for the outdoor unit coil is critical for proper operation. When installing the outdoor unit, consider service, inlet and outlet, and minimum allowable space requirements as illustrated in the diagrams below.
Specific clearance requirements in the diagram below are for single fan outdoor units. Figure below shows the overall minimum clearances that must be observed for safe operation and adequate airflow around the outdoor unit.
When placing the outdoor unit under an overhang, awning, sunroof or other “roof-like structure”, observe the clearance requirements (as shown in Cases 1 and 2) for height in relation to the unit. This clearance ensures that heat radiation from the condenser is not restricted around the unit.
Adhere to all clearance requirements if installing the unit on a roof. Be sure to level the unit and ensure that the unit is adequately anchored. Consult local codes for rooftop mounting requirements. To have successful service access to the outdoor unit, see figure below for minimum spacing. When installing multiple outdoor units, see Cases 4 and 5 in the figure below for correct spacing requirements. Outdoor unit fans draw air from the back of the unit and discharge out the front. Place units back to back and front to front.
If the outdoor unit is installed between standard and minimum clearances, capacity decreases approximately 10%.

DEVICE CONNECTION LIMITATIONS
Refrigerant Safety Standards
ASHRAE Standards 15-2010 and 34-2010 address refrigerant safety and the maximum allowable concentration of refrigerant in an occupied space. Refrigerant will dissipate into the atmosphere, but a certain volume of air is required to safely dissipate the refrigerant. For R410A refrigerant, the maximum allowable concentration of refrigerant is 26 lbs./1,000 cubic feet (Addendum L modified the RCL to 26) of occupied spaces. Buildings with 24-hour occupancy are allowed half of that concentration.
If a single zone system develops a refrigerant leak, the entire refrigerant charge of the system will dump into the area where the leak occurs. To meet ASHRAE Standards 15 and 34, the smallest room volume on the system must be calculated and compared to the maximum allow­able concentration. Also consult state and local codes in regards to refrigerant safety.
General Refrigerant Piping System Information
Device Connection Limitations
A single-zone system consists of one outdoor unit and one indoor unit. One of the most critical elements of a single-zone system is the refrigerant piping. If the connection piping is not within allowable lim­its, there will be reliability, performance, noise, and vibration issues. See the table below for pipe length limits that must be followed in the design of a Single Zone Art Cool Mirror Wall Mount refrigerant pipe system. For information on additional refrigerant charge necessary for longer piping lengths, refer to Table 19 in the “Refrigerant Trim Charge” section.
