INSTALLATION
Condensation drain predisposition
For heat pump appliances, a condensation drain pipe (Ø10
mm, internal, not supplied) must connect the unit to the pipe
on the top part of the appliance.
A solenoid valve will start the flow of the condensation from
the internal collection tray when the maximum level has
been reached. For cooling only appliances, said pipe must
be connected if the appliance is going to be used with low
external temperatures (below 23°C). As it's a gravity drain, it
is essential for the line to have at least a 3% slope minimum
in every point. A rigid or flexible pump can be used with a
minimum internal diameter of 10 mm. If the line flows into
a sewage system, it is necessary to perform a siphoning
operation before inserting the pipe in the main drainage.
Said siphon must be placed at least 300 mm under the
mouth of the appliance.
If the line flows into a container (e.g. a tank), do not
close the container hermetically and avoid immersing
the draining pipe into the water.

2.4 Assembling air ducts and external shutters
Once the holes have been made, place the supplied
plastic sheets inside them.
Roll up the sheet and insert it in the hole, checking that the
A junction line is aiming upwards.
Use a cutter to remove any excess pipe.
To place the external grids, proceed as follows:
-
connect the chains to the ends of the springs;
-
fold the external shutters;
-
insert your arm in the hole to push the shutter outside
while holding the ends of the chains with the other
hand to prevent them from falling down;
-
open the shutter inside the hole;

The hole for the condensation pipe must always lean
towards the outside.
The exact position in which to place the pipe mouth is
indicated on the template.
Check that the expelled water does not cause any
damage or problems to people or objects. During
winter, this water may create sheets of ice outside.
When connecting the condensation drain, be careful
not to sqeeze the rubber duct.
It is possible to empty the collection tray using the safety
drain at the base of the appliance if necessary.

-
rotate the shutter to bring the flap in the vertical C
position and check that the closing mechanism works;
-
pull the chains by tensioning the springs;
-
use a bolt cutter to remove any excess chain.
-
anchor the hook of the chain to wall B.
Use only the supplied grids or grids with the same
characteristics.
Be careful not to reverse the position of dampers (see
the sense of the fins according to the air flow).
