The installation of the split air conditioners is a crucial job. If the installation is done accurately your air conditioner will give optimum cooling, but if it is not done properly you won’t get the desired cooling effect. A poor installations also leads to frequent maintenance problems. Several factors have to considered during the installation of split air conditioner. Strength of wall to hold the AC The indoor unit of split AC must be installed on a wall strong enough to hold the unit’s weight. Proper spacing between wall ans AC unit The indoor unit of split AC requires at least 15 cm of open space surrounding its top and sides for proper air flow. Appropriate installation height from ground The indoor unit of split AC should be mounted at a height of 7-8 feet above the ground for adequate cooling inside the room Correct tilt angle of indoor unit While fixing the aluminum bracket on wall make sure that the bracket is given a slight tilt angle, so that the indoor unit of split AC, when fitted is also at a slight angle to enable unrestricted flow of the condensed water from the drain pipe.

Correct location of outdoor unit For proper cooling the indoor and outdoor units of split AC should be mounted at location away from direct sunlight and water. The outdoor unit of split AC should be installed in open space so that there is no hindrance to the heat dissipated from the condenser.how much does central ac units cost Proper placement of outdoor unitbuy small ac electric motors The outdoor unit of split AC must be placed on a flat and rigid surface. ac unit for floorThis unit contains key components of split AC like compressor, condenser, fan motor etc. If the unit is not placed on a flat surface then it will vibrate excessively, which can lead to the breakage of copper pipes, coolant leakage and compressor/condenser damage.

Further, the vibrating unit makes lots of noise which could disturb you and your neighbors. Right distance between indoor and outdoor unit Correct distance between the indoor and outdoor unit plays a very important role in cooling. The coolant at very low temperature flows inside the copper tubes between indoor and outdoor units of split AC. There is always some loss of cooling effect to the atmosphere when the refrigerant flows between the units. Hence to reduce this loss, the distance between the indoor unit of split AC and the outdoor unit of split AC should be kept as minimum as possible. The maximum allowable distance between the indoor and the outdoor units of split AC can be about 15 meters.Step 1: Install the compressor unit, Connect the lines and pull a vacuum on the lines. Installation Guide for PTACs Designed for a wide range of applications, packaged terminal air conditioner units are ideal for hotels and motels, office buildings, schools and apartments. When installing a Zoneline packaged terminal air conditioner or heat pump, the following checkpoints should be followed to reduce future problems.

Wall case must be level from left-to-right. Wall case must be level from front-to-back (1/4 bubble slope to rear is acceptable if rear drains are used. Case must be level if internal drain is used). Wall case should extend at least 1/4″ to the outside for caulking. Wall case must be sealed/caulked to outside wall on all four (4) sides. Wall case should be sealed/caulked to the inside wall on all four (4) sides. Standard steel wall cases are 42″ W × 16″ H × 13 3/4″ D. 16″, 24″, 28″ and 31″ deep cases are available for thicker walls. Wall case must be installed 3″ to 5″ above floor. Wall case must extend at least 2 3/8″ into room. Sub-Base can be used for electrical connections (check NEC & local codes for compliance). Electrical sub-bases are available in 208/230-volt 15, 20 & 30-amp configurations; 265-volt available in 15, 20, & 30-amp configurations. Remote Wall Thermostat (Optional) Zoneline Heat pumps require 6 wires (min) for remote wall thermostat hook-up.

Zonelines with electric heat and cooling require at least 5 wires for digital remote thermostat hook-up. Standard digital and programmable digital thermostats are available for both heat pumps and electric heat models. 208/230-volt applications use power cords for wall receptacle or sub-base applications. 265-volt applications must be direct connected per NEC. Architectural-3-colors available: Beige, Maple, & Bittersweet Chocolate. Architectural-Extruded anodized aluminum (can be painted to match outdoor motif). Stamped-Standard louvered aluminum grille available. Older architectural grilles can be used if RAK40 baffle kit is installed on chassis. Architectural grilles made by others must have 65% free area. These grilles must have properly located baffles/deflectors or RAK40 kits must be installed on chassis. Grilles not supplied by GE Appliances must be approved by a GE Appliances Applications Engineer to ensure compatibility. Zonelines operated during construction should be cleaned prior to property opening.

Unless properly cleaned, drywall and construction dust will coat the interior of the units and create unwanted odors and dust in the rooms, generating guest complaints. Drywall and construction dust may set off room fire alarms when the electric heaters are energized. • Selecting the right accessories for your GE Zoneline Wiring Wall Thermostat (Makeup Air Models Only) When wiring a wall thermostat for the AZ45/AZ65 series Zoneline, use this configuration.Wall mounted air conditioning units are placed at a high-level on a wall and are ideal for smaller areas such as bedrooms, living rooms, offices, server rooms and shops. They are installed in a position that can supply the room with an even air flow. Wall units are exceptionally quiet and most people can sleep quite easily with the unit turned on. Larger rooms may require multiple units spread evenly throughout the room to ensure that no areas are left out as this can create ‘hotspots’. Some installers will try to cut costs by suggesting that they install only one very powerful wall mounted unit, however, these more powerful wall units are usually intended for industrial or large commercial applications and can be too gusty and noisy for a domestic or office environment.

Using multiple smaller units will get the balance ‘just right’ eliminating gusts and reducing noise to provide the correct amount of cooling or heating. There is a large number of air conditioning manufacturers around the world and it can be difficult choosing the ideal wall aircon system that best suits your situation. Here at the Air Conditioning Company, we’ve used our 30 years of experience to narrow down the list of available manufacturers and only recommend and supply units from the top manufacturers in terms of price, quality, aesthetics and efficiency. Regarding pricing, we recommend different ranges to suit all budgets. However, it’s important to note that just because a unit is cheaper, it does not necessarily mean that it’s technical specifications are not as good as a more expensive unit. In many cases, a unit is only more expensive because of the brand or the aesthetics. The reason we can offer a ten-year warranty on our installations is simply because we know that we can trust both our chosen manufacturers and our expert installers.

Our surveyors will discuss all the options available and will provide you with brochures and pictures to help make your decision.

Daikin has long been considered the brand leader in the UK market based on their years of successfully manufacturing and trading ultra high-quality air conditioners. The Emura has a unique curved facia and a particularly elegant appearance. The Daikin Emura has integrated ‘smart sensors’ that monitor room conditions for optimal performance. It’s “intelligent eye” can identify whether or not the room is occupied and if the room is empty for more than 20 minutes, it will adjust its settings to save power (immediately switching back to full power when it detects movement). On top of this, the ‘eye’ amazingly directs air away from people in the room to avoid anyone feeling a cold draft. The Emura wall unit also has a “sophisticated titanium apatite photocatalytic air purification filter that traps microscopic airborne particles, breaks down odours and absorbs organic contaminants such as bacteria and viruses.” Wall mounted air conditioners have come a long way over the years and the major players in the industry have tirelessly committed themselves to improving the energy efficiency of their units.
