Standard Installation Guide - Important information

Sizing your system:

• When measuring the room you would like to treat, take note that the room size posted against each size system is a maximum. If you have large amounts of glass or additional heat sources, you may want to jump up a size.

Electrical Supply:

• When considering the requirement for a power supply, your electrician may (after testing the circuit) deem it suitable to spur or extend an existing ring main. If the existing ring mains are not suitable or are already overloaded, you will have to have a new supply installed from your fuse board. 
• You will need an adequate power supply. RCD protected circuit with a IP66 rated 16amp rotary isolator or 13amp switched fused spur.
• We can provide this for you and often it can be straight forward. During our site survey we can advise you. In most cases additional power supply can be installed from as little as £85 - £120 +Vat  

Positioning of equipment:

• Consideration must be taken when deciding where you would like each part of the system installed. For example, when positioning an indoor or outdoor unit they must have sufficient room to discharge the air. If either unit is blowing straight at a wall or obstruction, you stand a chance of the system over heating at the outdoor unit or short cycling at the indoor unit (stepping back prematurely as it thinks the room has reached the set temperature).     

Condenser Pumps:

• An air conditioning system generates condensation at the indoor unit when cooling, and that has to be removed. When an indoor unit is installed on an external wall, we can use gravity drains. Condensate pumps are typically used when an indoor unit has to be installed on an internal wall and interconnecting services have to go up into a loft space before exiting the property. Wherever possible we would suggest finding a way to not use a pump as they do add extra cost to the installation.
• Condenser pump kit with trunking is around £150 +vat

Pipe work:

• Pipe work and cabling will be clipped neatly directly to external brickwork. Pipe work has black insulation. Example in photo below: 
• We can also provide brown, white and black trunking system if required. We can discuss this during the site survey and this can add addition cost.
