Setup and Installation

The Gree Multi21+ system requires professional installation by a licensed HVAC contractor. This ensures correct setup, adherence to safety standards, and proper system performance, which is also a condition for warranty eligibility.

Key Installation Considerations:

  • Line Set: Two sets of 1/4" x 3/8" line sets are required but not included with the unit.
  • Indoor Unit Placement: The Multi21+ Universal Floor/Ceiling indoor units are versatile and can be suspended from a ceiling or mounted low on a wall. This design is particularly suitable for spaces with limited wall space, such as restaurants or hallways.
  • Electrical Connection: The system operates on 208/230V. Ensure the electrical supply meets these requirements and is installed by a qualified electrician.

Operating Instructions

Your Gree Multi21+ system provides both heating and cooling functionalities, managed independently for two zones. The system is controlled via the provided wired wall controllers and wireless remote controls.

Key Features:

  • G10 Inverter Technology: This advanced technology optimizes energy consumption, reduces operational noise from the outdoor unit, and maintains stable room temperatures by avoiding the frequent on/off cycles of conventional systems.
  • Dual-Zone Control: Each indoor unit can be set to a different temperature and mode (heating or cooling), allowing for customized comfort in two distinct areas.
  • Air Purification Filter: The indoor units are equipped with an air purification filter to improve indoor air quality.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your Gree Multi21+ system. Always disconnect power to the unit before performing any maintenance.

  • Air Filter Cleaning: The air filters in the indoor units should be cleaned regularly (e.g., monthly, or more frequently depending on usage and air quality). Refer to the specific indoor unit manual for instructions on how to access and clean the filters.
  • Outdoor Unit Cleaning: Keep the outdoor unit free from obstructions, leaves, dirt, and debris. Periodically clean the outdoor coil with a soft brush or water hose (low pressure) to maintain airflow.
  • Professional Inspection: It is recommended to have a licensed HVAC technician perform an annual inspection and professional cleaning of the entire system.

Troubleshooting

Before contacting service, review the following common issues and solutions:

  • Unit Not Turning On: Check power supply, circuit breaker, and ensure the remote control batteries are functional.
  • Insufficient Cooling/Heating: Verify temperature settings, ensure air filters are clean, and check for any obstructions to airflow at indoor or outdoor units.
  • Unusual Noises: Minor operational noises are normal. If loud or unusual noises occur, contact a qualified technician.
  • Water Leakage: Ensure the condensate drain line is not clogged or kinked.

For persistent issues, contact a licensed HVAC professional.
