  • Electrical Requirements: This 12,000 BTU unit operates on 230V/60Hz. Confirm your electrical supply meets these requirements. A dedicated circuit with appropriate circuit breaker (Max. Fuse size 30A) is recommended.
  • Room Size: This unit is designed for areas up to 550 sq.ft. Consider factors like insulation, window exposure, and heat sources when determining the appropriate BTU for your space.
Choosing the Right BTU Rating for AC

Figure 4: Guide for selecting the correct BTU rating based on room size and environmental factors.

Installation Steps (Professional Recommended):

  1. Mounting Indoor Unit: Secure the mounting plate to the wall, ensuring it is level and at the correct height.
  2. Drilling Wall Hole: Create a hole through the wall for the refrigerant lines, drain hose, and signal cable.
  3. Connecting Piping: Connect the pre-charged copper line set to both the indoor and outdoor units. Ensure proper flaring and tightening to prevent leaks.
  4. Electrical Wiring: Connect the electrical wiring between the indoor and outdoor units, and to the main power supply, following the wiring diagram in the full manual.
  5. Vacuuming the Lines: A crucial step to remove air and moisture from the refrigerant lines. This requires a vacuum pump and manifold gauges.
  6. Leak Test: Perform a leak test on all connections using a leak detector or soapy water.
  7. Releasing Refrigerant: Once vacuumed and leak-tested, open the valves on the outdoor unit to release the pre-charged refrigerant into the system.
  8. Drainage: Ensure the drain hose is properly sloped to allow for continuous condensate drainage.

Warning: This unit contains R454B refrigerant. Handling refrigerants requires proper certification and safety precautions. Do not attempt to open refrigerant lines without professional training and equipment.

4. Operating Instructions

The ROVSUN Mini Split system is operated primarily via the included remote control. Ensure batteries are installed correctly.
