Installation Cautions
Observe the following when installing air curtains:
- Please install the unit on a firm supporting structure. The mounting plate should be mounted to at least one wall stud to avoid shaking and to ensure its security as the unit running may cause it to become loose or shake and make noise.
- Please install the unit inside the room. Diagram illustrating indoor installation with airflow direction indicated.
- Install the unit no more than 108" (2.74m) from the ground. Diagram showing the unit mounted at a height of 2.5m.
- When the entrance is wider than the unit, it is recommended to install two or more units. In this case, provide 1" to 112" (25-40mm) gaps between the units. Diagram showing multiple units installed with gaps.
- Don't allow gaps between the unit and the wall. Diagram illustrating proper sealing against the wall.
- Don't install the unit at a place where it is splashed by water, exposed to excessive steam, explosive gas, or corrosive gas. Icons representing water splashes, steam, explosive gas, and corrosive gas are shown, indicating areas to avoid.
