Drill the holes slightly downwards (outside being lowest) to prevent water from being fed back
through the ducts (fig. 5).
The material being removed by drilling is expelled outwards so the installer must insure it does not hit
any person or object when it falls out.
To minimize damage to the exterior wall, proceed carefully with the last part of hole by decreasing
pressure on the drill. Next, drill the holes for anchoring the fastening brackets to the wall using as a first
option the 4 holes on the ends of the bracket as shown on the drilling template.
If the wall is not very solid, it is advisable to use extra anchor bolts. As shown on the template the bracket
can be fastened in a number of different ways and positions.
The majority of the weight of the appliance is to the right side so ensure the mounting hardware is ap-
propriate for the weight.
in all cases the wall should be inspected carefully to determine the best possible anchorage and type
of bolts suitable for your specific application.
Olimpia Splendid shall not be held liable for any underestimates made in the
structural consistency of the wall or the anchoring materials used by the installer.
As such pay close attention when mounting the units to avoid the potential for
serious injury to people or damage to property if carried out incorrectly.
When installing heat pump models, if no condensate line was built into the wall, it will be necessary
to drill a hole through the wall as shown on the template.

PREPARING THE CONDENSATE DISCHARGE (fig.7)
For heat pumps connect the unit to the condensate discharge pipe (supplied) by coupling it with the
specific vent on the back of the unit (remove cap 6a). When the max level is reached, a solenoid valve
ensures the condensate will flow out from the internal tray.
For AC units connect the condensate discharge pipe if you intend running the unit at low outdoor tem-
peratures below 23°C (73ºf). Since condensate drains by gravity, there must be a minimum slope of at
least 3% at every point of the discharge line.
Use a rigid or flexible tube having an inside diameter of at least 160 mm/6.3".
if the line empties into a sewerage system, assuming local and/or national codes allow the practice,
install a trap before the point in which the pipe reaches the main discharge, at least 300 mm/12" below
the inlet from the unit (fig. 8).
If the drainpipe drains into a vessel (tank or other container), this container should not be sealed, and the
drainpipe should not remain immersed in the water (see fig. 9). The hole through which the condensate
pipe passes should always slope towards the outside (see fig.5). The exact position in which to place
the pipe inlet, as compared to the unit, is shown on the drilling template.
Make certain the condensate disposed outside does not damage or disturb persons or property.
During cold weather when the ambient temperature drops below 32ºF the condensate may cause
sheets of ice to form. When the condensate lines are installed ensure you do not compress or kink
the rubber hose.
