5 Things to know before installation
The installation location is critical
Handle the refrigerant pipes perfectly
Bundle the line set correctly
Vacuum pumping the refrigerant circuit
Safe electrical connection
Not all places are created equal. Only proper placement of the AC will maximize ecency while balancing the interior
aesthetic. As wall requires for the installation, you need to make sure to get the placement and location right the rst time.

Thank You for trusting Della as your home comfort solution. We know no better how exicting it must be to have a new and functional AC to make
your living space more comfortable. But AC installation, in reality, is far from being simple. Here are a few things you must know before installing
the AC whether by yourself or by a professional HVAC technician. This will give you an idea of what to look out for installing an AC so that it can
perform at its maximum eciency and every dollar you invest in it pays o.
The refrigerant pipe is one of the most important, if not the most important, parts of the mini split AC system. So, be
sure to understand what the entire process entails. You might need special-purpose tools to shorten and bend the
pipe. Purchaseing lengthening pipes to match your connection might also be necessary. Any ow in the handling of the
refrigerant pipes may cause a refrigerant leak or reduced eciency. The cost to repair or re-install the refrigerant pipe
can quickly frustrate and upset any DIYer, especially when trying to save money by not hiring a professional. Additional
refrigerant might also be needed if you used lengthening pipes or nd any leaks during your install. Further more, it's
always a good idea to test for any refrigerant leaks after completing your installation by using soapy spray or professional
detector tools. Please contact us if you need extra refrigerant.
-22-
The line set contains the refrigerant pipes, drain hose, and electrical wires. A good bundling prevent water condensation
and protects it from extermal elements, as well as matching the exact distance of the installation. No one wants extra line
set dangling around.
-18, 30-
Mini-split AC absolutely needs vacuum pumping in order to perform ecently and prevent refrigerant from reacting with
air moisture and damaing the internal parts of the machine. With a vacuum pump and a micron gauge, the process does
not take very long, but it is important to do it right.
-26-
A safe and properly electrical connection is crucial necessity for the installation. The voltage, power breaker protection,
cable requirement and wiring must correspond to the specications of each model. A poor connection can quickly
becomes a re hazard.

Most of the problems emerge from incorrect or poor installation. Installation performed by professional HVAC technician can greatly
reduce the chance of having problems for years to come. On top of that, Della provide extended warranty for professional installation.

• Read this guide before installation. Failure to follow the safety instructions may result in property damage, serious injury, or death.
• Please Keep this manual.
Danger:
Indicates an IMMINENTLY hazardous situation that, if not avoided, will result in death, serious injury, or serious property damage.
Warning:
Indicates an POTENTIALLY hazardous situation that, if not avoided, will result in death, serious injury, or serious property damage.
Caution:
Indicates an POTENTIALLY hazardous situation that, if not avoided, will result in minor to moderate injury. It may also be used to
indicate unsafe practice.
About Refrigerant
Attention:
Pay additional attention to the instruction.
DO NOT:
Indicates prohibited actions and / or practice.
• The air conditioner is pre-charged with refrigerant. Handle the air conditioner with care and check if there is any
refrigerant leakage during installation. Refrigerants have no odor and can be toxic and ammable. Rapid evaporation of
refrigerant may cause frostbite, cardiac arrhythmia, and / or irritation, as well as cause environmental damage.
• In the case of refrigerant leakage, shut down the appliance and disconnect from the power supply. An inspection must
be performed by a qualied technician.
• R32 refrigerant should be treated with care. Charge amount of refrigerant should straightly followed according to the
manufacture spec, local codes and safety requirements. Read the table below for room space to refrigerant charge ratio
requirement.
• The total refrigerant charge should be calculated by adding the precharge amount and additional amount.

Secure the Outdoor Unit (Wall Installation)
1. Drainage joint installation is recommended for heat pump models.
2. Insert a drainage joint into the bottom hole of the outdoor unit.
3. Connect one end of the drain hose (not included) to the joint and the other end to your desired drainage point.
1. Measure the distance between the outdoor unit’s legs.
2. Mount the wall mounting bracket on the wall.
3. Secure the outdoor unit on the wall mounting bracket.
The outdoor unit can be fixed on a wall mounting bracket if there is no ground mounting option.
Outdoor unit drainage helps prevent condensation or frost inside the unit during cold weather.
Wall Mount Bracket
(Not Included)
• The wall mounting bracket and the wall must be able to support at least 4 times the weight of the outdoor unit.

1. Unroll the included refrigerant pipes.
2. Remove the cover and make sure the ports are clean and smooth.
3. In the case of a imperfect flaring or the pipe needs to be shorten for the installation, refrigerant pipe should be cut and flare by qualified
technician.

Imperfect Flaring Dirty Flaring
• Do not pull the refrigerant pipe to prevent the pipe from kinking or bending.
• Use a pipe bender or spring bender to shape the refrigerant pipes along wall and corners. Bending the pipe without bending tools
would easily kink or damage the pipe, which would cause refrigerant starvation, or leakage in the system.

Cutting and Flaring Refrigerant Pipe
1. Cut the copper pipe with a pipe cutter.
2. Remove any burrs or rough edges with a reamer with the pipe facing downward.
NOTE: The opening of the pipe must face toward the ground to prevent chips or dust from entering the pipe.
3. Insert the flare nut to the pipe.
4. Use the flaring tool to flare the copper pipe. The flaring angle must match to that of the refrigerant lines from the unit.

3. Connect a the vacuum pump to the other end of the charging
hose and the micron gauge in between the service port and the
pump.
4. Open the valve adapter on the charging set, then turn on the
vacuum pump to vacuum the system.
5. Let the vacuum pump run until the micron gauge indicate the
value of 500 micron or lower.
6. Close the valve adapter on the charging set and turn off the
vacuum pump.
7. Leave the system connected with the micron gauge for 5
minutes, then make sure the gauge indication does not exceed
500 micron.
NOTE: In the case of a leak, and the micron level increases above
500 micron, reconnect all the connection joints on the refrigerant
line, and redo the vacuum pumping.
8. Disconnect the pressure hose and the micron gauge from the
service port.
9. The air conditioner comes with enough refrigerant for the

Before Using
Avoid placing TV, radio or large furniture under the air
conditioner.
Avoid putting plants or objects around the outdoor unit.
Close windows and blinds.
Avoid direct wind flow to people, pets, or plants.
Follow cleaning and maintenance routine. DO NOT manually adjust the deflector and flaps.
• It may block wind flow or interfere with the remote control. • It may lower the air conditioner efficiency or cause malfunction.
• The air conditioner can cool or warm the area with better
efficiency.
• Expose to direct wind flow for extended period of time may
have a negative impact on your health.
• Regular cleaning and maintenance are needed for the best
efficiency and prevent bad odor or water leak.
• It may cause injury to the user and damages to the air
conditioner.
