The correction factor of height between indoor unit and outdoor unit
Height difference
Factor
To ensure correct unit selection, consider the farthest indoor unit.
:
NOTE
1.
Above data is assuming that the height difference between indoor unit and outdoor unit is 0m.
2.
Be sure to minimize length of connection pipes to optimize performance. If the outdoor unit is installed higher
or lower than the indoor unit, it is necessary to apply height correction factor additionally to length correction
factor to calculate cooling/heating.
If outdoor unit is higher, correction should be applied to cooling capacity, if outdoor unit is lower, correction
should be applied to heating capacity.

5.3 Correction factors according to defrosting operation

The heating capacity in the previous part, excludes the condition of defrosting operation period. In
consideration of defrosting operation, the heating capacity is corrected by the equation below.
Corrected heating capacity = Defrost Correction factor x unit capacity
