Can model number TPKA0A0241KA80A Trane/ Mitsubishi Electric mini split be installed in a shower stall

1 comments:

Mr. Anderson

February 10, 2025

The service manual does not provide specific information about installing the Mitsubishi mini split model TPKA0A0241KA80A in a shower stall. However, HVAC indoor units are generally not designed for installation in high-humidity environments like shower stalls due to potential electrical hazards and damage from moisture. It is recommended to follow the manufacturer's guidelines and consult a professional installer for proper placement.
