Helpful Notes
Professional installation required
Installation must be completed by a qualified HVAC professional. Improper installation can cause water leakage, electrical shock, or fire.
Mixing indoor unit types
Many Olympus multi-zone configurations allow mixing compatible indoor styles (wall mounts, ceiling cassettes, and concealed duct models). Confirm compatibility for your condenser model before ordering.
Line sets & wiring (options)
Line sets and communication wiring may be bundled depending on your selected options. If no installation kit is selected, they may not be included. Select the appropriate length for each indoor unit based on your layout.
Electrical & breaker sizing
Use MCA (30.5) and Max Fuse/Breaker (35) as starting points, then size per the installation manual and local code.
Line sizing
Indoor line sizes: 1/4 / 3/8 | 1/4 / 1/2. Confirm final line sizes, allowable lengths, and any additional charge requirements for your exact pairing before selecting line sets.
