Re: Split aircon unit, info required

["John McManus" <john.mcmanus@xxxxxxx>]

When I fitted mine I disconnected the outside unit, then measured the ACTUAL size of the opening required to pass the umbilical through the wall... marked out a 4x3 cm opening & used a drill to go through both brick walls.  Drilled about 14 of the holes, then used a lump hammer & chisel to take out the bit of brick in the middle.  I did get asked by my neighbour if I wanted any help (had my arm stuck through the small opening trying to fish out one of the bits of brick, while 15' up a ladder).

How big a hole is required for the pipe between the units? 

 

<<8cm dia according to the book.>>

 

 Does the outside box require electrical connections too? 

 

<<Not exactly ... it does but these are carried in the 2m "umbilical" that connects the two units>>
