Can I put a cover over the front of my outdoor unit to make it less visible?
The outdoor unit of a split system air conditioner requires adequate clearance in order to function correctly. Its performance depends upon efficient outdoor heat dispersal, so covering the unit will effect this.
Allowing at least 1 metre of clear space on each side of the air conditioner is a good rule of thumb to utilise.
If you would like to cover your outdoor unit, your Daikin Specialist Dealer can advise you on whether an ‘air deflector kit’ can be used for your particular system.
