1. Mount it level - The condensing unit must be mounted so that it is level when the boat is at
rest. It can be mounted either fore/aft or athwart ships and can operate for extended periods of
time at full heel when mounted to be level at rest. Also be sure to mount it on a non-resonating
platform. (This is a Prestart Checkout Item)
2. Ventilate it - Ensure that the area is reasonably well ventilated particularly if the space is
small. Even though your system is water-cooled, the compressor and electronics can generate a
significant amount of heat. Small, unventilated spaces (< 5 cubic feet) do not permit the heat to
be properly dissipated. In these spaces it is important to have a means to permit heated air to
flow out of the cabinet. On systems incorporating the Arctic Air option a greater amount of air
circulation is required since it is assumed they will be running for longer periods of time. Engine
room locations are not advised unless it is very well ventilated. The temperature in the
compartment must not rise above 130 degrees F (55 C) (This is a Prestart Checkout Item)
3. Service it - Ensure access to those areas of the compressor unit which will require periodic
maintenance. At a bare minimum this means access to the front for the circuit breakers, wiring,
sight glass, Rotalock valves, zinc and seawater tubing and some access to both sides to provide
access to the base retention screws (see diagram below). It is also a very good idea to have
enough access to the cover screws. To reach the condenser you need to have good access to
the back and right sides with an allen key (3/32" hex wrench).
Raw Water Pump
1. Intake water access can be obtained by teeing into almost any existing raw water intake lines
including head, galley, engine, water maker or deck wash. If the engine intake is used the tee
should be made as close to the thru-hull as possible. The Micro HPS is designed to use ½ “
water hose.
2. Leave room for a suitable seawater strainer. If one does not already exist it will have to be
added. The strainer will need to be checked for periodic cleaning so make sure you can get to it.

3. The supplied Whale pump may be mounted above or below the waterline. It is adjusted to
the minimum pressure setting.
4. The pump does create vibration when running. Do not mount it to any bulkhead or platform
which may amplify pump noise into the cabin interior. (This is a Prestart Checkout Item)
5. Route water discharge above the waterline so that water flow can be observed, but not so
high that it splashes.
Control "T" Solenoid Assembly
1. The control “T” assembly is included on systems with more than one zone. It may be
mounted in any position.
2. Control “T” assemblies may be secured into position using tube mounting connectors
(available from most hardware stores) over the tubing. Depending on the mounting location, it is
usually necessary to first screw (or epoxy) a wooden mounting block in place to which you may
attach the control "T" assembly.
