This architectural drawing is Drawing of air passage in air conditioner with detailing. It is recommended that the indoor unit of the split AC has at least 10 - 15 cm of open space around its top and sides. This is needed for proper air flow. The general rule of thumb is to have at least one foot (or 12 inches) of clearance on each side of your air conditioner. Your air conditioner's manufacturer may have specific clearance recommendations, but they'll generally recommend between 12 and 24 inches. Keep the distance between the two as close as possible to facilitate faster flow of your unit's coolant. The indoor and outdoor units should not be separated by more than 15 metres or cooling will be greatly affected. For more details and information download the drawing file.
