Core drilling
What is core drilling?
Core drilling is a process in which a cylindrical hole is drilled into the wall to feed through refrigerant lines or pipes. This enables a clean and professional installation of air conditioning units without having to carry out major alterations.
In the case of the Klima Pingu, these core drillings are mandatory for split units and air conditioning systems without Unico brand outdoor units. For all other devices, the lines can also pass through window openings using a window guide.
When is core drilling required?
There are two differences in the use of core drillings with regard to the Klima Pingu devices.
Refrigerant piping
With Air conditioners with outdoor units (e.g. split appliances) and the Ulisse 13, the core drill holes are used for the refrigerant lines. As the Ulisse 13 is a mobile device, it does not necessarily require a core drill hole, but can also be routed through a window opening.
Size for drill holes:
| Split units (Gree & Daikin) | 60-120mm |
| Ulisse 13 | 55mm |
Warm air
With Klimanlagen ohne Aussengeräte or with flexible hose (e.g. Daven & GPC), the core holes are used to transport the warm air from the inside to the outside. Appliances with a flexible hose can also be routed through a window opening.
Size for drill holes:
| Orion Daven & Gree GPC | 160mm |
| Unico devices | 2x 200mm |
