SAFETY WARNING
All factory provided lifting lugs must
be used when lifting the units . Failure
to comply with this safety precaution
could result in property damage,
serious injury, or death .
Unit weights assume indirect evap, direct evap, and IG furnace .
All dimensions shown are in inches .
Position the unit roof opening such that the supply discharge and exhaust inlet of the unit will line up with the
corresponding ductwork . Be sure to allow for the recommended service clearances when positioning opening
(see Service Clearances) . Do not face the outdoor air inlet of the unit into prevailing wind and keep the supply
inlet of the unit away from any other exhaust fans . Likewise, position the exhaust discharge opening away from
fresh air intakes of any other equipment .
When cutting only duct openings, cut opening 1 inch (25mm) larger than duct size to allow clearance for
installation . Area enclosed by roof curb must comply with clearance to combustible materials . If the roof is
constructed of combustible materials, area within the roof curb must be ventilated, left open, or covered with
non-combustible material which has an ÒRÓ value of at least 5 . If area within curb is open, higher radiated
sound levels may result .
Where the supply or warm air duct passes thru a combustible roof, a clearance of one inch must be maintained
between the outside edges of the duct and combustible material in accordance with NFPA Standard 90A.
