Model VSU Make-Up Air

®

Burner/Blower Section

Use a crane and a spreader bar hooked to the factory
lifting lugs (shown below)

to lift and center the unit onto

the filter stand section. The sections should be caulked
together.

Install Ductwork

This table shows the duct sizes and straight lengths
recommended for optimal performance (AMCA
Publication 201-90). Using duct sizes less than
recommended will affect fan performance. Good
duct installation practices should be followed for the
remaining ductwork.

Concrete Slab and Unit Footprint

Concrete Slab

The first step in unit installation is to pour a concrete
slab capable of holding the unit weight as a base. The
slab should have a proper gravel drainage bed.

Service and Access Clearance

The slab should be positioned to allow 3 feet of
clearance on the control end of the unit and 2 feet of
clearance on the other three sides. Housing size 50
requires 3 feet of clearance on both ends because of
filters access. Note that the concrete forms a 1 foot
wide apron on all four sides of the unit unless a 42 in.
extension is added to the control end of the unit.

NOTE

If optional service platform is included, a minimum of
42 inches must be added to Dimension B.

Clearance to combustibles is defined as the minimum distance required
between the heater and adjacent combustible surfaces to ensure the
adjacent surface’s temperature does not exceed 90 degrees above the
ambient temperature.
