SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Installation and servicing of air-conditioning equipment can
be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical compo-
nents. Only trained and qualified service personnel should
install, repair, or service air-conditioning equipment.

Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance func-
tions of cleaning coils and filters and replacing filters. All
other operations should be performed by trained service per-
sonnel. When working on air-conditioning equipment,
observe precautions in the literature, tags and labels
attached to the unit, and other safety precautions that may
apply.

Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work gloves.
Use quenching cloth for unbrazing operations. Have fire
extinguisher available for all brazing operations.

INSTALLATION

Unit is shipped in the vertical discharge configuration. To
convert to horizontal configuration, remove horizontal duct
opening covers. Using the same screws, install covers on duct
openings in basepan of unit with the insulation-side down.
Seals around duct openings must be tight.

I. STEP 1 — PROVIDE UNIT SUPPORT

A. Roof Curb

Assemble and install accessory roof curb in accordance with
instructions shipped with curb. See Fig. 1. Install insulation,
cant strips, roofing felt, and counter flashing as shown. Duct-
work must be attached to curb, not to the unit.
If electric or
control power is to be routed through the basepan, attach the
accessory thru-the-bottom service connections to the
basepan and roof curb in accordance with the accessory
installation instructions. Connections must be installed
before unit is set on roof curb.

IMPORTANT: The gasketing of the unit to the roof curb is
critical for watertightness. Install gasket supplied with the
roof curb as shown in Fig. 1. Improperly applied gasket can
also result in air leaks and poor unit performance.

Curb should be level. This is necessary for unit drain to func-
tion properly. Unit leveling tolerances are shown in Fig. 2.
Refer to Accessory Roof Curb Installation Instructions for
additional information as required.

B. Slab Mount (Horizontal Units Only)

Provide a level concrete slab that extends a minimum of 6 in.
beyond unit cabinet. Install a gravel apron in front of con-
denser coil air inlet to prevent grass and foliage from
obstructing airflow.

NOTE: Horizontal units may be installed on a roof curb if
required.

II. STEP 2 — FIELD FABRICATE DUCTWORK

Secure all ducts to roof curb and building structure on verti-
cal discharge units. Do not connect ductwork to unit. For hor-
izontal applications, field-supplied flanges should be
attached to horizontal discharge openings and all ductwork
should be attached to the flanges. Insulate and weatherproof
all external ductwork, joints, and roof openings with counter
flashing and mastic in accordance with applicable codes.

Ducts passing through an unconditioned space must be insu-
lated and covered with a vapor barrier.

WARNING:

CAUTION:

Ensure voltage listed on unit data

plate agrees with electrical supply provided for the
unit.
