Step 9 — Install Duct Connections
The unit has duct flanges on the supply-- and return--air openings
on the side and bottom of the unit. For downshot applications, the
ductwork connects to the roof curb (See Fig. 3 and 4 for
connection sizes and locations).
Configuring Units for Downflow (Vertical) Discharge
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury or death.
Before installing or servicing system, always turn off main
power to system and install lockout tag. There may be
more than one disconnect switch.
!
WARNING
1. Open all electrical disconnects before starting any service
work.
2. Remove horizontal (metal) duct covers to access vertical
(downflow) discharge duct knockouts in unit base.
3. Use a screwdriver and hammer to remove the panels in the
bottom of the unit base (See Fig. 10).
4. If unit ductwork is to be attached to vertical opening flanges
on the unit base (jackstand applications only), do so at this
time.
PROPERTY DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in property
damage.
Collect ALL screws that were removed. Do not leave
screws on rooftop as permanent damage to the roof may
occur.
CAUTION
!
5. It is recommended that the base insulation around the
perimeter of the vertical return--air opening be secured to
the base with aluminum tape. Applicable local codes may
require aluminum tape to prevent exposed fiberglass.
6. Cover both horizontal duct openings with the provided duct
covers. Ensure opening is air-- and watertight.
7. After completing unit conversion, perform all safety checks
and power up unit.
NOTE: The design and installation of the duct system must be in
accordance with the standards of the NFPA for installation of
nonresidence--type air conditioning and ventilating systems, NFPA
90A or residence--type, NFPA 90B; and/or local codes and
ordinances.
