Installation Instructions - Option AS2, 100% Outside Air Hood
Refer to
FIGURE 8. All screw ends except those across the bottom should be inside
the air hood.
To avoid possible damage, it is recommended that the outside air hood be installed
after the system has been placed on the roof. The air hood should be installed before
the heater is operated. Do not install the hood while the system (furnace or blower) is
in operation.
1. Top Panel - On the air inlet side of the blower cabinet, remove the factory-installed
screws attaching the blower cabinet top. Slide the air hood
top panel underneath
the edge of the blower cabinet top.
The edge of the air hood top panel must be
between the blower cabinet top and the end panel. Reinsert all of the sheet-
metal screws.

2. Side Panels - Slide the air hood right side panel into the groove in the blower cabinet end panel. Be sure that the
side panel is underneath and to the inside of the air hood top panel. Attach to the blower cabinet and the air hood
top using the required number of sheetmetal screws. Repeat with the left side panel.
3. Bottom Panel - Position the air hood bottom panel so that it is to the inside of the two side panels and above the
factory-installed support angle. Attach to the side panels.
If the bottom panel does not rest tightly against the support angle, follow these instructions to adjust the position of
the support angle:
a) Slightly loosen (do not remove the screws).
b) Slide the support angle up so that it is against the bottom panel.
c) Tighten the screws.
Attach the support angle to the air hood bottom panel. The bottom panel of the air hood and the support angle should
be tight together; do not draw with the sheetmetal screws.
4. Louver Assembly - With the intake screen toward the inside of the hood position the pre-assembled vertical louver
assembly in the inlet opening of the air hood. Using the remaining sheetmetal screws, attach the louver assembly
to the air hood side panels at the holes.
