Carrier INSTALLATION 26H
FIG. 14 - CORRECT WATER LEVEL
Turn on the water and set the float valve to main­
tain a water level 3/8 " below the top of the siphon
stcujdpipe for the 26H3 and 1/2" below for the 26H5.
See Fig. 14.
The water level should be set with the pump off,
and checked again with the pump running, after the
water level has settled. To check the Siphon action
let the unit run on "Pump" until the float shuts ofi
the water to the pan. Turn the selector switch to
"Off". The water in the header and the water pipes
will drop down and raise the water pan level until
the Siphon action begins and the water pan is si­
phoned out.
If the water pan fails to siphon out, the water level
has been set too low. If the water siphons or over­
flows the inner standpipe when the pump is running,
the water level has been set too high.
After the float is set, tighten the wing nut on the
float arm and the setscrew to the flat on the float
arm. See Fig. 15.

The bottom of the deflector sets in two clips fas­
tened to the inside front wall of the water pan. The
back of the ice deflector rests against the front of
the evaporator shroud. See Fig. 14.
