SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installation and servicing of air-conditioning equipment
can be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical com
ponents. 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
personnel. When working on air-conditioning equipment,
observe precautions in the literature, tags and labels at
tached 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 extinguishers available for all brazing operations.
A WARNING
Before performing service or maintenance operations
on unit, turn off main power switch to unit. Electrical
shock could cause personal injury.
Step 1
INSTALLATION
Provide Unit Support
ROOF CURB — Assemble and install accessory roof curb
in accordance with instructions shipped with the curb.
Accessory roof curb and information required to field
fabricate a roof curb are shown in Fig I and 2. Install in
sulation, cant strips, roofing, and counter flashing as shown.
Ductwork can be secured to roof curb before unit is set in
place.
IMPORTANT' The gasketing of the unit to the roof
curb is critical for watertightness Install gasket sup
plied with the roof curb as shown in Fig. 1. Improp
erly applied gasket can result in air leaks and poor
unit performance.
Curb should be level. This is necessary to permit unit
drain to function properly Unit leveling tolerance is
± Vi6 in. per linear ft in any direction. Refer to Accessory
Roof Curb Installation Instructions for additional informa
tion as required.
ALTERNATE UNIT SUPPORT - When the curb cannot
be used, support unit with sleepers using unit curb support
area. If sleepers cannot be used, support long sides of unit
with a minimum of 3 equally spaced 4-in. x 4-in. pads on
each side.
Step 2 — Rig and Place Unit
— Inspect unit for
transportation damage. File any claim with transportation
agency. Keep unit upright, and do not drop. Use spreader
bars over unit to prevent sling or cable damage. Rollers
may be used to move unit across a roof. Level by using unit
frame as a reference; leveling tolerance is ± l/i6 in. per lin
ear ft in any direction. See Fig. 1 for additional leveling
tolerance information. Unit weight is shown in Table 1.
Four lifting holes are provided in ends of unit base rails
as shown in Fig. 3 Refer to rigging instructions on unit.
POSITIONING — Provide clearance around and above unit
for airflow, safety, and service access (Fig. 4).
Do not install unit in an indoor location. Do not locate
air inlets near exhaust vents or other sources of contam
inated air.
Although unit is weatherproof, guard against water from
higher level runoff and overhangs.
ROOF MOUNT — Check building codes for weight dis
tribution requirements.
Manufacturer reserves the right to discontinue, or change at any time, specifications or designs without notice and without incurring obligations.
