Step 3 — Field Fabricate Ductwork — Secure all
ducts to building structure. Use flexible duct connectors be­
tween unit and ducts as required. 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
insulated and covered with a vapor barrier.
The 50HJ units with electric heat require a 1-in. clear­
ance for the first 24 in. of ductwork.
Outlet grilles must not lie directly below unit discharge.
Step 4 — Make Unit Duct Connections - Unit
is shipped for through-the-bottom duct connections. Duct­
work openings are shown in Fig. 5. Field-fabricated con­
centric ductwork may be connected as shown in Fig. 6 and
7. Attach all ductwork to roof curb and roof curb basepans.
Refer to installation instructions shipped with accessory roof
curb for more information.
Step 5 — Trap Condensate Drain — See Fig. 4
and 8 for drain location. Plug is provided in drain hole and
must be removed when unit is operating. One V4-in. half
NOTE. Do not drill in this area, as damage to basepan may resuit in

‘/2 in x %-in. diameter nip­
ple and a 2-in. x %-in. diameter pipe nipple are coupled to
standard Y4-in. diameter elbows to provide a straight path
down through holes in unit base rails (see Fig. 9). A trap at
least 4-in. deep must be used.
