Start-Up Checklist

The following is a comprehensive check list for possible components on your unit.

Exterior, look for damage to housing, doors, handles,

fittings, etc.

Verify proper drain trap installation, if applicable.

Interior, look for damage to fans, exchanger, flue, media,

coils, cells, etc.

Inspect all coils within the unit. Fins may get damaged

in transit or during construction. Carefully straighten fins
with a fin comb.

Remove all foreign material from unit.

Check that all ducts, dampers and registers are set.

Check for any loose electrical connections.

Check that all openings and penetrations are sealed.

Check circuit breaker disconnect mechanisms/

mechanical interlocks work properly.

Check fan rotation.

Disconnect and lock-out all power switches.

Rotate each fan wheel by hand to ensure it spins freely.

Verify control wire gauge.

Tighten all fasteners.

Ensure all system components are adjusted to proper

settings (temperature, amperage).

Tighten all set screws and lock collars for each: fans,

bearings, motors, dampers and accessories.

Verify diameter seal settings on the energy recovery

wheel.

Replace any dirty pleated filters and clean any aluminum

mesh filters.

Check condensing fans for any damage or

misalignment. Spin the blades and make sure they
don’t contact any parts and are free-turning without
any resistance.

Verify that non-motorized dampers open and close

properly.

Check the fan belt drives for proper alignment and

tension.

Look over the refrigerant piping system. Inspect for

oil at all tubing connections. Oil typically highlights a
leak in the system.

This unit contains a crankcase heater for each

compressor which needs power supplied to it
24 hours prior to start-up. If start-up is scheduled in
24 hours, unlock the disconnect power and energize
unit.

After power has been applied for 24 hours, verify

that all crankcase heaters are heating properly. Either
check the amp draw on each heater or touch the
compressor near the top to verify that the heater is
warming the compressor. Do not touch the crankcase
heater, it will cause burns.
