Unit Installation

Unit Location
These units are not designed for outdoor installation. Locate
the unit in an INDOOR area that allows enough space for
service personnel to perform typical maintenance or repairs.
The installation of water source heat pump units and all
associated components, parts and accessories which
make up the installation shall be in accordance with
the regulations of ALL authorities having jurisdiction
and MUST conform to all applicable codes. It is the
responsibility of the Installing Contractor to determine
Residential models using swivel piping fittings for water
connections are rated for 450 psi (3101 kPa) operating
pressure. The connections have a rubber gasket seal
similar to a garden hose gasket, which when mated to the
flush end of most 1" threaded male pipe fittings provides
a leak-free seal without the need for thread sealing tape or
joint compound. Insure that the rubber seal is in the swivel
connector prior to attempting any connection (rubber seals
are shipped attached to the swivel connector). DO NOT
OVER TIGHTEN or leaks may occur.
FPT Connections (Size 120)
Pipe joint compound is not necessary when Teflon threaded
tape is pre-applied to hose assemblies or when flared-end
connections are used. If pipe joint compound is preferred,
use compound only in small amounts on the pipe threads of
the fitting adapters. Prevent sealant from reaching the flared
surfaces of the joint.
Note: When anti-freeze is used in the loop, assure that it
is compatible with Teflon tape or pipe joint
compound employed.
Maximum allowable torque for brass fittings is 30 ft-lbs [41
N-m]. If a torque wrench is not available, tighten finger-tight
plus one quarter turn. Tighten steel fittings
as necessary.

WATER CONNECTION INSTALLATION

®
and comply with ALL applicable codes and regulations.
Locate the unit in an indoor area that allows easy removal of
access panels, and has enough space for service personnel
to perform maintenance or repair. Provide sufficient room to
make water and electrical connections.. Any access panel
screws that would be difficult to remove after the unit is
installed should be removed prior to setting the unit. These
units are not approved for outdoor installation and, therefore,
must be installed inside the structure being conditioned.
Do not locate in areas subject to freezing or where humidity
levels can cause cabinet condensation.
The female locking ring is threaded onto the pipe threads
which holds the male pipe end against the rubber gasket,
and seals the joint. HAND TIGHTEN ONLY! DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN!
