1. INSTALLATION

Units are approved for closet or alcove installa-
tion with zero clearance to combustibles. Units
are designed to be installed either recessed into
a wall or hanging in a vertical "upfl ow" position.
If units are recessed in a wall, attachment to
the framing studs are through the inside of the
front fl ange. Air handlers are provided with an
offset hanging bracket attached to the rear of
the cabinet for hanging applications.
Units have a bottom and/or front return. Units
are shipped for installation in a front return
application. Front close-off panel (if supplied)
may be discarded. If installed in a bottom re-
turn application, attach bottom access to the
front of the unit below the top service panel or
close-off panel.
Units are equipped with primary and secondary
drains and both drains must be trapped. Failure
to install a trap could result in condensation
overfl owing the drain pan resulting in substantial
water damage to the nearby area.
Note: If you intend to install this unit with a
louvered door the unit must be mounted fl ush
or behind front edge of fi nished wall.
