Handling; Lifting - Greenheck ERCH-20 Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual

Handling

While this unit was constructed with quality and
dependability in mind, damage still may occur during
handling of the unit for installation. Exercise extreme
caution to prevent any damage from occurring to the
refrigerant system. This unit could contain a system
pressurized with refrigerant that, if damaged, could
leak into the atmosphere or cause bodily harm due to
the extreme cold nature of expanding refrigerant. Use
protective equipment such as gloves and safety glasses
to minimize or prevent injury in case of a system leak
during installation.
The system design and installation should follow
accepted industry practice, such as described in
the ASHRAE Handbook. Adequate space should be
left around the unit for piping coils and drains, filter
replacement, and maintenance. Sufficient space should
be provided on the side of the unit for routine service
and component removal should that become necessary.
