6 | Installation
1.
Be sure that the location chosen for unit installation
provides ambient temperatures maintained above
freezing.
2.
Be sure the installation location is isolated from
sleeping areas, private offices and other acoustically
sensitive spaces.
3.
Be sure unit is mounted at a height sufficient to
provide an adequate slope of the condensate lines.
If an appropriate slope cannot be achieved, a field-
supplied condensate pump may be required.
4.
On horizontal units, allow adequate room below the
unit for condensate drain trap and do not locate the
unit above supply piping.
5.
Provide sufficient space for duct connection. do not
allow the weight of the duct work to rest on the unit.
6.
Provide adequate clearance for filter replacement
and drain pan cleaning. Do not allow piping,
conduit, etc. To block filter access.
7.
Provide sufficient access to allow maintenance and
servicing of the fan and fan motor, compressor and
coils. Removal of the entire unit from the closet
should not be necessary.
8.
Provide an unobstructed path to the unit within the
closet or mechanical room. Space should be
sufficient to allow return air to freely enter the
space.
9.
Provide ready access to water valves, fittings, and
screwdriver access to unit side panels, discharge
collar, and all electrical connections.
10. Where access to side panels is limited, pre-removal
of the control box side mounting screws may be
necessary for future servicing.
Protection
Once the units are properly positioned on the job site,
cover them with either a shipping carton, vinyl film, or an
equivalent protective covering. Cap opens ends of pipes
stored on the job site. This precaution is especially
important in areas where painting, plastering or spraying
of fireproof material, etc. Is not yet complete. Foreign
material that accumulates within the units can prevent
proper start-up and require costly clean-up operations.
Before installing any of the systems components, be
sure to examine each pipe, fitting valves and remove any
dirt or foreign material found in or on these components.
Inspect Unit
1.
Compare the electrical data on the unit nameplate
with ordering and shipping information to verify that
the correct unit has been shipped.
2.
Verify that the unit is the correct model for the
entering water temperature of the job.
3.
Do not remove the packaging until the unit is ready
for installation.
4.
Verify that the refrigerant tubing is free of kinks or
dents, and that it does not touch other unit
components.
5.
Inspect all electrical connections. Be sure
connections are clean and tight at the terminals.
6.
Remove any blower support styrofoam from
underneath the blower.

7.
Remove any shipping brackets from the unit
attached to the pallet.
Step 3- Locate the Unit
Locate the unit in an indoor area that allows easy access
to the filter, front access panel and blower access panel,
and has enough room for service personnel to perform
maintenance and repair work. Provide sufficient room to
make fluid, electrical and duct work connections.
Locate the unit in conditioned space and avoid
installation in corrosive environments.
If the unit is installed in a confined space, such as a
closet, provisions must be made for return air to freely
enter the face of the unit's air coil.
Unit condensate drains are not internally trapped.
Allow room below the unit base for horizontal and
counter flow models for an adequate condensate trap.
NOTICE: These units are not approved for
outdoor installation; therefore, they must
be installed inside the structure being
conditioned space. Do not locate in areas
that are subject to freezing.
NOTICE: Do not locate the unit above
supply piping.
Do not locate the unit in areas subject to
freezing or in areas subject to temperature
or humidity extremes.
NOTICE: LV series packaged units are not
approved for outdoor installation. Units
must be installed in conditioned space that
is not subject to extremes of temperature or
humidity to avoid cabinet sweating and/or
equipment damage.
NOTICE: Do not use LV series units for
temporary heating, air conditioning or
ventilation during construction, especially
when plastering, sanding or painting. Care
should be taken to avoid introduction of
dust, paint or debris into the air coil.
