Pre-Installation

Receiving and Handling

Inspection

Upon delivery, thoroughly inspect all components for any
shipping damage that may have occurred, and confirm
that the shipment is complete. See
section for detailed instructions.
Note: Delivery cannot be refused. All units are shipped
F.O.B. factory. Trane is not responsible for shipping
damage.

Packaging/Shipping

Performance air handlers ship as a complete unit or in
individual sections to be field assembled. Indoor air
handler sections are stretch-wrapped or shrink-wrapped
before shipping. All factory shipping protection should be
removed upon delivery. This wrapping is for transit
protection only.
Indoor Performance air handlers ship in subassemblies if
the total length of the units exceeds 98 inches or if the total
weight exceeds factory limits.
Outdoor Performance air handler sections are not
wrapped, but openings are covered to comply with LEED
EQ Credit 5.
Smaller components and hardware may be shipped
separately, or shipped inside the unit. This hardware is
typically packaged in a clear plastic envelope or cardboard
box, and can be found inside the fan, mixing box, or access
section.

Identification

Each air handler section includes a nameplate identifying
the section type and functional components, customer
tagging information, unit serial number, unit order
number, the build-section position for installation, and the
unit model number. See
"Nameplate," p. 6.

Handling

Air handlers have an integral base frame designed with
the necessary number of lift points for safe installation.
See
"Lifting and Rigging," p.

 Check to ensure that the shipment is complete. Small
