Pre-Installation Requirements

Assembly Hardware

Trane air handlers ship with all necessary assembly hardware and gasket material. This hardware
is packaged in either a clear plastic envelope or cardboard box and can be found inside the fan,
mixing box, or access module. If there is not enough space inside the module, a crate or pallet will

present. Sometimes it is necessary to use more than one section to ship hardware. Please check
