Complete the following checks before installation.
1. Consult local building codes and the NEC (National Elec-
trical Code) ANSI/NFPA 70 for special installation
requirements.
2. Determine unit location (from project plans) or select unit
location.
3. Check for possible overhead obstructions which may
interfere with unit lifting or rigging.

Step 1 — Plan for Unit Location
Select a location for the unit and its support system (curb or
other) that provides for the minimum clearances required for
safety (including clearance to combustible surfaces), unit per-
formance and service access below, around and above unit as
specified in unit drawings. See Fig. 4.
NOTE: Consider also the effect of adjacent units.
Unit may be installed directly on wood flooring or on Class A,
B, or C roof-covering material when roof curb is used.
Do not install unit in an indoor location. Do not locate air inlets
near exhaust vents or other sources of contaminated air.
Although unit is weatherproof, avoid locations that permit wa-
ter from higher level runoff and overhangs to fall onto unit.
Select a unit mounting system that provides adequate height to
allow installation of condensate trap per requirements. Refer to
Step 10 — Install External Condensate Trap and Line on page
14 for required trap dimensions.
