A. GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING
!
SAFETY HAZARD
THIS INFORMATION IS FOR USE BY INDIVIDUALS
HAVING ADEQUATE BACKGROUNDS OF ELECTRICAL
AND MECHANI CAL EXPERIENCE. ANY ATTEMPT TO
REPAIR A CENTRAL AIR CONDITIONING PRODUCT
MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROP-
ERTY DAMAGE. THE MANUFACTURER OR SELLER
CANNOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE INTERPRETA-
TION OF THIS INFORMATION, NOR CAN IT ASSUME
ANY LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH ITS USE.
CAUTION
!
To prevent shortening its service life, the air handler
should not be used during the finishing phases of con-
struction. The low return air temperatures can lead to
the formation of condensate. Condensate in the pres-
ence of chlorides and fluorides from paint, varnish,
stains, adhesives, cleaning compounds, and cement
creates a corrosive condition which may cause rapid
deterioration of the cabinet and internal components.
These instructions do not cover all variations in sys-
tems or provide for every possible contingency. Should
further information be desired or particular problems
arise which are not covered sufficiently by this manu-
al, contact your local distributor or the manufacturer
as listed on the air handler nameplate.
These air handlers are shipped from the factory in the
upflow or horizontal right configuration and are fully
convertible to downflow or horizontal left. Refer to Sec-
tion B beginning on page 3 for additional information.
INSPECTION
Check carefully for any shipping damage. This must be
reported to and claims made against the transporta-
tion company immediately. Check to be sure all major
components are in the unit. Any missing parts should
be reported to your supplier at once, and replaced with
authorized parts only.

CAUTION
!
Cardboard packing material must be removed from in-

INSTALLATION LIMITATIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS
The general location of the air handler is normally
selected by the architect, contractor and/or home own-
er for the most effective application and satisfaction.
NOTE: CONDENSATION MAY OCCUR ON THE SUR-
FACE OF THE AIR HANDLER WHEN INSTALLED IN AN
UNCONDITIONED LOCATION. WHEN UNITS ARE IN-
STALLED IN UNCONDITIONED SPACES, VERIFY THAT
ALL ELECTRICAL AND REFRIGERANT LINE PENE-
TRATIONS ON THE AIR HANDLER ARE SEALED COM-
