Supply and return air flanges are provided on the roof
curb for easy duct installation. All ductwork must be
run and attached to the curb before the unit is set into
place.

Follow these guidelines for ductwork construction:
Connections to the unit should be made with three (3)
inch canvas connectors to minimize noise and vibration
transmission.
Elbows with turning vanes or splitters are
recommended to minimize air noise and resistance.
The first elbow in the ductwork leaving the unit should
be no closer than two (2) feet from the unit, to minimize
noise and resistance.
To prevent leaking, do not attach the ductwork to the
bottom of the unit base. Refer to the bottom example in
