To disassemble:
1. Remove access panels.
2. Remove both blower and coil assemblies. This will
lighten the cabinet for lifting.
3. Remove one screw from the left and right posts inside
the unit. Remove one screw from each side on the
back of the unit. Unit sections will now separate.
To reassemble:
1. Align cabinet sections together.
2. Reinstall screws.
3. Replace blower and coil assemblies.
4. Replace access panel.
UP−FLOW APPLICATION
Use the following procedures to configure the unit for
up−flow operations:
1. Remove access panels.
2. Remove and discard the horizontal drip shield (−060
model, used only on horizontal applications) and the
corrugated padding between the blower and coil
assembly.
3. The horizontal drain pan must be removed when the
coil blower is installed in the up−flow position.
Removing horizontal drain pain will allow proper
airflow and increase efficiency.
4. After removing horizontal drain pan, place the unit in
desired location. Set unit so that it is level. Connect
return and supply air plenums as required using sheet
metal screws as illustrated in figure 1.
5. Install units that have no return air plenum on a stand
that is at least 14" from the floor to allow for proper air
return. Lennox offers an optional up−flow unit stand as
listed in table 1.
