ES SPLIT INSTALLATION MANUAL General Installation Information Safety Considerations Before performing service or maintenance operations on a system, turn off main power WARNING: switches to both units. Turn off accessory heater power switch if applicable. Electrical shock could cause personal injury. Installing and servicing heating and air conditioning equipment can be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical components.
ES SPLIT INSTALLATION MANUAL Water Piping Residential ES split units are supplied standard with brass water connections which will connect to optional internal loop pump(s) or 3-way valves. The 3-way valves can be adapted to threaded, barb, or fusion fi ttings. Flush and fi ll adapters are available separately.

ES SPLIT INSTALLATION MANUAL Water Piping (cont.) Open Loop - Well Water Systems CAUTION: Although the unit is approved for outdoor installations, the use of this product is prohibited in open loop applications unless installed indoors. Open Loop Applications To provide a copper sweat connection for water line piping, remove the brass connectors from the unit. This can be done with a tube cutter or torch.
ES SPLIT INSTALLATION MANUAL Heat Recovery Unit for Domestic Hot Water Service valves have been provided inside the unit for connecting the discharge gas line to a water heating heat recov- ery unit (see fi gure 5). To make the connections, close the service valves inside the unit by turning clockwise. Using a recovery canister connect to either of the schrader ports on the DSH service valves and recover the small amount of refrig- erant trapped inside of the U-tube.

ES SPLIT INSTALLATION MANUAL Electrical (cont.) Dual Fuel Systems ES units can be connected to fossil fuel furnaces that include an A-coil or slab coil. Dual fuel installations utilize the ES heat pump for heating until the point that auxiliary heat is called for on the thermostat. At that point, the furnace will be enabled and the heat pump will be disabled.

ES SPLIT INSTALLATION MANUAL Modes of Operation Heating Operation Notes: At fi rst power up, a four-minute time delay is employed before the compressor is energized. Heat, 1st Stage (Y1) The compressor and loop pumps are energized 10 seconds after the Y1 input. Heat, 2nd Stage (Y1, W) Single-Speed Units The auxiliary heat relay will disconnect the compressor, and the auxiliary heat will operate normally.
ES SPLIT INSTALLATION MANUAL Modes of Operation (cont.) Lockout Conditions During lockout mode, the appropriate thermostat lockout LEDs (if available) will illuminate. The compressor and loop pumps are de-energized and if the thermostat calls for third stage heating, emergency heat operation will occur. Lockout modes of any kind can be reset at the thermostat after a 5-second waiting period, which restores normal operation.
ES SPLIT INSTALLATION MANUAL Checking Superheat and Subcooling Determining Superheat Measure the temperature of the suction line at the point where the expansion valve bulb is clamped. Determine the suction pressure in the suction line by attaching refrigeration gauges to the schrader connection on the suction side of the compressor.
