E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL General Installation Information Safety Considerations Before performing service or maintenance operations on a system, turn off main WARNING: power switches to the indoor unit. If applicable, turn off the accessory heater power switch. Electrical shock could cause personal injury. Installing and servicing heating and air conditioning equipment can be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical components.
E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Duct System An air outlet collar is provided on vertical top flow units and all horizontal units to facilitate a duct connection (vertical bottom flow units have no collar). A flexible connector is recommended for discharge and return air duct connections on metal duct systems.
E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Water Quality In ground water situations where scaling could be heavy or where biological growth such as iron bacteria will be pres- ent, a closed loop system is recommended. The heat exchanger coils in ground water systems may, over a period of time, lose heat exchange capabilities due to a buildup of mineral deposits inside.
E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Closed Loop Ground Source Systems Note: For closed loop systems with antifreeze protection, set SW2-2 to the “loop” position (see table on page 18). Once piping is completed between the unit, pumps and the ground loop (see figure below), final purging and charging of the loop is required.
E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Open Loop Ground Water Systems Typical open loop piping is shown below. Always maintain water pressure in the heat exchanger by placing water control valves at the outlet of the unit to prevent mineral precipitation. Use a closed, bladder-type expansion tank to minimize mineral formation due to air exposure.

E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Desuperheater Connections A minimum 50-gallon water heater is required. For higher demand applications, use an 80-gallon water heater or two 50-gallon water heaters connected in a series as shown below. Electric water heaters are recommended. Make sure all local electrical and plumbing codes are met for installing a desuperheater.
E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Plumbing Installation 1. Inspect the dip tube in the water heater cold inlet for a check valve. If a check valve is present it must be removed or damage to the desuperheater circulator will occur. 2. Remove drain valve and fitting. 3.
E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Electrical Connections General Be sure the available power is the same voltage and phase as that shown on the unit serial plate. Line and low voltage wiring must be done in accordance with local codes or the National Electric Code, whichever is applicable.

E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Electronic Thermostat Position the thermostat subbase against the wall so that it is Figure 16: Thermostat Wiring level and the thermostat wires protrude through the middle of the subbase. Mark the position of the subbase mounting holes and 24VAC (Hot) drill holes with a 3/16-inch bit.
E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Standard Microprocessor Control Features Startup The unit will not operate until all the inputs and safety controls are checked for normal conditions. At first power-up, a four-minute delay is employed before the compressor is energized. Component Sequencing Delays Components are sequenced and delayed for optimum space conditioning performance.

E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Standard Microprocessor Control Features Fan Speed Control A DIP switch on the E Series control allows field selection of 15% reduced fan speeds for cooling in the dehumidification mode or medium and high fan speeds for cooling in the normal mode. Note: Fan speed can change automatically only with an ECM Motor.

E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Description of Unit Operation Heating Operation Heat, 1st Stage (Y1) The fan motor is started on low speed immediately, the loop pump is energized 5 seconds after the “Y1” input is re- ceived, and the compressor is energized on low capacity 10 seconds after the “Y1” input. The fan is switched to medium speed 15 seconds after “Y1”...
E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Lockout Conditions (continued) High Pressure This lockout mode occurs when the normally closed safety switch is opened momentarily (set at 600 PSI). Low Pressure This lockout mode occurs when the normally closed low pressure switch is opened for 30 continuous seconds (set at 40 PSI).

E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Troubleshooting Standard Microprocessor Controls To check the unit control board for proper operation: 1) Disconnect thermostat wires at the control board. 2) Jumper the desired test input (Y1, Y2, W, O or G) to the R terminal with the SW2-8 in the “OFF” position to simulate a thermostat signal.
E SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL Preventive Maintenance Water Coil Maintenance 1. Keep all air out of the water. An open loop system should be checked to ensure that the well head is not allowing air to infiltrate the water line. Lines should always be airtight. 2.
