    If component replacement is required, the top panel also can be removed. If necessary, the unit can be disassembled. Vision air handlers ship as separate sections, completely Maintain at least 54" of clearance in front of electrical power assembled, or in modules of assembled sections. The unit devices (starters, VFDs, disconnect switches and combination must be rigged as it ships from the factory.
