Additional Items Needed:
Additional hardware and miscellaneous supplies (not furnished by ICE) are needed for installation.
For example, the list below contains approximate quantities of items typically needed for mounting a
unit on a concrete, fiberglass or steel frame structure. Concrete and fiberglass structures have different
requirements.
• Silicone Sealer to seal around cracks and openings. Seal all top mounting holes not used and pro-
vide a seal at the top of the unit where it meets the building to eliminate water intrusion. Provide a
complete perimeter seal between the unit and cabinet. The insulation that is factory installed around
the supply and return air openings is an air seal only. It is not a water or weather seal.
• Use appropriate electrical supplies such as conduit, electrical boxes, fittings, wire connectors, etc.
• High voltage wire sized to handle the MCA (minimum circuit ampacity) listed on the data plate
and in the Electrical Ratings table in section 1.4.
• Over-Current Protection Device sized in accordance with the MFS (maximum fuse size) listed
on the unit data plate and in the Electrical Ratings table in section 1.4.
Improper adjustment, alteration, service, maintenance or installation could cause
serious injury, death and/or property damage.
Installation or repairs made by unqualified persons could result in hazards to you and
others. Installation MUST conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes,
with codes of all governmental authorities have jurisdiction.
The information contained in this manual is intended for use by a qualified service
agency that is experienced in such work, is familiar with all precautions and safety
procedures required in such work, and is equipped with the proper tools and test
instruments.

Porting and Duct Work

General Information
Note: The following instructions are for general guidance only. Due to the wide variety of installa-
tion possibilities, specific instructions will not be given. When in doubt, follow standard and accepted
installation practices, or contact ICE for additional assistance.
Minimum Airflow Requirements
The duct system must be engineered to assure sufficient air flow through the SlimPac™ ECUA, even
under adverse conditions such as dirty filters, etc. See table below and Table 4, CFM at External Static
Pressure (Wet Coil) in section 1.4.

Air Flow Requirements and Ducting

Ducting
Extension length should be cut flush with the inside wall for applications without duct work.
Applications using duct work should be designed and installed in accordance with all applicable safety
codes and standards. ICE strongly recommends referring to the current editions of the National Fire
ICE SlimPac ECUA12-18 I&O Manual 03/2019 Rev.2
