Installation; Mounting The Unit - Bard Q-TEC Series Literature Assembly

MOUNTING THE UNIT

When installing a QW unit near an interior wall on the
left side, a minimum of 8 inches is required; 12 inches
is preferred.
When installing a QW unit near an interior wall on
the right side, a minimum of 12 inches is required as
additional space is required to connect the drain.
This clearance is required to allow for the attachment
of the unit to the wall mounting brackets and the side
trim pieces to the wall.
This unit is to be secured to the wall when there is not
a vent sleeve used with the wall mounting brackets
provided. (NOTE: Wall mounting brackets are only
shipped on units with no vent inside.) The unit itself,
the supply duct, and the free blow plenum are suitable
for "0" clearance to combustible material.
NOTE: When a wall sleeve is to be used attach the
unit to the sleeve with bracket supplied with
the wall sleeve.
Following are the steps for mounting the QW units. For
reference see Figure 11 on page 18.
1. Attach wall mounting bracket to the structure wall
with field-supplied lag bolts. The fluid piping
connections are to be within the confines of this
bracket. See Figure 1 on page 8 for cabinet
openings and location of fluid coil connection
points.
2. Position the unit in front of the wall mounting
bracket.
3. Remove the locking screws from the wheels (see
Figure 10).
4. Roll the unit up to the wall mounting bracket.
The unit must be level from side to side. If any
adjustments are necessary, shim up under the
rollers with sheets of steel or any substance that is
not affected by moisture.
5. Secure the unit to the wall bracket with provided
#10 hex head sheet metal screws. There are
prepunched holes in the cabinet sides and the
bracket has slotted holes to allow for some
misalignment.
6. Position the bottom trim piece to the unit and
attach with provided screws (dark colored).
7. Position side trim pieces to the wall and attach
with field-supplied screws. There are two long and
two short pieces supplied. The long pieces are to
enclose the gap behind the unit. The short pieces
are to fill the gap behind the cabinet extension or
the free blow plenum box. They may be cut to suit
the ceiling height or overlap the unit side trim.
There is sufficient length to trim up to a 10'2"
ceiling.
