PTAC Installation Recommendations

For proper PTAC unit performance and maximum operating life refer to the minimum installation clear-

ances below:

Figure 1

PTAC units should be installed

no closer than 12" apart when

two units are side by side. If

three or more PTAC units are to

operate next to one another allow

a minimum of 36" between units.

Also, a vertical clearance of 60"

should be maintained between

units installed. In the interior

of the room the unit should be

located a minimum of 1/4" from

the floor and a minimum of 36"

from the ceiling.

For PTACs on the ground floor or anytime obstructions are present, use the following guidelines:

Figure 2

•

For minor obstructions

such as lamp poles or small

shrubbery a clearance of

12" from the outdoor louver

should be maintained.

•

For major obstructions such

as a solid fence, wall or

other heat rejecting device

like a condensing unit, a

minimum distance of 36"

should be kept.

The above suggestions are for reference only and do not represent all possible installations. Please contact Friedrich for information regarding affects of other

installation arrangements. By following these simple recommendations you can be confident that your Friedrich PTAC will provide years of worry free operation.
