3. Operate each heat pump in the heating cycle imme-
diately after checking cooling cycle operation. A time
delay will prevent the compressor from restarting for
approximately 5 minutes.
Note: Rooftop heat pump units are designed to start heating
at a minimum return air temperature of 40° F with normal
water flow rate and ambient temperature.
a.
If the unit has a MCO thermostat, set the
temperature indicator to the highest setting
and set the selector switch to HEAT. The
fan and the compressor should start. If the
unit has an optional ACO thermostat, set the
temperature indicator to the highest setting and
set the selector switch to AUTO. The fan and the
compressor should start.
b. Once the unit has begun to run, check for warm
air delivery at the unit grille. List the serial number
of any machines that do not function.
4. Establish a permanent operating record by logging
the unit operating conditions at initial start-up for
each unit.

5. If a unit fails to operate, conduct the following checks:
a.
Check the voltage and current. They should
comply with the electrical specifications described
on the unit nameplate.
b. Look for wiring errors. Check for loose terminal
screws where wire connections have been made
on both the line and low-voltage terminal boards.
c.
Check for dirty filters. A clogged filter will cause
safety cutouts to stop unit operation.
d. Check the supply and return piping. They must
be properly connected to the inlet and outlet
connections on the unit.
e.
Check the fan. If the fan fails to operate, verify
that the fan wheel turns freely and that it is
secured to the shaft. Also verify that the fan
operates in both heating and cooling modes.
f.
If the checks described above fail to reveal the
problem and the unit still will not operate, contact
a trained service technician to ensure proper
diagnosis and repair of the equipment.
