Typical Unit Installation
Unit Location
Locate the unit in an indoor area that allows for easy removal of
the filter and access panels. Location should have enough space
for service personnel to perform maintenance or repair. Provide
sufficient room to make water and electrical connection(s). Any
access panel screws that would be difficult to remove after the unit
is installed should be removed prior to setting the unit. Care should
be taken when units are located in unconditioned spaces to
prevent damage from frozen water lines and excessive heat
that could damage electrical components.
Installing Console Units
Console units are available in left or right air return configurations.
Units should be mounted level on the floor. It is not necessary to
anchor the unit to the floor.
WARNING: Before performing service or maintenance
operations on a system, turn off main power switches to the
indoor unit. If applicable, turn off the accessory heater power
switch. Electrical shock could cause personal injury.
Installing and servicing heating and air conditioning equipment can
be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical components.
Only trained and qualified service personnel should install, repair
or service heating and air conditioning equipment. Untrained
personnel can perform the basic maintenance functions of cleaning
coils and cleaning and replacing filters.
All other operations should be performed by trained service
personnel. When working on heating and air conditioning
equipment, observe precautions in the literature, tags and labels
attached to the unit and other safety precautions that may apply.
Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work gloves.
Use a quenching cloth for brazing operations and have a fire
extinguisher available.
