INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WALL MOUNTING INFORMATION
1. Two holes, for the supply and return air openings,
must be cut through the wall as shown in Figure 3.
2. On wood-frame walls, the wall construction must be
strong and rigid enough to carry the weight of the
unit without transmitting any unit vibration.
WARNING
Fire hazard can result if 1/4 inch clearance to
combustible materials for supply air duct is
not maintained. See Figure 3.
3. Concrete block walls must be thoroughly inspected to
insure that they are capable of carrying the weight of
the installing unit.
MOUNTING THE UNIT
1. These units are secured by wall mounting brackets
which secure the unit to the outside wall surface at
both sides. A bottom mounting bracket is provided
for ease of installation, but is not required.
2. The unit itself is suitable for "0" inch clearance, but
the supply air duct flange and the first 3 feet of supply
air duct require a minimum of 1/4 inch clearance to
combustible material. If a combustible wall, use a
minimum of 28½" x 8½" dimensions for sizing.
However, it is generally recommended that a 1-inch
clearance is used for ease of installation and
maintaining the required clearance to combustible
material. The supply air opening would then be
30" x 10". See Figures 3 and 7 for details.
WARNING
Failure to provide the 1/4 inch clearance
between the supply duct and a combustible
surface for the first 3 feet can result in fire.
3. Locate and mark lag bolt locations and bottom
mounting bracket location. See Figure 3.
4. Mount bottom mounting bracket.
5. Hook top rain flashing under back bend of top. Top
rain flashing is shipped secured to the right side of the
back.
6. Position unit in opening and secure with 5/16 lag
bolts; use 7/8 inch diameter flat washers on the lag
bolts.

7. Secure rain flashing to wall and caulk across entire
length of top. See Figure 3.
8. For additional mounting rigidity, the return air and
supply air frames or collars can be drilled and
screwed or welded to the structural wall itself
(depending upon wall construction). Be sure to
observe required clearance if combustible wall.
9. On side-by-side installations, maintain a minimum of
20 inches clearance on left side to allow access to
heat strips and control panel and to allow proper
airflow to the outdoor coil. Additional clearance may
be required to meet local or national codes.
WIRING – MAIN POWER
Refer to the unit rating plate for wire sizing information
and maximum fuse or "HACR" type circuit breaker size.
Each outdoor unit is marked with a "Minimum Circuit
Ampacity". This means that the field wiring used must
be sized to carry that amount of current. Depending on
the installed KW of electric heat, there may be two field
power circuits required. If this is the case, the unit serial
plate will so indicate. All models are suitable only for
connection with copper wire. Each unit and/or wiring
diagram will be marked "Use Copper Conductors Only".
These instructions must be adhered to. Refer to the
National Electrical Code (NEC) for complete current
carrying capacity data on the various insulation grades
of wiring material. All wiring must conform to NEC
and all local codes.
The electrical data lists fuse and wire sizes (75ºC
copper) for all models, including the most commonly
used heater sizes. Also shown are the number of field
power circuits required for the various models with
heaters.
The unit rating plate lists a "Maximum Time Delay
Relay Fuse" or "HACR" type circuit breaker that is to
be used with the equipment. The correct size must be
used for proper circuit protection and also to assure that
there will be no nuisance tripping due to the momentary
high starting current of the compressor motor.
The disconnect access door on this unit may be locked to
prevent unauthorized access to the disconnect. To
convert for the locking capability, bend the tab located
in the bottom left hand corner of the disconnect opening
under the disconnect access panel straight out. This tab
will now line up with the slot in the door. When shut, a
padlock may be placed through the hole in the tab
preventing entry.
