modular homes with existing high-static duct work. The units can also be easily converted to accommodate a plenum for
normal or low-static applications. The *PC & *PH series are self contained packaged units so the only connections needed for
installation are the supply and return ducts, the line and low voltage wiring and drain connection. Rated performance is
achieved after 72 hours of operation. Rated performance is delivered at the specified airflow. See outdoor unit specifica-
tion sheet for split system models or product specification sheet for packaged and light commercial models. Specification
sheets can be found at www.goodmanmfg.com for Goodman
products. Within either website, please select the residential or commercial products menu and then select the submenu for
the type of product to be installed, such as air conditioners or heat pumps, to access a list of product pages that each contain
links to that model's specification sheet.
The information on the rating plate is in compliance with the FTC & DOE rating for single phase units. The three phase units
in this series are not covered under the DOE certified program. The efficiency ratings of these units are a product of
thermal efficiency determined under continuous operating conditions independent of any installed system.

EPA Regulations

IMPORTANT: THE UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (EPA) HAS ISSUED VARIOUS REGULATIONS REGARDING
THE INTRODUCTION AND DISPOSAL OF REFRIGERANTS IN THIS UNIT. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE REGULATIONS MAY HARM
THE ENVIRONMENT AND CAN LEAD TO THE IMPOSITION OF SUBSTANTIAL FINES. BECAUSE REGULATIONS MAY VARY DUE TO
PASSAGE OF NEW LAWS, WE SUGGEST A CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN PERFORM ANY WORK DONE ON THIS UNIT. SHOULD YOU
HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CONTACT THE LOCAL OFFICE OF THE EPA.

National Codes

This product is designed and manufactured to permit installation in accordance with National Codes. It is the installer's
responsibility to install the product in accordance with National Codes and/or prevailing local codes and regulations.

MAJOR COMPONENTS

General

The unit includes a hermetically sealed refrigerating system (consisting of a compressor, condenser coil, evaporator coil
with flowrator), an indoor blower, a condenser fan and all necessary internal electrical wiring. The heat pump also includes
a reversing valve, solenoid, defrost thermostat and control and loss of charge protection. The system is factory-evacuated,
charged and performance tested. Refrigerant amount and type are indicated on rating plate.

INSTALLATION

Pre-Installation Checkpoints

Before attempting any installation, the following points should be considered:
• Structural strength of supporting members
• Clearances and provision for servicing
• Power supply and wiring
• Air duct connections
• Drain facilities and connections
• Location may be on any four sides of a home,

Clearance

The unit is designed to be located outside the building with unobstructed condenser air inlet and discharge. Additionally,
the unit must be situated to permit access for service and installation.
Condenser air enters from three sides. Air discharges upward from the top of
the unit. Refrigerant gauge connections are made on the right side of the unit
as you face the compressor compartment. Electrical connections can be made
either on the right or left sides of the unit. The best and most common
application is for the unit to be located 10" from wall (4" minimum) with the
connection side facing the wall. This "close to the wall" application minimizes
exposed wiring.
Close to the wall application assures free, unobstructed air to the other two
sides. In more confined application spaces, such as corners provide a minimum
10" clearance on all air inlet sides. Allow 18" minimum for service access to
the compressor compartment and controls. The top of the unit should be
completely unobstructed. If units are to be located under an overhang, there
should be a minimum of 36" clearance and provisions made to deflect the
warm discharge air out from the overhang.

Location

Consider the affect of outdoor fan noise on conditioned space and any adjacent
occupied space. It is recommended that the unit be placed so that condenser
air discharge does not blow toward windows less than 25 feet away.
