Step 3 — Mount the Unit
Mount the unit using the hanger bolts at the locations shown in
Fig. 2 and 3, top view. Use
weight, see Table 2.
MOUNTING THE UNIT — Lift the unit on to the hanging
rods for mounting:
1. Use rods and fasteners to suspend the unit at the factory-
provided mounting holes.
2. Adjust the height of the unit until the bottom is level with
the false ceiling. There must be adequate space to provide
enough pitch for the drain.
3. Secure the unit in position with locknuts and washers on
both sides of the mounting bracket. Ensure that the
threaded rod does not protrude more than two inches
below the mounting brackets as shown in Fig. 14.

bottom depending on the return air inlet arrangement.

arrangement requirement in the field, the unit can be modified
from rear return to bottom return. Follow the instructions
