5 Pre-Installation Considerations

5.1 Preparation
Keep this document with the unit. Carefully read all
instructions for the installation prior to installing product.
Make sure each step or procedure is understood and
any special considerations are taken into account before
starting installation. Assemble all tools, hardware and
supplies needed to complete the installation. Some
items may need to be purchased locally. Make sure
everything needed to install the product is on hand
before starting.
5.2 System Matches
The entire system (combination of indoor and outdoor
sections) must be manufacturer approved and Air
Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute
(AHRI) listed.
NOTE: Installation of unmatched systems is not
permitted. Damage or repairs due to installation of
unmatched systems is not covered under the warranty.
5.3 Interconnecting Tubing
Give special consideration to minimize the length
of refrigerant tubing when installing air handlers.
Refer to Remote Cooling/Heat Pump Service Manual
RS6200006, and TP-107 Long Line Set Application
R-410A for tubing guidelines. If possible, allow adequate
length of tubing such that the coil may be removed
(for inspection or cleaning services) from the cabinet
without disconnecting the tubing.
5.4 Clearances
The unit clearance from a combustible surface may be
0". However, service clearance must take precedence.
A minimum of 24" in front of the unit for service clearance
is required. Additional clearance on one side or top will
be required for electrical wiring connections. Consult all
appropriate regulatory codes prior to determining final
clearances. When installing this unit in an area that
may become wet (such as crawl spaces), elevate the
unit with a sturdy, non-porous material. In installations
that may lead to physical damage (i.e. a garage) it is
advised to install a protective barrier to prevent such
damage. Always install units such that a positive slope
in condensate line (1/4" per foot) is allowed.
5.5 Horizontal Applications
If installed above a finished living space, a secondary
drain pan (as required by many building codes), must be
installed under the entire unit and its condensate drain
line must be routed to a location such that the user will
see the condensate discharge.
5.6 Access
This unit should be installed in a manner so that it is not
accessible to the public.

6 Installation Location

NOTE: These air handlers are designed for indoor installa-
tion only at a max altitude of 10,500 feet above sea level or
a min altitude of -184 feet below sea level.
If the unit is located in an unconditioned area with high
ambient temperature and/or high humidity, the air handler
may be subject to nuisance sweating of the casing. On these
installations, a wrap of 2" fiberglass insulation with a vapor
barrier is recommended. A secondary drain pan below the
unit is also recommended to protect the installation site.
