To install parallel to joist, attach the angle supports to the middle holes in the housing with the #8 x 1/2" screws provided . If distance between joists is less than 14 . 5 ", top mounting holes must be used . Using the hole spacing guide in FIGURE 4, attach the joist brackets in a parallel manner so the bracket edges are approximately 15 inches apart, as shown in FIGURE 2, with the #8 x 1"...
. The Model 300 has the capacity to deliver 250 CFM at 0 . 1 inches of water gauge external resistance equivalent to 80 effective feet of duct length . The evaporative capacity at various effective duct lengths are plotted in the graph below .
• Using a section of braided tubing near the unit can reduce water hammer . • A condensate pump can be used if an adequate drain angle cannot be achieved (Aprilaire Part #4856) . HOT WATER DELIVERY TIME THROUGH STANDARD PIPE SIZE 3/4"...
