Check rating plate to be sure unit matches job specifications.
Step 2—Install on a Solid, Level Mounting Pad
If conditions or local codes require the unit be attached to pad, tie
down bolts should be used and fastened through knockouts
provided in unit base pan. Refer to unit mounting pattern in Fig. 3
to determine base pan size and knockout hole location.

On rooftop applications, mount on level platform or frame. Place
unit above a load-bearing wall and isolate unit and tubing set from
structure. Arrange supporting members to adequately support unit
and minimize transmission of vibration to building. Consult local
codes governing rooftop applications.
NOTE: Unit must be level to within ± 2° (± 3/8 in./ft) per
compressor manufacturer specifications.
Step 3—Clearance Requirements
When installing, allow sufficient space for airflow clearance,
wiring, refrigerant piping, and service. Allow 30-in. clearance to
service end of unit and 48 in. above unit. For proper airflow, a 6-in.
clearance on 1 side of unit and 12 in. on all remaining sides must
be maintained. Maintain a distance of 24 in. between units.
Position so water, snow, or ice from roof or eaves cannot fall
directly on unit.
On rooftop applications, locate unit at least 6 in. above roof
surface.
Step 4—Operating Ambients
The minimum outdoor operating ambient in cooling mode is 55°F,
and the maximum outdoor operating ambient in cooling mode is
125°F. The maximum outdoor operating ambient in heating mode
is 66°F.
Step 5—Elevate Unit
Accumulation of water and ice in base pan may cause
equipment damage.
Elevate unit per local climate and code requirements to provide
clearance above estimated snowfall level and ensure adequate
drainage of unit. Fig. 4 shows unit with accessory support feet
installed. Use accessory snow stand in areas where prolonged
freezing temperatures are encountered. Refer to separate Installa-
tion Instructions packaged with accessories.

Step 6—Remove Indoor AccuRater® Piston and Replace
with TXV
NOTE: If indoor unit is not equipped with a TXV, use an
accessory indoor thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) when re-
quired. Refer to presale literature for proper Part No.
FURNACE COILS
Remove existing AccuRater from indoor coil and install required
accessory TXV kit. (See Fig. 5.)
