General Planning

Before starting the installation, consider the following:
• Ensure the entire confi guration and installation, including the attached indoor unit,
is carefully planned prior to installation. In some cases, the location of the indoor
unit itself may be affected by the chosen air cleaner confi guration.
• If the overhead plenum height is suffi cient, employ standard- or mixed-profi le con-
fi gurations as they are the most economical choices. Reserve low-profi le confi gu-
rations for restricted height plenum applications.
• Identify and plan the layout of all fi eld-fabricated ducting prior to mounting.
