STARTUP, ADJUSTMENTS, AND CHECKS
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE!
DISCONNECT ALL POWER BEFORE SERVICING OR INSTALLING
THIS UNIT.
MULTIPLE POWER SOURCES MAY BE PRESENT. FAILURE
TO DO SO MAY CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR
DEATH.
START-UP P ROCEDURE AND C HECKLIST
With power turned off at all disconnects:
1. Turn thermostat system switch to “COOL” and fan switch
to “AUTO”. Next, turn the temperature setting as high as it
will go.
2. Inspect all registers and set them to the normal open
position.
3. Turn on the electrical supply at the disconnect.
4. Turn the fan switch to the “ON” position. The blower should
operate after a 7-second delay.
5. Turn the fan switch to “AUTO” position. The blower should
stop after a 65-second delay.
6. Slowly lower the cooling temperature until the unit starts.
The compressor, blower and fan should now be operating.
Allow the unit to run 10 minutes, make sure cool air is being
supplied by the unit.
7. Turn the temperature setting to the highest position,
stopping the unit. The indoor blower will continue to run for
65-seconds.
8. Turn the thermostat system switch to “OFF” and disconnect
all power when servicing the unit.
HEAT PUMP START-UP PROCEDURE
1. Check the cooling mode for the heat pump in the same
manner as above. The reversing valve is energized when
the thermostat is placed in the cooling position. A clicking
sound should be noticeable from the reversing valve. By
lowering the temperature setting to call for cooling, the
contractor is energized. The compressor, blower and fan
should then be running. After the cooling mode is checked
out, turn the thermostat system switch to “OFF”.
2. Turn the thermostat system switch to “HEAT” and fan switch
to “AUTO”.
3. Slowly raise the heating temperature setting. When the
heating first stage makes contact, stop raising the
temperature setting.. The compressor, blower and fan
should now be running with the reversing valve in the de-
energized (heating) position. After giving the unit time to
settle out, make sure the unit is supplying heated air.
4. If the outdoor ambient is above 80°F, the unit may trip on
its high pressure cut out when on heating. The compressor
should stop. The heating cycle must be thoroughly
checked, so postpone the test to another day when
conditions are more suitable. DO NOT FAIL TO TEST.
5. If the outdoor ambient is low and the unit operates properly
on the heating cycle, you may check the pressure cutout
operation by blocking off the indoor return air until the unit
trips.
6. If unit operates properly in the heating cycle, raise the
temperature setting until the heating second stage makes
contact. Supplemental resistance heat, if installed should
now come on. Make sure it operates properly.
NOTE: If outdoor thermostats are installed, the outdoor
ambient must be below the set point of these thermostats
for the heaters to operate. It may be necessary to jumper
these thermostats to check heater operation if outdoor
ambient is mild.
7. For thermostats with emergency heat switch, return to step
6. The emergency heat switch is located at the bottom of
the thermostat. Move the switch to emergency heat. The
heat pump will stop, the blower will continue to run, all
heaters will come on and the thermostat emergency heat
light will come on. 3-phase models are single stage heat
only.
8. If checking the unit in the wintertime, when the outdoor coil
is cold enough to actuate the defrost control, observe at
least one defrost cycle to make sure the unit defrosts
completely.
FINAL SYSTEM CHECKS
1. Check to see if all supply and return air grilles are adjusted
and the air distribution system is balanced for the best
compromise between heating and cooling.
2. Check for air leaks in the ductwork.
3. See Sections on Air Flow Measurement and Adjustment
and Checking Charge.
4. Make sure the unit is free of “rattles”, and the tubing in the
unit is free from excessive vibration. Also make sure tubes
or lines are not rubbing against each other or sheet metal
surfaces or edges. If so, correct the trouble.
5. Set the thermostat at the appropriate setting for cooling
and heating or automatic changeover for normal use.
6. Be sure the Owner is instructed on the unit operation,
filter, servicing, correct thermostat operation, etc.
The foregoing “Start-up Procedure and Check List” is recom-
mended to serve as an indication that the unit will operate nor-
mally.
COMPONENTS
Crankcase Heater
This item is “ON” whenever power is supplied to the unit and the
crankcase heater thermostat is closed. Crankcase heater
thermostat closes at 67° and opens at 85°. It warms the compressor
