General
DO NOT locate the unit:
—Directly under a vent termination for a gas appliance.
—Within 3 feet of a clothes drier vent.
—Where water may rise into the unit.
– Where the noise would prove to be a nuisance to the
customer (i.e. windows, patios, decks, etc.)
DO locate the unit:
—In accordance with the minimum clearances described
in Figure 1.
—To minimize the length of refrigerant piping required.
—To provide adequate service clearances.
—On a level concrete pad (or other sturdy, weather
resistant platform).
—Isolated from the building structure to avoid transmis-
sion of vibrations.
NOTE: Short runs of refrigerant piping are better than long
runs. Locate the unit to provide safe access for future
maintenance and service. If possible, discuss unit location
with the owner before proceeding.
ROOFTOP INSTALLATIONS
Before installing this unit on a roof, ensure that the roof will
support the weight of the unit, its platform, and the service
personnel. For the unit weight, see the outdoor unit
specification sheet (all weights are approximate). If there is
doubt about the adequacy of the roof, contact a qualified
architect or structural engineer before installing the unit.
Ensure the unit is placed on a level, weather-resistant
platform.
APPLICATION NOTE
For proper performance, the indoor equipment and duct-
work must be adequate for moving about 400 CFM of
indoor air for every ton of cooling capacity to be installed. If
they are not, modify the ductwork or indoor equipment
accordingly.
This manual covers only the installation of the remote
cooling unit. For information on accessories, see the unit
“Specification Sheet”.
SHIPPING AND HANDLING
Units are securely packed in shipping containers approved
by the International Safe Transit Association. Check the
carton upon arrival for external damage. If damage is
found, file a request in writing for inspection by the carrier
agent immediately. The carrier is responsible for making
prompt inspection of damage and for a thorough investiga-
tion of each claim. The distributor or manufacturer will not
accept claims from dealers for transportation damage. If
no damage is found, carefully remove all shipping material
and properly dispose of it.
Keep the unit as upright as possible. Laying the unit on its
side or top could cause equipment damage.
LOCATION AND CLEARANCES
This unit is for outdoor installation only. Refer to Figure 1
for clearances from the sides of the unit to full walls and
other objects.
This unit is for outdoor installation only. The unit cannot be
completely enclosed. At least one side must be unre-
stricted. Refer to Figure 1 for clearances from the sides and
top of the unit to walls and other objects.
NOTE: These minimum clearances do not guarantee
adequate service access. Sufficient clearances for servic-
ing the unit(s) must be provided.
If installing two or more units at the same location, allow at
least 24 inches between the units when using the 6”-12”-
12” guidelines in Figure 1. The space between two units
may be reduced to 12” if the clearances in Figure 1 are
increased to 12”-24”-24”.
