5Pre-Installation Considerations
5.1Preparation
Keep this document with the unit. Carefully read all instructions for the installation prior to installing product. Make
sure each step or procedure is understood and any special
considerations are taken into account before starting installation. Assemble all tools, hardware and supplies needed to
complete the installation. Some items may need to be purchased locally. Make sure everything needed to install the
product is on hand before starting.
5.2 System Matches
The entire system (combination of indoor and outdoor sections) must be manufacturer approved and Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) listed. NOTE:
Installation of unmatched systems is not permitted. Damage
or repairs due to installation of unmatched systems is not
covered under the warranty.
5.3Interconnecting Tubing
Give special consideration to minimize the length of refrigerant tubing when installing air handlers. Refer to Remote Cooling/Heat Pump Service Manual RS6200006, and TP-107 Long
Line Set Application R-410A for tubing guidelines. If possible,
allow adequate length of tubing such that the coil may be
removed (for inspection or cleaning services) from the cabinet without disconnecting the tubing.
5.4Clearances
The unit clearance from a combustible surface may be 0".
However, service clearance must take precedence. A minimum of 24" in front of the unit for service clearance is required. Additional clearance on one side or top will be required for electrical wiring connections. Consult all appropriate regulatory codes prior to determining final clearances.
When installing this unit in an area that may become wet
(such as crawl spaces), elevate the unit with a sturdy, nonporous material. In installations that may lead to physical
damage (i.e. a garage) it is advised to install a protective
barrier to prevent such damage. Always install units such
that a positive slope in condensate line (1/4" per foot) is
allowed.
5.5 Horizontal Applications
If installed above a finished living space, a secondary drain
pan (as required by many building codes), must be installed
under the entire unit and its condensate drain line must be
routed to a location such that the user will see the condensate discharge.
6Installation Location
NOTE: These air handlers are designed for indoor installation
only.
The AVPTC**14** product line may be installed in one of the
upflow, downflow, horizontal left or horizontal right orientations
as shown in Figures 2, 3, 4 and 5. The unit may be installed in
upflow or horizontal left orientation as shipped (refer to specific
sections for more information).

Page 4
Minor field modifications are necessary to convert to downflow
or horizontal right as indicated in below sections.
6.1 Upflow Installation
No field modifications are mandatory; however, to obtain
maximum efficiency, the horizontal drip shield, side drain pan
and drain pan extension can be removed.
Side Drain Pan and Extension Removal: Refer to Figure 1, remove the two (2) screws that secure the drip shield support
brackets to the condensate collectors (front and back). Unsnap the side drain pan from the main drain pan using a screw
driver or any small lever. The side drain pan, drip shield brackets and the drain pan extension may now be removed. From
Figure 1, drain port labeled (A) is the primary drain for this
application and condensate drain line must be attached to
this drain port. Drain port (a) is for the secondary drain line (if
used).
IMPORTANT NOTE: In the downflow application, to prevent
coil pan “sweating”, a downflow kit (DFK) is available through
your local Goodman distributor. The DFK is not supplied with
the air handler and is required by Goodman on all downflow
installations. See Table 2 for the correct DFK and follow the
instructions provided for installation.

NOTE: If removing only the coil access panel from the unit, the
filter access panel must be removed first. Failure to do so may
result in panel damage.
Do not install the air handler in a location that violates the
instructions provided with the condenser. If the unit is located in
an unconditioned area with high ambient temperature and/or high
humidity, the air handler may be subject to nuisance sweating of
the casing. On these installations, a wrap of 2" fiberglass insulation
with a vapor barrier is recommended.
NOTE: To prevent possible damage to the tubing joints, do
not handle coil assembly with manifold or flowrator tubes.
Always use clean gloves when handling coil assemblies.
NOTE: The use of a heat shield is strongly recommended when
brazing to avoid burning the serial plate or the finish of the
unit. Heat trap or wet rags must be used to protect heat sensitive components such as service valves and TXV valves sensing bulb.
This product is factory-shipped with R410A and dry
nitrogen mixture gas under pressure. Use appropriate
service tools and follow these instructions to prevent
injury.
A quenching cloth is strongly recommended to prevent
scorching or marring of the equipment finish when
brazing close to the painted surfaces. Use brazing
alloy of 5% minimum silver content.
CAUTION
Applying too much heat to any tube can melt the tube. Torch
heat required to braze tubes of various sizes must be
proportional to the size of the tube. Service personnel must
use the appropriate heat level for the size of the tube being
brazed.

8Condensate Drain Lines
The coil drain pan has a primary and a secondary drain with 3/4"
NPT female connections. The connectors required are 3/4" NPT
male, either PVC or metal pipe, and should be hand tightened to a
torque of no more than 37 in-lbs. to prevent damage to the drain
pan connection. An insertion depth of approximately 3/8” to 1/2”
(3-5 turns) should be expected at this torque.
1. Ensure drain pan hole is not obstructed.
2. To prevent potential sweating and dripping on to finished
space, it may be necessary to insulate the condensate drain
line located inside the building. Use Armaflex® or similar
material.
A secondary condensate drain connection has been provided for
areas where the building codes require it. Pitch all drain lines a
minimum of 1/4" per foot to provide free drainage. Provide required support to the drain line to prevent bowing. If the secondary drain line is required, run the line separately from the primary drain and end it where condensate discharge can be easily
seen.
NOTE: Water coming from secondary line means the coil primary
drain is plugged and needs immediate attention.
If secondary drain is not installed, the secondary
access must be plugged.
Insulate drain lines located inside the building or above a finished living space to prevent sweating. Install a condensate trap
to ensure proper drainage.
NOTE: When units are installed above ceilings, or in other
locations where damage from condensate overflow may
occur, it is MANDATORY to install a field fabricated auxiliary
drain pan under the coil cabinet enclosure.
The installation must include a “P” style trap that is located as
close as is practical to the evaporator coil. See Figure 12 for
details of a typical condensate line “P” trap.
NOTE: Units operating in high static pressure applications may
require a deeper field constructed “P” style trap than is shown in
Figure 12 to allow proper drainage and prevent condensate overflow.

NOTE: Trapped lines are required by many local codes. In the
absence of any prevailing local codes, please refer to the requirements listed in the Uniform Mechanical Building Code.
A drain trap in a draw-through application prevents air from
being drawn back through the drain line during fan operation
thus preventing condensate from draining, and if connected to a
sewer line to prevent sewer gases from being drawn into the airstream during blower operation.
Use of a condensate removal pump is permitted when necessary.
This condensate pump should have provisions for shutting off the
control voltage should a blocked drain occur. A trap must be
installed between the unit and the condensate pump.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The evaporator coil is fabricated with oils
that may dissolve styrofoam and certain types of plastics.
Therefore, a removal pump or float switch must not contain any of
these materials.
Tip: Priming the “P” trap may avoid improper draining at the initial installation and at the beginning of the cooling season.

9Ductwork
This air handler is designed for a complete supply and return
ductwork system.
To ensure correct system performance, the ductwork is to be sized
to accommodate 350-450 CFM per ton of cooling with the static
pressure not to exceed 0.5" in w.c. Refer to ACCA Manual D,
Manual S and Manual RS for information on duct sizing and application. Flame retardant ductwork is to be used and sealed to the
unit in a manner that will prevent leakage.
NOTE: A downflow application with electric heat must have an Lshaped sheet metal supply duct without any outlets or registers
located directly below the heater.
9.1Return Ductwork
DO NOT LOCATE THE RETURN DUCTWORK IN AN AREA THAT
CAN INTRODUCE TOXIC, OR OBJECTIONABLE FUMES/
ODORS INTO THE DUCTWORK. The return ductwork is to
be connected to the air handler bottom (upflow configuration).
10 Return Air Filters
Each installation must include a return air filter. This filtering may
be performed at the air handler using the factory filter rails or
externally such as a return air filter grille. When using the factory
filter rails, a nominal 16x20x1”, 20x20x1” or 24x20x1” (actual dimension must be less than 23-½”x20”) filter can be installed on a
B, C and D cabinet respectively (the cabinet size is the seventh
letter of the model number).
11 Electric Heat
Do not operate this product without all the ductwork
attached.
Refer to the installation manual provided with the electric heat kit
for the correct installation procedure. All electric heat must be
field installed. If installing this option, the ONLY heat kits that are
permitted to be used are the HKS series. Refer to the air handler
unit’s Serial and Rating plate or the HKS specification sheets to
determine the heat kits compatible with a given air handler. No
other accessory heat kit besides the HKS series may be installed in
these air handlers.
The heating mode temperature rise is dependent upon the system airflow, the supply voltage, and the heat kit size (kW) selected.
Use data provided in Tables 3, 4 and 5 to determine the temperature rise (°F).
NOTE: For installations not indicated above the following formula
is to be used:
TR = (kW x 3412) x (Voltage Correction) / (1.08 x CFM)
Where:TR= Temperature Rise
kW= Heater Kit Actual kW
3412 = Btu per kW
VC*= .96 (230 Supply Volts)
= .92 (220 Supply Volts)
= .87 (208 Supply Volts)
1.08= Constant
CFM= Measured Airflow
VC* (Voltage Correction)
NOTE: The Temperature Rise Tables can also be used to estimate
the air handler airflow delivery. When using these tables for this
purpose set the room thermostat to maximum heat and allow the
system to reach steady state conditions. Insert two thermometers,
one in the return air and one in the supply air. The temperature
rise is the supply air temperature minus the return air temperature.
Using the temperature rise calculated, CFM can be estimated from
the TR formula above. See Spec Sheets and/or Service Manual for
more information.

NOTE: Wire routing must not interfere with the circulator blower
operation or routine maintenance.
The air handler’s integrated control module provides terminals
for “Y1” and “Y2” and “W1” and “W2” thermostat connections.
This allows the air handler to support the systems shown in the
following table. Refer to the following figures for typical connections to the integrated control module. Thermostat wiring entrance
holes are located in the top of the blower. Wire routing must not
interfere with circulator blower operation or routine maintenance.
NOTE: A removable plug connector is provided with the control
to make thermostat wire connections. This plug may be removed,
wire connections made to the plug, and replaced. It is STRONGLY
recommended that you do not connect multiple wires into a single
terminal. Wire nuts are recommended to ensure one wire is used
for each terminal. Failure to do so may result in intermittent
operation.

14.2 24 Volt Dehumidistat Wiring - Non-Communicating
Thermostat Connections
The optional usage of a dehumidistat allows the air handler’s circulator blower to operate at a slightly lower speed during a combined thermostat call for cooling and dehumidistat call for dehumidification. This lower blower speed enhances dehumidification
of the conditioned air as it passes through the AC coil. For proper
function, a dehumidistat applied to this air handler must operate
on 24 VAC and utilize a switch which opens on humidity rise.
To install/connect a dehumidistat:
15 Auxiliary Alarm Switch
The control is equipped with two Auxiliary Alarm terminals labeled CAS which can be utilized with communicating mode setups
(typically used for condensate switch wiring but could be used
with compatible C02 sensors or fire alarms).
Legacy mode use
In a legacy system (Non-communicating), this feature is not op-
erational. Any auxiliary alarm switch must be used to interrupt
the Y1 signal either to the indoor or outdoor unit.
Communication mode use
This feature can be activated or deactivated through the thermostat user menus. An auxiliary alarm switch must be normally
closed and open when the base pan’s water level in the evaporator coil reaches a particular level. The control will respond by
turning off the outdoor compressor and display the proper fault
codes. If the switch is detected closed for 30 seconds, normal
operation resumes and the error message will be removed.
SWITCH
CAS
1. Turn OFF power to air handler.
2. Secure the dehumidistat neutral wire (typically the white
lead) to the screw terminal marked “DEHUM” on the air
handler’s integrated control module.
3. Secure the dehumidistat hot wire (typically the black lead)
to the screw terminal marked “R” on the air handler’s integrated control module.
4. Secure the dehumidistat ground wire (typically the green
lead) to the ground screw on the air handler. NOTE: Ground
wire may not be present on all dehumidistats.
5. To enable the dehumidification function, move the dehumidification dip switch (S7) from OFF to ON. See following

17 Circulator Blower
This air handler is equipped with a multi-speed circulator blower.
This blower provides ease in adjusting blower speeds. The Specification Sheet applicable to your model provides an airflow table,
showing the relationship between airflow (CFM) and external static
pressure (E.S.P.), for the proper selection of heating and cooling
speeds. The heating blower speed shipped is set at 21kW or 25kW,
and the cooling blower speed is set at “D”. These blower speeds
should be adjusted by the installer to match the installation requirements so as to provide the correct electric heating CFM and
correct cooling CFM.
Use the CFM LED (green) to obtain an approximate airflow quantity. The green CFM LED blinks once for each 100 CFM of airflow.
1. Determine the tonnage of the cooling system installed with
the air handler. If the cooling capacity is in BTU/hr divide it
by 12,000 to convert capacity to TONs.
Example: Cooling Capacity of 30,000 BTU/hr.
30,000/12,000 = 2.5 Tons
2. Determine the proper airflow for the cooling system. Most
cooling systems are designed to work with airflows between
350 and 450 CFM per ton. Most manufacturers recommend
an airflow of about 400 CFM per ton.
Example: 2.5 tons X 400 CFM per ton = 1000 CFM
Figure 21
The cooling system manufacturer’s instructions must be checked
for required airflow. Any electronic air cleaners or other devices
may require a specific airflow; consult installation instructions
of those devices for requirements.
3. Knowing the air handler model, locate the high stage cooling airflow charts in the Specification Sheet applicable to your
model. Look up the cooling airflow determined in step 2
and find the required cooling speed and adjustment setting.
Example: An AVPTC31C14 air handler installed with a 2.5
ton air conditioning system. The airflow needed is 1000 CFM.
Looking at the cooling speed chart for AVPTC31C14, find the
airflow closest to 1000 CFM. A cooling airflow of 1000 CFM
can be attained by setting the cooling speed to “C” and the
adjustment to “0” (no adjustment).
4. Locate the blower speed selection DIP switches on the integrated control module. Select the desired “cooling” speed
tap by positioning switches 1 and 2 appropriately. If airflow
adjustment is required, set dip switch S8 (trim enable) to ON
(trim enable default is off). Then select the desired “adjust”
tap by positioning switches S3 and S4 appropriately. Refer
to the following Airflow Adjust Taps figure for switch positions and their corresponding taps. Verify CFM by counting
the number of times the green CFM LED blinks, see page 13
for LED locations.

5. Continuous fan speeds that provide 25, 50, 75, and 100% of
the air handler’s maximum airflow capability are selectable
via dip switches S12 and S13.
If the air handler’s maximum airflow capability is 2000 CFM
and 25% continuous fan speed is selected, the continuous
fan speed will be 0.25 x 2000 CFM = 500 CFM.
6. The multi-circulator blower also offers several custom ON/
OFF ramping profiles. These profiles may be used to enhance
cooling performance and increase comfort level. The ramping profiles are selected using DIP switches 5 and 6. Refer to
the following Dip Switches - Cooling Airflow Ramping Pro-files figure for switch positions and their corresponding taps.

7. If an electric heater kit has been installed, determine the
heater kilowatt (kW) rating. Using the Electric Heat Airflow
table on page 14, set dip switches 9, 10, and 11 for the installed heater. The adjust setting (already established by the
cooling speed selection) also applies to the electric heater
kit airflow. Thus, the electric heater airflow is adjusted by
the same amount. This does not apply to systems setup with
a communicating thermostat. See Set-Up section in the AIR
HANDLER ADVANCED FEATURES MENU on page 21. Verify selected
CFM by counting the green CFM LED blinks.
If an electric heater kit has not been installed, set dip switches
9, 10, and 11 to any valid heater kit setting (see airflow table
for valid settings). This will prevent an Ec Error code from
being displayed.
NOTE: For installations not indicated in the preceding Temperature
Rise Tables, the following formula is to be used:
TR = (kW x 3412) x (Voltage Correction) / (1.08 x CFM)
Where: TR= Temperature Rise
kW= Heater Kit Actual kW
3412= Btu per kW
Voltage Correction=.96 (230 Supply Volts)
=.92 (220 Supply Volts)
=.87 (208 Supply Volts)
1.08= Constant
CFM= Measured Airflow
NOTE: The Temperature Rise Tables can also be used to determine
the air handler airflow delivery. When using these tables for this
purpose set the room thermostat to maximum heat and allow the
system to reach steady state conditions. Insert two thermometers,
one in the return air and one in the supply air. The temperature
rise is the supply air temperature minus the room air temperature.
Use HKR specification sheets to determine the HKR available for a
given air handler.
19.1 Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
NOTE: Discharge body’s static electricity before touching unit.
An electrostatic discharge can adversely affect electrical
components.
Use the following precautions during air handler installation and
servicing to protect the integrated control module from damage. By putting the air handler, the control, and the person at
the same electrostatic potential, these steps will help avoid exposing the integrated control module to electrostatic discharge.
This procedure is applicable to both installed and uninstalled (ungrounded) blowers.
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE!
TO
AVOID PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH DUE TO
ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER
BEFORE PERFORMING ANY SERVICE OR MAINTENANCE
1. Disconnect all power to the blower. Do not touch the integrated control module or any wire connected to the control prior to discharging your body’s electrostatic charge
to ground.
2. Firmly touch a clean, unpainted, metal surface of the air
handler blower near the control. Any tools held in a
person’s hand during grounding will be discharged.
3. Service integrated control module or connecting wiring following the discharge process in step 2. Use caution not to
recharge your body with static electricity; (i.e., do not move
or shuffle your feet, do not touch ungrounded objects, etc.).
If you come in contact with an ungrounded object, repeat
step 2 before touching control or wires.
4. Discharge your body to ground before removing a new control from its container. Follow steps 1 through 3 if installing the control on a blower. Return any old or new controls to their containers before touching any ungrounded
object.

19.3 Fault Recall
The integrated control module is equipped with a momentary
push-button switch that can be used to display the last six faults
on the 7 segment LED display. The control must be in Standby
Mode (no thermostat inputs) to use the feature. Depress the
push-button for approximately two seconds and less than five seconds. The LED display will then display the six most recent faults
beginning with the most recent fault and decrementing to the
least recent fault. The faults may be cleared by depressing the
button for greater than five seconds.
NOTE: Consecutively repeated faults are displayed a maximum
of three times. Example: A clogged return air filter causes the air
handler’s motor to repeatedly enter a limiting condition. The
control will only store this fault the first three consecutive times
the fault occurs.
20 ComfortNet™ System
20.1 Overview
The ComfortNet system is a system that includes a ComfortNet
compatible air handler and air conditioner or heat pump with a
CTK0* thermostat. Any other system configurations are considered invalid ComfortNet systems and must be connected as a traditional (or non-communicating) system (see the 24 VOLT THERMO-
STAT WIRING - NON-COMMUNICATING THERMOSTAT CONNECTIONS section for
details).
A ComfortNet heating/air conditioning system differs from a non-
communicating/traditional system in the manner in which the indoor unit, outdoor unit and thermostat interact with one another.
In a traditional system, the thermostat sends commands to the
indoor and outdoor units via analog 24 VAC signals. It is a oneway communication path in that the indoor and outdoor units
typically do not return information to the thermostat.
On the other hand, the indoor unit, outdoor unit, and thermostat
comprising a ComfortNet system “communicate” digitally with
one another. It is now a two-way communications path. The
thermostat still sends commands to the indoor and outdoor units.
However, the thermostat may also request and receive information from both the indoor and outdoor units. This information
may be displayed on the ComfortNet thermostat. The indoor and
outdoor units also interact with one another. The outdoor unit
may send commands to or request information from the indoor
unit. This two-way digital communications between the thermostat and subsystems (indoor/outdoor unit) and between subsystems is the key to unlocking the benefits and features of the
ComfortNet system.
Two-way digital communications is accomplished using only two
wires. The thermostat and subsystem controls are powered with
24 VAC Thus, a maximum of 4 wires between the equipment and
thermostat is all that is required to operate the system.
20.1 Airflow Consideration
Airflow demands are managed differently in a fully communicating system than they are in a non-communicating wired system.
The system operating mode (as determined by the thermostat)
determines which unit calculates the system airflow demand. If
the indoor unit is responsible for determining the airflow demand, it calculates the demand and sends it to the ECM motor. If
the outdoor unit or thermostat is responsible for determining the
demand, it calculates the demand and transmits the demand
along with a fan request to the indoor unit. The indoor unit then
sends the demand to the ECM motor. The table below lists the
various ComfortNet systems, the operating mode, and airflow demand source.
For example, assume the system is a heat pump matched with an
air handler. With a call for low stage cooling, the heat pump will
calculate the system’s low stage cooling airflow demand. The heat
pump will then send a fan request along with the low stage cooling airflow demand to the air handler. Once received, the air handler will send the low stage cooling airflow demand to the ECM
motor. The ECM motor then delivers the low stage cooling airflow. See the applicable ComfortNet air conditioner or heat pump
installation manual for the airflow delivered during cooling or heat
pump heating.
In continuous fan mode, the CTK0* thermostat provides the
airflow demand. Depending on which CTK0* thermostat has been
installed three or four continuous fan speeds may be available. If
the thermostat provides three speeds (low, medium, high) they
correspond to 25%, 50% and 75%, respectively, of the air handlers’
maximum airflow capability. If the thermostat provides four
continuous fan speeds then a 100% airflow option is added.
During continuous fan operation, the thermostat sends a fan
request along with the continuous fan demand to the air handler.
The air handler, in turn, sends the demand to the ECM motor. The
ECM motor delivers the requested continuous fan airflow.

20.2 Control Wiring
NOTE:Refer to section Electrical Connections for 208/230 volt
line connections to the air handler.
NOTE: A removable plug connector is provided with the control
to make thermostat wire connections. This plug may be removed,
wire connections made to the plug, and replaced. It is STRONGLY
recommended that you do not connect multiple wires into a
single terminal. Wire nuts are recommended to ensure one
wire is used for each terminal. Failure to do so may result in
intermittent operation.
Typical 18 AWG thermostat wire may be used to wire the system
components. One hundred and fifty (150) feet is the maximum
length of wire recommended between indoor unit and outdoor
unit, or between indoor unit and thermostat.
Only the data lines 1 and 2 are required between the indoor and
outdoor units. A 40VA, 208/230 VAC to 24 VAC transformer must
be installed in the outdoor unit to provide 24 VAC power to the
outdoor unit’s electronic control. See kit instructions for mounting and wiring instructions.

20.5 Diagnostics
Accessing the air handler’s diagnostics menu provides ready
access to the last six faults detected by the air handler. Faults
are stored most recent to least recent. Any consecutively repeated fault is stored a maximum of three times. Example: A
clogged return air filter causes the air handler’s motor to repeatedly entera limiting condition. The control will only store this
fault the first three consecutive times the fault occurs.
NOTE: It is highly recommended that the fault history be cleared
after performing maintenance or servicing the air handler.
20.6 Network Troubleshooting
The ComfortNet system is a fully communicating system, and
thus, constitutes a network. Occasionally the need to troubleshoot the network may arise. The integrated air handler control
has some on-board tools that may be used to troubleshoot the
network. These tools are: red communications LED, green receive (Rx) LED, and learn button. Refer to the CommunicationsTroubleshooting Chart at the end of this manual for error codes,
possible causes and corrective actions.
•Red communications LED – Indicates the status of the network. The table below indicates the LED status and the
corresponding potential problem.
•Green receive LED – Indicates network traffic. The
COMMUNICATIONS TROUBLESHOOTING CHART indicates
the LED status and the corresponding potential problem.
•Learn button – Used to reset the network. Depress the
button for approximately 2 seconds to reset the network.
20.4 ComfortNet™ System Advanced Features
The ComfortNet system permits access to additional system information, advanced set-up features, and advanced diagnostic/
troubleshooting features. These advanced features are organized
into a menu structure. See the AIR HANDLER ADVANCED FEATURES MENU section for layout of menu shortcuts.
20.7 System Troubleshooting
NOTE: Refer to the instructions accompanying the ComfortNet
compatible outdoor AC/HP unit for troubleshooting information.
Refer to the Troubleshooting Chart at the end of this manual for a
listing of possible air handler error codes, possible causes and
corrective actions.

21 Start-Up Procedure
•Prior to start-up, ensure that all electrical connections are
properly sized and tightened.
•All panels must be in place and secured. For Air Tight application, neoprene gasket must be positioned at prescribed
locations to achieve low airflow as stated in section 13.
•Tubing must be leak free.
•Unit should be elevated, trapped and pitched to allow for
drainage.
•Low voltage wiring is connected.
•Auxiliary drain is installed when necessary and pitched to
allow for drainage.
•Drain pan and drain tubing has been leak checked.
•Return and supply ducts are sealed.
•Unit is elevated when installed in a garage or where flammable vapors may be present.
•Unit is protected from vehicular or other physical damage.
•Return air is not obtained from any areas where there may
be objectionable odors, flammable vapors or products of
combustion such as carbon monoxide (CO), which may
cause serious personal injury or death.
22 Regular Maintenance
HIGH VOLTAGE!
Disconnect ALL power before servicing.
Multiple power sources may be present.
Failure to do so may cause property damage,
personal injury or death.
The only item to be maintained on a regular basis by the user is
the circulating air filter(s). Filter should be cleaned or replaced
regularly. A certified service technician must perform all other
services.

AIR HANDLER
AIR HANDLER HOMEOWNER’S ROUTINE MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS
We strongly recommend a bi-annual maintenance checkup be performed before the heating and cooling seasons begin by a qualified servicer.
REPLACE OR CLEAN FILTER
IMPORTANT NOTE: Never operate unit without a filter installed as dust and lint will build up on internal parts resulting in loss of
efficiency, equipment damage and possible fire.
An indoor air filter must be used with your comfort system. A properly maintained filter will keep the indoor coil of your comfort
system clean. A dirty coil could cause poor operation and/or severe equipment damage.
Your air filter or filters could be located in your furnace, in a blower unit, or in “filter grilles” in your ceiling or walls. The installer of your
air conditioner or heat pump can tell you where your filter(s) are, and how to clean or replace them.
Check your filter(s) at least once a month. When they are dirty, replace or clean as required. Disposable type filters should be replaced.
Reusable type filters may be cleaned.
You may want to ask your dealer about high efficiency filters. High efficiency filters are available in both electronic and non-electronic
types. These filters can do a better job of catching small airborne
particles.
MOTORS
Indoor and outdoor fan motors are permanently lubricated and
do not require additional oiling.
This unit is equipped with an aluminum tube evaporator coil. The safest way to clean the evaporator coil is to simply flush the coil with
water. This cleaning practice remains as the recommended cleaning method for both copper tube and aluminum tube residential
evaporator coils.
It has been determined that many coil cleaners and drain pan tablets contain corrosive chemicals that can be harmful to aluminum
tube and fin evaporator coils. Even a one-time application of these corrosive chemicals can cause premature aluminum evaporator coil
failure. Any cleaners that contain corrosive chemicals including, but not limited to, chlorine and hydroxides, should not be used.
An alternate cleaning method is to use one of the products listed in TP-109* to clean the coils. The cleaners listed are the only agents
deemed safe and approved for use to clean round tube aluminum coils. TP-109 is also available on the web site in Partner Link > Service
Toolkit.
NOTE: Ensure coils are rinsed well after use of any chemical cleaners.
BEFORE YOU CALL YOUR SERVICER
•Check the thermostat to confirm that it is properly set.
•Wait 15 minutes. Some devices in the outdoor unit or in
programmable thermostats will prevent compressor operation for awhile, and then reset automatically. Also, some
power companies will install devices which shut off air conditioners for several minutes on hot days. If you wait several minutes, the unit may begin operation on its own.
•Check the electrical panel for tripped circuit breakers or
failed fuses. Reset the circuit breakers or replace fuses as necessary.
•Check the disconnect switch near the indoor furnace or blower to confirm that it is closed.
•Check for obstructions on the outdoor unit . Confirm that it has not been covered on the sides or the top. Remove any obstruction that can be safely removed. If the unit is covered with dirt or debris, call a qualified servicer to clean it.
•Check for blockage of the indoor air inlets and outlets. Confirm that they are open and have not been blocked by objects (rugs,
curtains or furniture).
•Check the filter. If it is dirty, clean or replace it.
•Listen for any unusual noise(s), other than normal operating noise, that might be coming from the outdoor unit. If you hear
unusual noise(s) coming from the unit, call a qualified servicer.
