1 Maximum size of the time delay fuse or HACR type circuit breaker for protection of field wiring conductors. 2 Based on 75°C copper wire. All wiring must conform to the National Electrical Code and all local codes. 3 These “Minimum Circuit Ampacity” values are to be used for sizing the field power conductors. Refer to the National Electric Code (latest
revision), article 310 for power conductor sizing.
Caution: When more than one field power conductor circuit is run through one conduit, the conductors must be derated. Pay special
attention to note 8 of table 310 regarding Ampacity Adjustment Factors when more than three conductors are in a raceway.
4 Maximum KW that can operate with heat pump on is 10KW. Other 5KW energizes during emergency heat only. 5 Maximum KW that can operate with heat pump on is 9KW. Other 6KW energizes during emergency heat only.

SHIPPING DAMAGE
Upon receipt of equipment, the carton should be checked for external signs of shipping damage. The skid must remain attached to the unit until the unit is ready for installation. If damage is found, the receiving party must contact the last carrier immediately, preferably in writing, requesting inspection by the carrier’s agent.
UNIT REMOVAL FROM SKID
WARNING
This unit is heavy and requires more than one person to handle and remove from the skid. Check unit wheels to ensure that wheels are locked before removing from skid. Extreme caution must be taken to prevent injury to personnel and damage to the unit.
FIGURE 2
AIR SEAL UNDER QT
Air Seal
EC
UNIT
It is recommended that the unit not be removed from the skid with a forklift since the air seal under the unit could be damaged. See Figure 2.
The shipping brackets on each side of the unit must be removed and discarded. See Figure 3-A. The return air grille panel can be removed to provide a place to hold the unit. The unit can be slid forward on the skid until
REMOVAL OF UNIT FROM SKID
the front wheels hang over the edge of the skid. See Figure 3-B. The unit can be tipped forward and slid down the edge of the skid until the front wheels touch the ground. See Figure 3-C. The wheels will not roll. They are shipped from the factory locked so they will not roll. The back of the skid will have to be held down to keep it from tipping up. The skid can be slid out from under the unit. The unit can then be set upright.

Manual 2100-519C Page 7 of 42
HANDLING UNIT AFTER REMOVAL FROM SKID
WARNING
Exercise extreme caution when pushing the unit on the rollers. Handle and push from the lower 1/3 of the unit. Insure that debris is not on the floor where the unit is to be moved on the rollers. Failure to do so could result in the unit tipping over and causing bodily injury and/ or damage to the unit.
The blade of the appliance cart should be slid under the wheels of the unit. The strap of the appliance cart should be placed around the unit and strapped tightly. Help will be required to tip the unit back onto the cart. The unit can be leaned far enough back to be rolled through the door. Be careful when setting the unit back up to keep from damaging the unit.
GENERAL
The equipment covered in this manual is to be installed by trained, experienced service and installation technicians.
The unit will have to be turned sideways and removed from the skid to fit through a 36" doorway. If the door height allows, the unit can be slid sideways through the door.
If the unit cannot be slid through the door, then the unit will have to be put on a cart and tipped down to roll through the door. It is recommended that an appliance cart be used with a strap to hold the unit on the cart. The wheels of the unit must be locked. If the wheels were allowed to roll, the unit could roll off the cart. The unit should always be carted from the left side. This is the side where the compressor is located. See Figure 4.
FIGURE 4
UNIT ON APPLIANCE CART
Q-TEC UNIT (Right Side)
STRAP
APPLIANCE CART
A QWS-Series wall sleeve supplied as a separate accessory must be ordered and installed with Q-Tec unit.
The unit is designed for use with or without duct work. For use without duct work, Plenum Box QPB42 is recommended.
These instructions explain the recommended method to install the air cooled self-contained unit and the electrical wiring connections to the unit.
These instructions and any instructions packaged with any separate equipment required to make up the entire air conditioning system should be carefully read before beginning the installation. Note particularly “Start Procedure” and any tags and/or labels attached to the equipment.
While these instructions are intended as a general recommended guide, they do not supersede any national and/or local codes in any way. Authorities having jurisdiction should be consulted before the installation is made. See Page 3 for information on codes and standards.
Size of unit for a proposed installation should be based on heat loss calculation made according to methods of Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA). The air duct should be installed in accordance with the Standards of the National Fire Protection Systems of Other Than Residence Type, NFPA No. 90A, and Residence Type Warm Air Heating and Air Conditioning Systems, NFPA No. 90B. Where local regulations are at a variance with instructions, installer should adhere to local codes.

MINIMUM INSTALLATION HEIGHT
The minimum installation height of the unit with a Free Blow Plenum is 8 ft. 6 in. This provides enough clearance for the plenum to be removed. See Figure 5.
The minimum installation height for ducted applications is 8 ft. 4½ in. This provides enough clearance to install the duct work. See Figure 6.

DUCT WORK
Any heat pump is more critical of proper operating charge and an adequate duct system than a straight air conditioning unit. All duct work must be properly sized for the design airflow requirement of the equipment. Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA) is an excellent guide to proper sizing. All duct work or portions thereof not in the conditioned space should be properly insulated in order to both conserve energy and prevent condensation or moisture damage. When duct runs through unheated spaces, it should be insulated with a minimum of one inch of insulation. Use insulation with a vapor barrier on the outside of the insulation. Flexible joints should be used to connect the duct work to the equipment in order to keep the noise transmission to a minimum.
The Q-TEC series heat pump has provision to attach a supply air duct to the top of the unit. Duct connection size is 12 inches x 20 inches. The duct work is field supplied and must be attached in a manner to allow for ease of removal when it becomes necessary to slide the unit out from the wall for service. See Figure 7 for suggested attachment method.

SUPPLIED
For hot water coil option a QPBHWxx-F for free blow or QPBHWxx-D for ducted airflow is used.
When used with a ducted supply, a QCX Cabinet Extension can be used to conceal the duct work above the unit to the ceiling. This extends 20" above the unit for a total height above the floor of 10'-7/8". The unit is equipped with a variable speed indoor blower motor which increases in speed with an increase in duct static pressure. The unit will therefore deliver proper rated air flow up to the maximum ESP shown in Table 9. However, for quiet operation of the air system, the duct static should be kept as low as practical, within the guidelines of good duct design.
FILTERS
Two 1-inch throw away filters [(1) 16x16 and (1) 16x20] are supplied with each unit. The filters slide into filter brackets. Refer to Figure 8.
The filters are serviced from the inside of the building by opening the hinged door. This door is attached by T-25 torx screw and one locking latch.
The internal filter brackets are adjustable to accommodate 2-inch filters. The tabs for the 1-inch filters must be bent down to allow the 2-inch filters to slide in place.

RETURN AIR GRILLE
FRESH AIR INTAKE
This unit is equipped with a fresh air damper assembly. The damper blade is locked in the closed position when the unit is shipped from the Factory. To allow the damper to operate remove the two plastic locking pins, one on each end of the blade. This will allow for maximum fresh airflow. The damper blade will now open when the indoor blower is operating. If less than maximum fresh airflow is required, reinsert the plastic pins to limit damper blade opening to desired level. Two extra pins are provided (taped to the inside of the assembly) which may be used to hold the blade in some position other than minimum or maximum position. This fresh air assembly is located in the rear of the unit and to gain access to make these adjustments remove the air filter service door.
All capacity, efficiency and cost of operation information as required for Department of Energy “Energyguide” Fact Sheets are based upon the fresh air blank-off plate in place and is recommended for maximum energy efficiency.
The blank-off plate is available upon request from the factory and is installed in place of the fresh air damper shipped with each unit.
For details on energy recovery ventilation see Page 30.
SERVICE LIGHT
The unit is equipped with a service light which signals the user that service is required. The light is located in the upper control panel and is visible only when the hinged service/filter access door is open.
The Service Unit light indicates that the unit has been shut off by a high or low pressure device. This indicates that the unit needs to be serviced. See Page 33 for details.
CONDENSATE DRAIN
There are two drain connections on the unit. The rear drain is the primary drain, and is located on the right lower rear panel of the unit. The optional side drain is located on the bottom right side of the unit. The side drain is shipped with a plug installed.
The rear drain can be used with wall thickness of up to 10 inches where a water trap can be installed between the unit and the interior wall. See Figure 10. The trap cannot extend beyond the edge of the unit or it will interfere with the wall mounting bracket. The drain can be routed through the floor or through the wall. If the drain is routed through the wall, the drain line must be positioned such that it will not interfere with the sleeve flange or the grille. See Figure 11. If the drain is to be
routed through an unconditioned space, it must be protected from freezing.
OPTIONAL REAR DRAIN KITS
Optional Rear Drain Kit, Bard Model QCDS48A, is also available for these products. The optional rear drain kit offers multiple benefits that include the following:
• Allows unit to be rolled away from the sleeve without having to disconnect any hard plumbing connections.
• Allows indoor coil condensate to be easily connected to Rear Drain Box while bypassing the outdoor coil drain pan. This aids in minimizing the potential for biological growth to occur by minimizing the standing water and exposing it to warm temperatures.
See Figures 12A, 12B, 12C and 12D.
The drain box permanently mounts onto the wall sleeve and is then either piped directly outdoors, or can be piped vertically. The Q-Tec unit is then equipped with fittings on the rear of the unit that slide into the drain box as it is wheeled towards the wall sleeve.
NOTE: On models equipped with a refrigerant subcooler in the lower drain pan may experience a 2­3% decrease in cooling performance and efficiency when the indoor condensate is routed around the outdoor coil drain pan/subcooler assembly. Unit rated performance and efficiency are with the indoor condensate routed to the outdoor coil pan.
There is also a heated version of the rear drain box available (Model #QCDS48H) for installation in northern climates where freezing may occur.
The side drain requires a water trap for proper drainage. See Figure 9. The drain can be routed through the floor or through the wall. If the drain is to be routed through
an unconditioned space, it must be protected from freezing. The drain line must be able to be removed from
the unit if it is necessary to remove the unit from the wall. When the side drain is used, the plug must be removed and installed in the rear drain outlet.
