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
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.
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.
It is recommended that the unit not be removed from the
skid with a forklift.
The shipping brackets on each side of the unit must be
removed and discarded. See Figure 2-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
the front wheels hang over the edge of the skid. See
Figure 2-B. The unit can be tipped forward and slid
down the edge of the skid until the front wheels touch
the ground. See Figure 2-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.
REMOVAL OF UNIT FROM SKID
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 can not 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. Theunit should always be carted from the left side. This is
the side where the compressor is located. See Figure 3.
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.

The wall brackets are attached to the back of the unit.
Remove and retain the wall brackets for use when
attaching the unit to the wall. In units equipped with a
ventilator a wall sleeve is required and these two wall
brackets are not included. A different style bracket is
supplied with the sleeve assembly.
GENERAL
The equipment covered in this manual is to be installed
by trained, experienced service and installation
technicians.
The unit is designed for use with or without duct work.
For use without duct work, Plenum Box QPB** is
recommended.
These instructions explain the recommended method to
install the water source 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.
STRAP
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 4 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. 9 in. This provides enough
clearance for the plenum to be removed. See Figure 5.
The minimum installation height for ducted applications
is 8 ft. 9 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.
NOTE: Unit cabinet, supply air duct and free blow
plenum are approved for “0” clearance to
combustible material.
The Q-Tec Series heat pumps are designed for use with
free return (non-ducted) and either free blow with the
use of QPB Plenum Box or a duct supply air system.
The QPB Plenum Box mounts on top of the unit and has
both vertically and horizontally adjustable louvers on
the front discharge grille.

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
airflow up to the Maximum ESP shown in Table 4.
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 2-inch pleated filters are supplied with each unit.
The filters fit into a fixed rack.
The filters are serviced from the inside of the building .
To gain access to the filters release the latch on the
circuit breaker door and one 1/4 turn fastener near the
bottom of the door. This door is hinged on the left so it
will swing open.
The internal filter brackets are adjustable to
accommodate 1-inch filters. The tabs for the 1-inch
filters must be bent up to allow the 1-inch filters to slide
in place.
CONDENSATE DRAIN
The condensate drain hose is routed down from the
evaporator drain pan on the right side of the unit into the
compressor compartment. There are three locations that
the drain can exit the cabinet.
If the drain is to be hard plumbed, there is a 3/4 inch
FPT pipe connection located on the cabinet rear panel.
In these installations, the drain tube is to be slipped over
the pipe connection inside of the cabinet; this is how it
is shipped from the factory. (See Figure 8C.)
For a stand pipe type of drain, the drain hose can exit
the rear of the cabinet. There is adequate hose length to
reach the floor on the right hand side of the unit. (See
Figure 8A.)
NOTE: Whichever type of drain connection is used a
“P” trap must be formed. See Figure 8A.

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.
FIGURE 8B
OPTIONAL REAR DRAIN
Manual 2100-532B
Page12 of 46
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 8B. 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 8C.
If the drain is to
be routed through an unconditioned space, it must
be protected from freezing.
MIST ELIMINATOR SERVICE (Optional –
only used with one of the vent options)
A mist eliminator is supplied with the wall sleeve. The
mist eliminator is constructed of aluminum frame and
mesh. The mist eliminator is located in the top section
of the wall sleeve and can be removed from the inside of
the building without removing the unit from the wall.
This requires that the ventilation package must be
removed.
The steps necessary to remove each of the vent options
are listed following.
