SHIPPING DAMAGE
Upon receipt of equipment, the carton should be
checked for external signs of shipping damage. If
damage is found, the receiving party must contact the
last carrier immediately, preferably in writing,
requesting inspection by the carrier’s agent.
GENERAL
The equipment covered in this manual is to be installed
by trained, experienced service and installation
technicians.
The refrigerant system is completely assembled and
charged. All internal wiring is complete.
The unit is designed for use with or without duct work.
Flanges are provided for attaching the supply and return
ducts.
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 “Starting
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 1 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 Association
for the Installation of Air Conditioning and Ventilating
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.
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, supply and return,
must be properly sized for the design air flow
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.
Manual 2100-414C
Page4
Design the duct work according to methods given by the
Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA).
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.
A 1/4 inch clearance to combustible material for the
first three feet of duct attached to the outlet air frame is
required. See Wall Mounting Instructions and Figures 3
and 4 for further details.
Ducts through the walls must be insulated and all joints
taped or sealed to prevent air or moisture entering the
wall cavity.
Some installations may not require any return air duct.
A metallic return air grille is required with installations
not requiring a return air duct. The spacing between
louvers on the grille shall not be larger than 5/8 inch.
FRESH AIR INTAKE
All units are built with fresh air inlet slots punched in
the service panel.
If the unit is equipped with a fresh air damper assembly,
the assembly is shipped already attached to the unit.
The damper blade is locked in the closed position. To
allow the damper to operate, the maximum and
minimum blade position stops must be installed. See
Figure 2.
All capacity, efficiency and cost of operation
information as required for Department of Energy
“Energyguide” Fact Sheets is 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.
NOTE: If no return air duct is used, applicable
installation codes may limit this cabinet to
installation only in a single story structure.
Any grille that meets with 5/8 inch louver criteria may
be used. It is recommended that Bard Return Air Grille
Kit RG2 through RG5 or RFG2 through RFG5 be
installed when no return duct is used. Contact
distributor or factory for ordering information. If using
a return air filter grille, filters must be of sufficient size
to allow a maximum velocity of 400 fpm.
FILTERS
A 1-inch throwaway filter is supplied with each unit.
The filter slides into position making it easy to service.
This filter can be serviced from the outside by removing
the service door. A 1-inch washable filter and a 2-inch
pleated filter are also available as optional accessories.
The internal filter brackets are adjustable to
accommodate the 2-inch filter by bending down the two
horizontal tabs on each filter bracket.

MIS-938
CONDENSATE DRAIN – EVAPORATOR
A plastic drain hose extends from the drain pan at the
top of the unit down to the unit base. There are
openings in the unit base for the drain hose to pass
through. In the event the drain hose is connected to a
drain system of some type, it must be an open or vented
type system to assure proper drainage.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WALL MOUNTING INFORMATION
1. Two holes for the supply and return air openings
must be cut through the wall as shown in Figure 3.
WARNING
2. On wood frame walls, the wall construction must be
strong and rigid enough to carry the weight of the
unit without transmitting any unit vibration.
WARNING
Fire hazard can result if 1/4 inch clearance to
combustible materials for supply air duct is
not maintained. See Figure 4.
3. Concrete block walls must be thoroughly inspected
to insure that they are capable of carrying the weight
of the installed unit.
MOUNTING THE UNIT
1. These units are secured by wall mounting brackets
which secure the unit to the outside wall surface at
both sides. A bottom mounting bracket is provided
for ease of installation, but is not required.
2. The unit itself is suitable for 0 inch clearance, but
the supply air duct flange and the first 3 feet of
supply air duct require a minimum of 1/4 inch
clearance to combustible material. If a combustible
wall use a minimum of 30-1/2" x 10-1/2"
dimensions for sizing. However it is generally
recommended that a 1-inch clearance is used for
ease of installation and maintaining the required
clearance to combustible material. The supply air
opening would then be 32" x 12". See Figures 3 and
4 for details.
Failure to provide the 1/4 inch clearance
between the supply duct and a combustible
surface for the first 3 feet of duct can result in
fire causing property damage, injury or death.
3. Locate and mark lag bolt locations and bottom
mounting bracket location. See Figure 3.
4. Mount bottom mounting bracket.
5. Hook top rain flashing under back bend of top. Top
rain flashing is shipped with unit attached to back of
unit on the right side.
6. Position unit in opening and secure with 5/16 lag
bolts; use 3/4 inch diameter flat washers on the lag
bolts.
7. Secure rain flashing to wall and caulk across entire
length of top. See Figure 3.
8. For additional mounting rigidity, the return air and
supply air frames or collars can be drilled and
screwed or welded to the structural wall itself
(depending upon wall construction). Be sure to
observe required clearance if combustible wall.
9. On side by side installations, maintain a minimum of
20 inches clearance on right side to allow access to
control panel and heat strips, and to allow proper
airflow to the outdoor coil. Additional clearance
may be required to meet local or national codes.
