SHIPPING DAMAGE
DUCT WORK
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.
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.
Refer to Table 9 for maximum static pressure available
for duct design.
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 1 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
4 and 5 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.
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.
CAUTION
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 inches.
Any grille that meets the 5/8 inch louver criteria, may
be used. It is recommended that Bard Return Air Grille
Kit RG-2 thru RG-5 or RFG-2 thru RFG-5 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.
NOTE: If no return air duct is used, applicable
installation codes may limit this cabinet to
installation only in a single story structure.

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 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
tabs to allow spacing for the 2 inch filters.
FRESH AIR INTAKE
All units are built with fresh air inlet slots punched in
the service panel.
If the unit is equipped with the 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 minium blade position stops must be installed.
See Figure 2.
BLOWER DAMPER ASSEMBLY
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.
CONDENSATE DRAIN
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.
