RECEIVING AND INSTALLATION
I. STEP 1 — CHECK EQUIPMENT
A. Identify Unit
The unit model number and serial number are stamped on
unit identification plate. Check this information against shipping papers and job data.
B. Inspect Shipment
Inspect for shipping damage while unit is still on shipping
pallet. If unit appears to be damaged or is torn loose from its
anchorage, have it examined by transportation inspectors before removal. Forward claim papers directly to transportation company. Manufacturer is not responsible for any damage incurred in transit.
Check all items against shipping list. Immediately notify your
Bryant Heating and Cooling representative if any item is
missing.
To prevent loss or damage, leave all parts in original packages until installation.
Ducts passing through an unconditioned space must be insulated and covered with a vapor barrier.
If a plenum return is used on a vertical unit, the return should
be ducted through the roof deck to comply with applicable
fire codes.
Aminimum clearance is not required around ductwork. Cabinet return-air static shall not exceed −.25 in. wg.
IV. STEP 4 — PROVIDE CLEARANCES
The required minimum operating and service clearances are
shown in Fig. 2-9.Adequatecombustion, ventilation, and condenser air must be provided, in accordance with section 5.3,
Air for Combustion and Ventilation,of the National Fuel Gas
CodeANSIZ223.1 (in Canada, sections 7.2, 7.3 or 7.4 or Can/
CGA [Canadian Gas Association] B149 Installation Codes),
or applicable provisions of local building code.
CAUTION:
Do not restrict condenser airflow. An air
restriction at either the outdoor-air inlet or the fan discharge can be detrimental to compressor life.
II. STEP 2 — PROVIDE UNIT SUPPORT
A. Roof Curb
Install accessory roof curb in accordance with instructions
shipped with curb. See Fig. 10 for roof curb dimensions. Install insulation, cant strips, roofing, and flashing. Ductwork
must be attached to curb.
IMPORTANT: The gasketing of the unit to the roof curb is
critical for a watertight seal. Install gasketing material supplied with the roof curb. Improperly applied gasketing can
also result in air leaks and poor unit performance.
1
Curb should be level to within
⁄4inch. This is necessary for
unit drain to function properly. Refer to accessory roof curb
installation instructions for additional information as
required.
B. Slab Mount
Place the unit on a solid, level concrete pad that is a minimum of 4 in. thick with 2 in. above grade. The slab should be
flush on the front of the unit (to allow condensate drain installation) and should extend 2 in. on the three remaining
sides of the unit. See Fig. 11. Install a 6-in. gravel apron in
front of condenser-air inlets to prevent obstruction of airflow
by grass or shrubs. Do not secure the unit to the slab except
when required by local codes.
C. Flush Mount
Place side of unit with duct panel flush against transition.
On units with optional base rails, the skirt on duct-panel side
of unit canberemoved to allow unit to be mounted flushagainst
transitions that extend below basepan of unit. To remove skirt,
remove 4 screws holding skirt to base rail. Then, remove skirt.
T oremove wood support under unit (with base railonly),loosen
4 screws above rigging holes and slide assembly out through
rectangular hole.
The condenser fan pushes air through the condenser coil and
discharges it through the bank of louvers in the top cover,
the decorative grille on the right side of the unit, and the compressor access panel. Be sure that the fan discharge does not
recirculate to the condenser coil. Do not locate the unit in either a corner or under an overhead obstruction. The minimum clearance under a partial overhang (such as a normal
house overhang) is 48-in. above the unit top. The maximum
horizontal extension of a partial overhang must not exceed
48 inches.
Do not place the unit where water, ice, or snow from an overhang or roof will damage or flood the unit. Do not install the
unit on carpeting, tile, or other combustible materials. The
unit may be installed on wood flooring or on Class A, B, or C
roof covering materials.
V. STEP 5 — RIG AND PLACE UNIT
CAUTION:
When installing the unit on a rooftop, be
sure the roof will support the additional weight. Refer
to Fig. 2-9 for corner weight information.
Use spreader bars or crate top when rigging the unit. The
units must be rigged for lifting as shown in Fig. 12 and 13.
Refer to Tables 1 and 2 for operating weight and to Fig. 2-9
for corner weights. Use extreme caution to prevent damage
when moving the unit. Unit must remain in an upright position during all rigging and moving operations. The unit must
be level for proper condensate drainage; therefore, the groundlevel pad or accessory roof curb must be level before setting
the unit in place. When a field-fabricated support is used, be
sure that the support is level and properly supports the unit.
III. STEP 3 — FIELD FABRICATE DUCTWORK
Secure all ducts to roof curb and building structure on vertical discharge units. Do not connect ductwork to unit. For horizontal applications, unit is provided with flanges on the horizontal openings.All ductwork should be secured to the flanges.

3
in. NPTfittingwhich exits through the compressor access panel.
See Fig. 2-9 for location.
Condensate water can be drained directly onto the roof in rooftop installations (where permitted) or onto a gravel apron in
ground-level installations. Install a field-supplied condensate trap at end of condensate connection to ensure proper
drainage. Make sure that the outlet of the trap is at least
1 in. lower than the drain-pan condensate connection to prevent the pan from overflowing. See Fig. 14. Prime the trap
with water. When using a gravel apron, make sure it slopes
away from the unit.
If the installation requiresdrainingthecondensate water away
from the unit, install a 2-in. trap at the condensate connection to ensure proper drainage. See Fig. 14. Make sure that
the outlet of the trap is at least 1 in. lower than the drainpan condensate connection to prevent the pan from overflowing. Prime the trap with water. Connect a drain tube using a
3
minimum of
⁄4-in. PVC or3⁄4-in. copper pipe (all fieldsupplied) at the outlet end of the 2-in. trap. Do not undersize
the tube. Pitch the drain tube downward at a slope of at least
one in. for every 10 ft of horizontal run. Be sure to check the
drain tube for leaks.

⁄8-in. NPT plugged tapping accessible for test gage con-
An
nection must be installed immediately upstream of the gas
supply connection to the furnace.
When installing the gas supply line, observe local codes pertaining to gas pipe installations. Refer to the NFGC ANSI
Z223.1-1988 NFP Alatestedition(inCanada, CAN/CGA B149.1,
(2)-M86). In the absence of local building codes, adhere to the
following pertinent recommendations:
1. Avoid low spots in long runs of pipe. Grade all pipe
1
⁄4inch in every 15 ft to prevent traps. Grade all horizontal runs downward to risers. Use risers to connect to
heating section and to meter.
2. Protect all segments of piping system against physical
and thermal damage. Support all piping with appropriate straps, hangers, etc. Use a minimum of one hanger
1
every 6 ft. For pipe sizes larger than
⁄2in., follow rec-
ommendations of national codes.
3. Apply joint compound (pipe dope) sparingly and only to
male threads of joint when making pipe connections. Use
only pipe dope that is resistant to action of liquefied
petroleum gasesasspecified by local and/or national codes.
Never use Teflon tape.
4. Install sediment trap in riser leading to heating section
per Fig. 15. This drip leg functions as a trap for dirt and
condensate.
5. Installan accessible, external, manual main shutoff valve
in gas supply pipe within 6 ft of heating section.
6. Install ground-joint union close to heating section between unit manual shutoff and external manual main
shutoff valve.
7. Pressure-test all gas piping in accordance with local and
national plumbing and gas codes before connecting piping to unit.
NOTE: Pressuretest the gas supply system after the gas sup-
ply piping is connected to the gas valve. The supply piping
must be disconnected from the gas valve during the testing
of the piping systems when test pressure is in excess of
0.5 psig. Pressure test the gas supply piping system at pressures equal to or less than 0.5 psig. The unit heating section
must be isolated from the gas piping system by closing the
external main manual shutoff valve and slightly opening the
ground-joint union.
