unit to 18,000 Btuh. Unplug the fan motor at the control box
harness and plug into the 619CN018 marked connector.
II. STEP 2 — SELECT LOCATION
Consult local building codes and NEC for special installation
requirements. See Fig. 3 and 4 for unit dimensions and
required clearances.
There are several ways the unit may be installed to different
types of ceiling construction. These instructions do not cover
all installation methods. As a typical installation, these
instructions focus primarily on mounting the unit to metal in
new construction. Plan the installation carefully before you
begin. Listed below are some guidelines that should be followed when determining location for the unit.
1. Place unit adjacent to an outside wall if fresh air is
required, ensuring that location allows for complete
air distribution.
2. Locate the thermostat in an area that is not subjected
to drafts or direct sunlight through windows. Locate
the thermostat on an internal wall whenever possible.
3. Allow sufficient clearance for airflow, wiring, refrigerant piping, and servicing unit (Fig. 3 and 4).
4. Make sure the unit is easily accessible to electrical
power.
5. Run refrigerant piping as directly as possible and
avoid any unnecessary turns or bends.
6. Condensate piping can be directed through the inside
wall to an approved drain or straight outside.
NOTE: The piping hole for condensate line must slope at a
1
minimum pitch of
/4 in. per foot to ensure proper drainage.
If proper pitch cannot be achieved, install accessory condensate pump at this time.
III. STEP 3 — MOUNT UNIT
Refer to Fig. 4 for clearances and dimensions. Use mounting
template included inside box to locate mounting bolt holes,
piping holes, electrical connections, and accessory outdoorair intake, if used.
Select proper type of hardware from the guidelines below.
See Fig. 5.
CAUTION: Solid structure in ceiling must be used
due to the weight of the unit.
A. Wooden Structure
Install hanging bolts on a square wooden piece placed over
beams.
B. Newly Built Concrete Slab
Install hanging bolts with inserts, embedded bolts, etc.
C. Metal Structure
Install hanging bolts utilizing an existing angle or by installing a new support angle.
D. Previously Built Concrete Slab
Install hanging bolts with expansion anchor.
E. To Mount Unit:
1. Remove mounting bracket and reinstall the 2 hexhead bolts (factory-supplied) into each side of indoor
a40-524
Fig. 5 — Fan Coil Unit Mounting Methods
(Hardware is Field-Supplied)
unit as shown in Fig. 6. Allow approximately
space between bolt head and unit.
2. Determine installation position, paying particular
attention to piping lengths, wiring connections, clearances, etc. See Fig. 3 for connection locations, Fig. 4
for clearances, and Fig. 7 and 8 for bolt locations.
3. Open knockout if right-side piping connections are
required (Fig. 9), by removing the pre-slit portion in
the rear of the right side panel with a saw or cutter
knife.
4. Mount hanging brackets on ceiling (Fig. 10) for either
concealed or exposed bolt hanging position.
5. Lift the unit into place, and fit the hex-head bolts on
sides of indoor unit into mounting slots of mounting
brackets (Fig. 11). Ensure unit is mounted with a
slight tilt to the right rear side for proper drainage.

F. To Install Thermostat:
3
If there is at least
/8 in. of space between the back of indoor
unit and wall:
1. Route thermostat wires (field-supplied) through slot
in right side or rear panel of indoor unit (Fig. 3).
2. Route wires over refrigerant and drain piping as
shown in Fig. 12.
IMPORTANT: Do not route wires under the piping, or wires
could impede air filter removal.
IV. STEP 4 — CONNECT REFRIGERANT PIPING
Fan coil units may be connected to outdoor units using fieldsupplied refrigerant grade piping. Refer to Tables 3A and 3B
for the correct size piping. The length of refrigerant pipe
depends on the unit placement and building structure; run
pipes as directly as possible. For piping requirements over
50 ft of total run, or more than 25 ft of lift, consult the
Residential Long Line Application Guide.
CAUTION: DO NOT BURY MORE THAN 36 IN.
OF REFRIGERANT PIPE IN THE GROUND. If any
section of pipe is buried, there must be a 6-in. vertical
rise to the valve connections on the outdoor unit. If
more than the recommended length is buried, refriger-
8
2
4
8
ant may migrate to the cooler, buried section during
extended periods of unit shutdown, causing refrigerant
slugging and possible compressor damage at start-up.
To connect piping:
1. Install insulation. It is extremely important that all
refrigerant lines and the metering device be
insulated on heat pumps and multi-splits. On cooling
only units, the liquid line may be left uninsulated.
Use any acceptable heat resistant closed-cell foam
3
insulation (minimum
/8-in. wall thickness). When
insulating piping, cap ends and slide insulation over
the piping. Insulation can also be cut and placed over
piping.
2. Run liquid and gas refrigerant piping.
a. Run pipes as directly as possible, and avoid any
unnecessary turns and bends.
b. Suspend refrigerant pipes so that the insulation
is not damaged and vibrations are not transmitted to the structure.
c. Leave slack in the refrigerant pipe between the
structure and the unit to absorb vibrations.
d. A piston is shipped in the factory-installed
metering device body (Fig. 13) with the indoor
unit. Use Tables 4A-4C to verify that you have
the required piston size for the system being
installed.
IMPORTANT: The metering device is factory-installed and
only needs to be replaced for long line applications or if the
system combination requires it. See Tables 4A-4C. See
Fig. 13.
e. For special applications such as long lines or
raised elevations, consult the Residential Long
Line Application Guide for specific system
requirements. The arrow on the metering device
body must face away from the indoor coil.
f. Refer to the outdoor unit Installation, Start-Up and
Service Instructions for additional information.
g. Install a factory-supplied filter drier near the
outdoor unit. On heat pump systems, a bi-flow
filter drier must be used.
—7—
3. Insulate and caulk wall openings to reduce air infiltration and refrigerant pipe vibrations on structure.
4. Evacuate piping, if necessary. If either refrigerant
piping or the indoor coil is exposed to atmospheric
conditions, it must be evacuated to 1000 microns to
eliminate contamination and moisture in the system.
V. STEP 5 — CONNECT CONDENSATE DRAIN LINE
Observe all local sanitary codes when installing condensate
drains. Refer to Fig. 3 and 14 for drain pipe connection from
indoor unit.
1. Use hard polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe material with
3
nominal ID of
insulation
/4 in. to connect at drain line. Use pipe
1
/4-in. thick, such as Armaflex insulation,
on exposed piping inside the conditioned space.
2. To ensure regular flow of condensate water, the drain
pipe should be pitched toward an open drain or sump
1
at a downward slope of at least
/4-in. per ft.
Table 4A — Piston and Charge Combinations — Cooling Only Systems
3. Attach plate with screws under piping hole.
4. Attach drain pipe with nylon wire tie passing through
hole (Fig. 15).
NOTE: Do not fasten nylon wire ties tight enough to
deform the insulation, as this affects its performance.
5. Insulate condensate drain line(s) that are located in
or above an occupied area with a condensate-proof
material such as polyurethane or neoprene.
6. Install an external trap at the end of the condensate
line.
NOTE: Should the installation require one, a
condensate pump may be ordered as a field-installed
accessory.
