INSTALLATION
The 40QNB high wall fan coil unit is installed with either the 38HDC,HDL condensing or 38HDS multi-split condens­ing outdoor unit, and the 40QNH unit is installed with the 38BK heat pump outdoor unit. Refer to Table1 to make sure the correct indoor unit(s) is installed with the correct out­door unit.
Installation instructions for the 40QN fan coil units are contained in this manual. Refer to this manual for proper installation of the complete system. Note that the 38HDC, HDL, and BK outdoor units are shipped with installation and service instructions for basic installation of the outdoor sec­tion. Be sure to make the modifications in Make Connec­tions to Outdoor Unit section on page 13 of this literature, so that the outdoor unit will operate properly with the 40QN control system. Be sure the unit will be operated within the application guidelines shown in Table 2. When installing the 38HDC, HDL, HDS, or BK unit, note that for cooling op­eration below 55 F (38HDC, HDL, BK), it is necessary to equip the outdoor unit with the low ambient control acces­sory. The low ambient control is standard on 38HDS units.
To install this system, you will need:
• 40QNB or QNH fan coil unit(s)* with standard wireless
remote controller
• 38HDC, HDL, HDS, or BK outdoor unit
• low-ambient (38HDC, HDL, BK) or winter start (38HDS)
kit (if required for your application)
* More than one fan coil unit may be used with the 38HDS
multi-split units. Refer to 38HDS system Price Pages for
full details. NOTE: Refrigerant pipe, drain pipe, wire, etc., are also re-
quired to install unit and are field supplied.
Be sure you have the required parts before beginning in­stallation. The 40QN unit utilizes a microprocessor control system to deliver optimum levels of comfort and efficiency. Be sure to follow these instructions carefully to obtain proper functioning of the unit.
Step 1 — Complete Pre-Installation Checks

Check all items. See Table 3. If any item is missing notify your Carrier distributor. To prevent loss or damage, leave all parts in original packages until installation.
Step 2 — Select Location — Consult local building
codes and NEC for special installation requirements.
There are several ways the unit may be installed to dif­ferent types of wall construction. These instructions do not cover all installation methods. As a typical installation, these instructions focus primarily on mounting the unit to wall studs in new construction. See Fig. 2 for unit dimensions and Fig. 3 for required clearances. Plan your installation care­fully before you begin. Listed below are some guidelines that should be followed when determining location for the unit.
1. Center unit (horizontally) on the wall selected.
2. Place the unit so it faces normal location of room
occupants.
3. Allow sufficient space for airflow clearance, wiring, re-
frigerant piping, and servicing unit. See Fig. 2 and 3.
4. Select walls that are:
a. Strong enough to support weight of the unit. b. Accessible to convenient condensate drainage. c. Free of obstacles that may block air circulation to the
fan coils.
d. Outside walls (if possible) to make piping easier.
5. Place top of fan coil unit as high on the wall as possible
making sure the unit is at least 10 in. down from ceiling to permit proper air intake. Also, make sure that the unit is not placed directly over anything to prevent filter re­moval or block airflow.
6. Make sure units are easily accessible to electrical power.
7. Refrigerantpipingcan enter the unit through the prepunched
holes. Refrigerant piping can run up or down along the wall, to the right or left along the wall, straight through the wall, or into the wall (Fig. 4). Once the piping is through the wall, it can run inside walls, in ceilings, between floors, or straight to the outside. See Fig. 5 for maximum line lengths.
NOTE: Run refrigerant piping as directly as possible, and avoid any unnecessary turns or bends.
8. Condensate piping can be directed through the inside wall
to an approved drain, or directed straight outside. NOTE: The piping hole for condensate line must be made
at a downward slope to ensure proper drainage. See Mount Mounting Bracket on Wall Section on page 5 for details.

1. Dimensions in ( ) are in millimeters.
2. Direction of airflow.
3. Refrigerant, drain, and power connections may be made in unit rear, bottom, left side, or right side.
4. Refrigerant is metered by AccuRater™ device in the fan coil unit on 38HDC, HDL and BK applications. A thermostatic expansion valve is used in the outdoor unit on 38HDS applications. Insulate both refrigerant lines on 38HDS and BK applications.
5. The 49 top and left side clearances are absoluteminimums.Clear­ances of 109 are recommended.
6. Do not insert a trap in condensate drain line. The drain is inter­nally trapped.

4. Temporarily hang unit on bracket to check location and level.
If mounting bracket is not mounted level, the indoor sec­tion will be mounted unevenly, and condensate drain­age water may drip onto the floor. Also, a gap between the bracket and the wall may result in vibration and noise from the indoor section.
5. Mark and cut condensate and piping holes. a. For piping through the wall, mark the wall below the
condensate connection and cut a 2
1
⁄2-in. hole into the
wall at either point ‘‘A’’ or point ‘‘B’’ in Fig. 7.
NOTE: The 2 to ensure proper condensate drainage. See Fig. 8. Slope condensate line at a minimum pitch of
1
⁄2-in hole must be made at a downward slope
1
⁄4in. per foot of line. The condensate line cannot be run up for upper pip­ing connections − only refrigerant lines may be run up.
b. Push the wall sleeve (factory supplied with the unit)
through the 2
1
⁄2-in. wall opening.
Step 4 — Connect Refrigerant Piping — Fan coil
units may be connected to the outdoor units using field­supplied refrigerant grade piping. Refer to Tables 4A-4F 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 long line application guidelines available in the product presale lit­erature, or contact your local representative. For the 38HDS024 unit, the maximum pipe length is 50 ft.
*38HDC, 38BK/38HDL/38HDS systems.
Fig. 5 — Maximum Line Lengths
Step 3 — Mount Mounting Bracket on Wall
1. Decide how refrigerant will be piped. If necessary, knock out the appropriate pre-punched holes (Fig. 4) on unit for piping and electrical connections.
2. Remove bracket from fan coil unit by pulling it down from fan coil unit bottom as shown in Fig. 6.
3. Using a carpenter’s level, fasten mounting brackets into the studs in the wall at least 10 in. away from the ceiling with the 8 screws provided.Always be sure to insert screws into the top 2 holes indicated in Fig. 6. Make sure the attached bracket will support a 200 lb vertical load. For a masonry wall, anchor shields can be used to attach bracket to the wall.
The 40QNB,QNH unit is shipped with a factory hold­ing charge of R-22. 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, refrig­erant may migrate to the cooler, buried section during extended periods of unit shutdown, causing refrigerant slugging and possible compressor damage at start-up.
Use the following instructions to connect piping.
1. Installinsulation.Insulate all refrigerant lines on heat pumps
and 38HDS systems to prevent condensation. It is ex­tremely important that all refrigerant lines and the AccuRatert metering device be insulated on heat pumps. On 38HDC, HDL cooling only units, the liquid line may be left uninsulated. Use any acceptable heat resistant closed­cell foam insulation (minimum
3
⁄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 un-
necessary 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 struc-
ture and the unit to absorb vibrations.
5
NOTE: Use either point ‘‘A’’ or point ‘‘B.’’

Fig. 6 — Bracket Mounting
d. Install factory-supplied flare connection and Accu-
Rater metering device in liquid line at the fan coil unit on 38HDC, HDL and 38BK systems (Fig. 9). Make sure the arrow on the metering device body points AWAY FROM the fan coil unit. Use Table 5 to verify that the correct piston for your system has been shipped with the unit.
NOTE: No AccuRatert device is installed on 38HDS systems. The 38HDS systems have a TXV (thermo­static expansion valve) in the condensing unit for re­frigerant metering and control.
e. On heat pump installations, install factory-supplied pis-
ton in the AccuRater metering device located in the service valve on the outdoor unit (Fig. 10). Make sure Teflon seal on the piston faces toward the outdoor unit. Use Table 5 to verify the correct piston for your sys­tem has been shipped with the unit. Refer to 38BK installation instructions for more details.
f. Install a liquid line filter drier near the outdoor unit
(38HDC, HDL and 38BK). On heat pump systems, a bi-flow filter drier must be used. DO NOT install a fil­ter drier in 38HDS systems.
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.
