PRE-INSTALLATION
Unpack and Inspect Units —
from all units. Check the shipment against shipping order.
Make sure that furnished only items, such as thermostat,
grilles, etc., are accounted for, whether packaged separately or
shipped at a later date. If shipment is damaged or incomplete,
file claim with transportation company and advise Carrier immediately.
Remove shipping wraps
Protect Units from Damage — The equipment must
always be properly supported. Temporary supports used during
installation or service must be adequate to hold the equipment
securely. Equipment should always be stored in the proper orientation as marked on the carton. To maintain warranty, protect
units against adverse weather, theft, vandalism, and debris on
jobsite. Equipment covered in this manual is not suitable for
outdoor installations. Do not allow foreign material to fall into
drain pan. Prevent dust and debris from being deposited on motor and fan wheels. Manufacturer's warranty is void if foreign
material is allowed to be deposited on the motor or blower
wheels of any unit.
Prepare Jobsite for Unit Installation — To sav e
time and to reduce the possibility of costly errors, set up a complete sample installation in a typical room at jobsite. Check all
critical dimensions such as pipe, wire, and duct connection
requirements. Refer to job drawings and product dimension
drawings as required (see Fig. 1-36). Instruct all trades in their
part of the installation.
Identify and Prepare Units — Be sure power require-
ments match available power source. Refer to unit nameplate
and wiring diagram.
1. Check all tags on unit to determine if shipping screws are
to be removed. Remove screws as directed.

riser tier number, floor, room number if furnished and supplyair arrangement. Check unit for any other labels that apply to
installation. Remove unit from pallet and take directly to
assigned space for installation. Great care must be taken to
assure that no force or pressure be applied to the coil, risers or
piping during handling. Never use the riser to lift the unit. To
maintain the straight and square cabinet alignment, avoid lifting or supporting the cabinet only at the top and bottom.
1. Begin on lowest floor and progress upward, floor by
floor, to top.
2. Examine drain line (Fig. 28-34). Be sure both ends are in
place and that it forms a trap. Avoid pinching drain line.
3. Tip unit over riser hole in building floor. As unit is
righted, align riser with unit below.
NOTE: The unit must be lowered into the space taking
care to properly align the risers to engage the riser swaged
section on the unit below. The riser should never be bent
or pushed together to be passed through the floor slot and
should never be lifted up or pulled down to meet the riser
on the floor below or above.
4. Install isolator pads beneath the four corners of unit if
applicable.
5. Before anchoring the equipment in place, the unit must be
leveled and the cabinet must be squared and brought into
line with any adjacent or included walls. The unit may be
anchored in place by bolting directly through the unit
floor or attaching to the cabinet in some location that will
not interfere with drywall or other items such as the supply grille, thermostat, or return access panel. When attaching to the unit cabinet, care must be taken to not penetrate the cabinet in locations that may damage internal
components or wiring. The mounting technique is a matter of choice; however, the unit should always be anchored securely to prevent movement during construction
and riser expansion and contraction. On certain units,
shipping screws or braces must be removed after the unit
is installed. Be sure to check all tags on the unit to determine which, if any, of these devices need to be removed.
6. If installing a 42SJ unit, follow Steps a-h. For all other
42S units, continue to Step 7.
NOTE: The 42SJ back-to-back fan coils have been designed to serve two separate rooms. These products are
classified by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. for use in
penetration firestop systems, control number 27WL when
ordered with 1-hr rated chase. See UL Fire Resistance
Directory for more information. Figure 37 shows the
42SJ unit with standard risers and with Siamese risers.
a. Lay out the control lines for the drywall track and
studs in the floor and ceiling (see Fig. 38).
NOTE: Tracking may be installed now or after the
unit is set.
b. Position the 42SJ fan coil assembly between two
rooms with the unit drywall separation spotted
over the wall control lines.
c. If not already installed, install the floor and ceiling
tracks up to and over the 42SJ fan coil unit.
d. Position the vertical studs and fasten into each of
the stud pockets formed into the chase side panels
(see Fig. 38).
NOTE: The studs may be mechanically fastened
to the 42SJ fan coil. Care should be taken, however, not to penetrate the supply or return water
risers or internal piping. Given the levelness of the
floor and/or the fan coil assembly, some shimming
may be necessary.
e. Assemble the specified wall construction up to
and over the top of the fan coil unit (see Fig. 39).
f.With the fire-wall separation being complete, the
drywall skin on the surface of the individual fan
coils can be applied. Drywall can be applied
directly to the surface, or, if necessary, studding
may be installed on the corners for vertical control
(see Fig. 39).
g. For ease of installation of the access panel, apply
drywall on the return air side directly to the surface of the unit (see Fig. 39). When applying the
wall board directly to the unit cabinet, it may be
necessary to shim the wall board in some areas to
achieve the desired finished wall surface.

7. Attach unit risers:
CAUTION
Toxic residues and loose particles resulting from manufacturing and field piping techniques such as joint compounds,
soldering flux, and metal shavings may be present in the
unit and the piping system. Special consideration must be
given to system cleanliness when connecting to solar,
domestic or portable water systems. Failure to heed this
warning could result in equipment damage.
NOTE: The supply and return connections are marked on
the coil stub-outs and the valve package with an “S”
meaning supply or inlet and “R” meaning return or outlet
indicating flow direction to and from the coil. Blue letters
mark the chilled water connections and red letters mark
the hot water connections.
a. Each riser has a 3-in. swaged portion at top and
sufficient extension at bottom for an inserted
length of approximately 2-in. This unit-to-unit
joint is NOT intended for full bottoming in the
joint, but allows for variations in floor-to-floor
dimensions and for correct riser positioning.
If job requires that unit risers be supplemented
with between-the-floor extensions pieces may be
field-supplied or factory-supplied. If factorysupplied, insulation is also provided.
b. Level unit to ensure proper coil operation and
condensate drainage. Proper riser installation and
vertical positioning in the unit provides for a unit
piping run-out to the service valves which are centered in the access slots and level or sloping down
slightly away from the riser. This prevents condensation from running back to the riser and possible damage from dripping at the bottom of a
riser column. After units are positioned and riser
centered in pipe chase, make unit plumb in two
directions, using unit frame as a reference.
c. Anchor unit to building. Use bolts or lag screws
through holes provided in unit frame.
d. After all units in a stack are anchored, make unit-
to-unit riser joints. First, center each coil-to-riser
line within the expansion slot in the unit back
panel. Each riser joint must be in vertical
alignment with at least 1-in. penetration into the
swaged joint. This condition is met if floor-tofloor dimension is as specified and coil-to-riser
lines are properly centered. Wide variations in
floor-to-floor dimensions may necessitate cutting
off or extending individual risers. Such modifications are the full responsibility of the installing
contractor.
e. Before making the riser joints, the riser insulation
must be pulled back away from the joint and protected from heat during the soldering process. Solder riser joints with phos-copper, silfos, or other
high temperature alloy. The riser joint filler material must be selected to withstand the total operating pressure (both static and pumping head) to
which the system will be subjected. Soft solder
(50-50, 60-40, or 85-15) or other low temperature
lead alloy is not suitable for this application.
IMPORTANT: Chilled water and hot water risers should
never be piped to drain down into the condensate riser.
Extensive water damage can occur due to drain overflow. Drain chilled and hot water risers to a remote location away from the unit such as sink, room and floor
drains.
8. Anchor risers as required:
a. Do not fasten risers rigidly within each unit.
Risers must be free to move within pipe chase
in response to normal vertical expansion and
contraction.
b. Built in risers must be anchored at some point
to building structure. Unit design accommodates
1
up to 1
/2-in. expansion and contraction in riser
assemblies when positioned properly at the job
site. Risers must be anchored to the building structure to limit expansion and contraction movement
1
to a maximum of 1
/2-inches. Riser anchoring and
expansion compensation is not included in the factory-supplied unit and must be provided.
9. Test the system for leaks after the connections are com-
pleted. When testing with air or some other gas, it might
be necessary to tighten stem packing nuts on some valves
to maintain air pressure in the riser. Pressure testing risers
with water should be done with the unit service valves
closed to prevent flushing debris into the unit valve packages. This will also allow risers to be drained down after
testing in the winter to avoid freeze-up problems.
10. After system integrity has been established, pull the riser
insulation back into place over the joint and glue or seal
to prevent sweating and heat loss or gain. Internal chilled
water piping and valves are located over the drain pan
and need not be insulated.
11. If required, fireproof were necessary. Any fireproofing requirements where risers or piping penetrate floors or
walls are the responsibility of the installer. This work
should be done only after all pressure testing is completed. The fireproofing method used must accommodate
pipe expansion and contraction and the piping must be
protected from abrasion and chemical attack. The pipe insulation also must be maintained to prevent sweating and
must be protected from wear or erosion at the joint between the insulation and the fireproofing material.
Step 2 — Make Piping Connections — Access to
piping is available through the access panels at the side of the
units or front of the unit. Qualified personnel in accordance
with local and national codes must perform all piping connections. Refer to Tables 1-4 for piping connections.
NOTE: It is important to have a common understanding of
which side of the unit is the right hand side and which is the
left hand side.
When facing the supply air outlet from the front of the unit
(air blowing in your face), your right hand will be on the right
side of the unit and your left hand will be on the left side of the
unit. See Fig. 40. Refer to Fig. 41 and 42 for typical piping
connections.
The supply and return piping connections of the factoryprovided valve package are either swaged for field brazing
(standard) or union fitted (optional) for field connection to the
coil.

Consult factory before ordering any special valve package
components that are not covered in this book.
Valve packages are shipped with the units or in unit cartons.
Valve packages include belled ends for field soldering to coil
connections.
All factory-furnished cooling valve packages are arranged
to position as much of the package as possible over an auxiliary
drain pan or drip lip. This helps minimize field piping insulation requirements. Refer to Fig. 44-47 for pipe connection
configurations. See Table 5 for descriptions of common piping

Coil Connections (Positions A & B) — When isolation valve only is added to supply or return line, the isolation valve will
be factory brazed to the coil stub-out. Addition of any other component or connection to the supply or return line will change
the respective coil connection(s).
Service Fittings (Positions C & D) — Optional fittings for attaching pressure/temperature sensing devices to obtain pressure drop or temperature differential across coil. Used with ball valve or balance valve where extremely accurate water flow
balancing is required.
Water Flow Balancing (Positions E, F, & H) — Only one device per total valve package to be used for balancing water
flow through the coil. When isolation valve (ball valve or ball valve with memory stop at position H) is used for water flow balancing, do not specify additional balancing device at position E or F. When balancing device is specified at position E or F,
isolation valve does not require balancing feature at position H (with a 3-way motorized valve, a bypass balancing valve
may be specified in the bypass line to permit equal flow balancing).
Strainer (Position G) — Does not include blow down fitting and should not be used in lieu of main piping strainers.
Isolation Valves (Positions H & J) — Normally requires one each on supply and return line (see exception under circuit
setter). When position H is used for balancing (ball valve or ball valve with memory stop), check specifications for service
valve requirements.

accordance with all applicable codes. A continuous pitch of
1 in. per 10 ft of condensate drain line run is necessary for
adequate condensate drainage. Insulate the drain line to
prevent sweating. Extend the drain line straight from the drain
pan before making any turns. The installer must provide proper
support for the drain line to prevent undue stress on the
auxiliary drain pan.
Install trapped drain line in accordance with all applicable
codes (see Fig. 48). A drain trap may be required by local
codes and is recommended for odor control. The differential
height inlet to outlet must be at least 1-in. wg greater than the
total static pressure of the unit. The differential height of the
outlet to the bottom of the trap must not be less than the total
static pressure of the unit.
Provide a trap of at least 2-in. near the end of the drain line
to prevent odors from entering the rooms.
42C,D,V WATER SUPPLY/RETURN CONNECTIONS —
Install piping in accordance with all applicable codes. Position
valves over the drain pan. Be sure valves are in proper operating position and are easily accessible for adjustment. See
Fig. 44-47. Refer to Fig. 49 for copper water tube and joint
material pressure ratings.
If coil and valve package connections will be made with a
solder joint, care should be taken to ensure that the components
in the valve package are not subjected to high temperatures,
which may damage seals or other materials. Many 2-position
electric control valves are provided with a manual operating
lever. This lever should be in the OPEN position during all
soldering operations.
If coil connection is made with a union, the coil side of the
union must be prevented from turning (it must be backed up)
during tightening. See Fig. 44-47 for common valve packages.
CAUTION
NOTE: The project specifications for system pressure, pressure drop limitations, and flow rate should be checked prior to
selection of specific components or the valve package size.
42C,D,V STEAM CONNECTIONS — On units with steam
heating coils, the maximum steam pressure applied to the unit
should never exceed 10 psig. However, when steam is used on
a 4-pipe application system with 1-row and 2-row coils the
maximum steam pressure should never exceed 5 psig (suitable
for only low pressure steam).
Do not drain the steam mains or take-off through the coils.
Drain the mains ahead of the coils through a steam trap to the
return line. Overhead returns require 1 psig of pressure at the
steam trap discharge for each 2 ft elevation to ensure continuous condensate removal.
Proper steam trap selection and installation is necessary. As a
guideline in creating a steam trap locate the steam trap discharge at least 12 in. below the condensate return connection.
This provides sufficient hydrostatic head pressure to overcome
trap losses and ensure complete condensate removal.
42C,D,V DIRECT EXPANSION (DX) REFRIGERANT
PIPING — Use the condensing unit manufacturer's recommended line sizes and requirements. Suction line must be
insulated for correct operation. Use refrigerant-grade copper
lines only. The unit is not applied as a heat pump.
Thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) and sensing bulb are
factory-installed on units when DX coil option is chosen with
distributor and TXV.
NOTE: If a hot water coil is used in the reheat position, a fieldsupplied freezestat must be installed to protect the coil.
TEST AND INSULATE — When all joints are complete,
perform hydrostatic test for leaks. Vent all coils at this time.
Check interior unit piping for signs of leakage from shipping
damage or mishandling. If leaks are found, notify a Carrier
representative before initiating any repairs. Release trapped air
from system (refer to Make Final Preparations section).
Never pressurize any equipment beyond specific test pressure. Always pressure test with an inert fluid or gas, such as
clear water or dry nitrogen to avoid possible damage or injury
in the event of a leak or component failure during testing.
CAUTION
All water coils must be protected from freezing after initial
filling with water. Even if system is drained, unit coils may
still have enough water to cause damage when exposed to
temperatures below freezing.
Following the hydrostatic test, insulate all piping to prevent
sweating.
To ensure compliance with building codes, restore the structure's original fire resistance rating by sealing all holes with
material carrying the same fire rating as the structure.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN! Overtightening will distort
(egg shape) the union seal surface and destroy the union.

to unit nameplate for required supply voltage, fan and heater
amperage and required circuit ampacity. Refer to unit wire diagram for unit and field wiring. Make sure all electrical connections are in accordance with unit wiring diagram and all applicable codes.
The fan motor(s) should never be controlled by any wiring
or device other than the factory-supplied switch or thermostat/
switch combination unless prior factory authorization is
obtained. Fan motor(s) may be temporarily wired for use
during construction only with prior factory approval and only
in strict accordance with the instructions issued at that time.
Floor cabinet type units have factory-wired integral fan
switches. Connect power wires to leads in unit junction box per
unit wiring diagram. On the other units, install remote fan
switch according to job drawings. Hook up switch and power
wiring per unit wiring diagram.
Install optional, wall-mounted thermostat per instructions
shipped with thermostat. Connect as shown on unit wiring
diagram.
Units with factory-supplied and factory-installed aquastats
may be shipped with the aquastats mounted on a coil stub-out.
If this is the case, remove the aquastat before installing valve
package. When reinstalling aquastats, consult the factorypiping diagram in the submittal for proper location. If the valve
package is field-supplied, the aquastat must be installed in a
location where it will sense the water temperature regardless of
the control valve position. A bleed bypass may be required to
guarantee proper aquastat operation. The aquastat bypass line
allows a small amount of water to flow from the supply to the
return piping when the control valve is closed.
NOTE: The aquastat must be able to sense whether the
flowing water is being chilled or heated and switches a contact
closed to provide automatic summer or winter changeover for
the system. When a two-pipe cooling/heating system with
optional auxiliary electric heat is desired, an additional
aquastat is required.
All field wiring must be in accordance with governing
codes and ordinances. Any modification of unit wiring without
factory authorization will invalidate all factory warranties and
nullify any agency listings.
IMPORTANT: Wiring diagrams shown depict typical
control functions. Refer to unit wiring label for specific
functions.
Units may be equipped with line voltage controls or
24 VAC control systems. The following descriptions are for
line voltage controls only. For 24 v control operating sequence,
refer to thermostat operating instructions.

hermostatic Fan Control, 2-Pipe Systems — The thermostat cycles the fan on and off from any selected speed setting to
maintain selected room temperature. Controls can be wired for
heating-only, cooling-only or for heating/cooling by the addition of an automatic changeover device that senses water temperature and changes the action of the thermostat as required.
See Fig. 51.
T
hermostatic Fan Control, 2-Pipe System with Safety
Cycle — This control is used for high humidity situations in
which condensate problems can occur if fan is turned off while
chilled water is still running through the coil.
The wiring provides fan cycling from HIGH to LOW on the
cooling cycle and from LOW to OFF on the heating cycle. An
ON-OFF toggle switch replaces the standard 3-speed fan
switch. The toggle switch can be concealed to ensure that the
unit runs on low speed when cooling. This action greatly
reduces the chance of condensation problems that exist with
other standard fan cycling controls. See Fig. 52.
T
hermostatic Electric Valve Control, 2-Pipe — A thermostatically controlled 2-position valve provides superior control
to fan cycling. With this control, the fan runs continuously unless it is manually switched to the OFF position. The fan must
be on before the valve can be opened to supply water to the
coil.
This system can be used for normal 2-pipe changeover
systems and can also be furnished for cooling-only or heatingonly applications by omitting the changeover and specifying
which application is intended. See Fig. 53 and 54 for line voltage control. See Fig. 55 and 56 for 24-v control.

hermostatic 2-Pipe Auxiliary Electric Heat with Valve
Control — This system, also called twilight or intermediate
season electric heat, goes a long way towards solving the
spring and fall control problems of 2-pipe systems.
Chilled water can be run late into the fall, turned on early in
the spring and heat will still be available to all units whenever
required.
In winter the system is switched over to hot water. Two
changeover devices are required for this. One device switches
the action of the thermostat and the other locks out the electric
heat when hot water is in the coil.
With this system, the fan runs continuously unless manually
switched to OFF position. Fan must be on before thermostat
can send signal to open chilled water valve or turn on electric
heater.
Two control methods are available:
1. Use the standard automatic changeover thermostat with a
dead band between heating and cooling.
2. Use a manual changeover thermostat. With this method
only one changeover is required.
Be sure to include a 2-way or 3-way electric valve with this
system.

trol — With this system, the complete heating requirement for
the space is provided by the electric heater; the water system is
never changed over for heating. It is therefore possible, just as
with 4-pipe systems, to have heating or cooling at any time of
the year.
The fan runs continuously unless it is manually switched to
OFF position. Fan must be on before thermostat can send
signal to open chilled water valve or turn on electric heater.
Normally, an automatic changeover thermostat with a dead
band between heating and cooling is used, but a manual
changeover thermostat is also suitable. A 2-way or 3-way valve
must also be used so that the chilled water is off whenever the
heater is on. No changeover device to sense water temperature
is necessary.

Step 4 — Make Duct Connections — Install all
ductwork to and from unit in accordance with all applicable
codes. Duct construction must allow unit to operate within duct
external static pressure limits as shown on job submittals. Units
designed to operate with ductwork may be damaged if operated
without intended ductwork attached.
Units provided with outside air should have some method
of low-temperature protection to prevent freeze-up.
Insulate ductwork as required. Use flexible connections to
minimize duct-to-unit alignment problems and noise transmission where specified.
Set unit markings for minimum clearance to combustible
materials and first 3 ft of ductwork. Install ductwork, accessory
grilles and plenums so that they do not restrict access to filter.
Cut openings for supply-air and return-air grilles, thermostats
and switch plates where specified on job drawings. Be careful
not to cut wires, piping or structural supports. Use a steel thermostat shield ring to protect drywall from thermostat wiring
where applicable.
Do not secure wallboard to drain pan edges or to control
box enclosure. Condensate leaks or electrical shorts may result.
An alternate method of enclosing the unit is to frame one or
more sides with studding and apply the wall board to this framing. This method requires specific unit features and return access panels when used on the return-air side of a unit. Units not
properly equipped will exhibit poor cooling and/or heating performance and could experience excessive or premature component failures.
Prevent sheetrock dust or other debris from settling on coil
fins, motor-blower assembly or other unit interior surfaces.
Return access and exposed cabinet units may be furnished
with a baked enamel finish. Small scratches in this finish may
be repaired with touch-up paint available from the factory.
Some colors of touch-up paint are available in aerosol containers and all touch-up paint is available in pint, quart, and gallon
cans.
To repaint the factory-baked enamel, the finish should be
prepared by light sanding with no. 280 grit sand paper or
no. 000 or no. 0000 fine steel wool. The surface may also be

or color is to be spray applied, cover all openings to prevent spray from entering unit. Failure to do so could result
in the reduction of unit efficiency.
Step 5 — Frame and Finish Unit — Models 42SG,
SH and SJ have factory enclosures and may be finished with
normally accepted wall covering. However, drywall secured
with adhesive bonding alone is not recommended.
Use low-profile sheet metal panhead screws to secure
wallboard to unit frame.
Do not apply sheet metal screw or nails where they can pen-

wiped with a liquid surface etch cleaning product such as “No
Sand” or “Pasceo.” These items should be available at most
paint product stores. It should be noted that the more conscientiously this preparation is done, the more effective it will be.
After this preparation is accomplished, the factory finish
should provide excellent adhesion for a variety of air-dried top
coats. Enamel will give a more durable, higher gloss finish,
while latex will not adhere as well and will give a dull, softer
finish. Top coats involving an exothermic chemical process between two components, such as epoxies and urethanes, should
be avoided.

cut wires, piping or structural supports.
For remote-mounted thermostats use a steel thermostat
shield ring to protect drywall from thermostat wiring where
applicable.
Prevent dirt, dust, and debris from settling in unit. If wall
finish or color is to be spray applied, cover all openings to
prevent overspray entering unit.
On all units with optional supply-air or
Step 7 — Make Final Preparations
1. Turn off power to the unit (open unit electrical disconnect).
2. Install thermostats and perform any other final wiring as
applicable.
3. Clean dirt, dust, and other construction debris from unit
interior. Be sure to check fan wheel and housing.
4. Rotate fan wheel by hand to be sure it is free and does not
rub housing. Check that wing nuts securing fan assembly
to fan deck are tight.
5. Ensure all panels and filters are installed before checking
fan operation. Turn on power to the unit.
6. Install filter in frame at front of coil. If field-supplied
filters are used, be sure size is as specified in Tables 1-4.
IMPORTANT: Do not start up or operate unit without
filter. Be sure filter and unit interior are clean.
7. Check the fan and motor operation. The fan switch is
located in a switch box behind spring-loaded access door
on unit cabinet or is wall-mounted. Speeds are marked on
switch plate as follows:
OFF
H - High Speed
M - Medium Speed
L - Low Speed
Rotate knob clockwise to desired speed. To turn off,
rotate knob counterclockwise to OFF.
8. Be sure drain line is properly and securely positioned and
that the line is clear. Pour water into drain to check
operation.
9. Vent all air from unit coil and related piping. If air vent is
manual, release air from system by turning air vent
screw 1
When steady steam of water begins to escape, close
valve. If air vent is automatic, trapped air will be vented
automatically. Vent release air slowly, usually dripping
water into drain pan in the process.
Make sure all service valves are open and that the motorized control valves, if supplied, are set for automatic
operation.
10. Check all control valves in the system for proper operation in accordance with valve manufacturer's instructions.
11. For units with factory-installed balancing valves, adjust
as follows:

to body, flow through valve is at minimum. Valve
does not seal against flow.
action is similar to butterfly valves above except
that when handle is perpendicular to valve body,
there is no flow through valve. Ball valves may be
used as shutoff valves.
START-UP
Start-up procedures vary depending on time of year (summer or winter) and building characteristics (new building/old
building, occupied/unoccupied, etc.)
Start-up in the cooling mode requires that proper care be
given to avoid condensation problems. Condensation forms on
surfaces that are colder than the dew point of the surrounding
air. If a unit is started and is piped with low-temperature chilled
water in a hot, humid atmosphere, condensation will form on
many parts of the unit. In order to avoid excessive condensation, higher temperature water should initially be used (approximately 65 to 70 F) and set the fan coil control at low or medium fan speed. Be sure the fan current does not exceed motor
nameplate values. Also, the building should be as completely
closed as possible and outside air supply fans, and bathroom
and kitchen exhaust fans should be off.
As the building temperature drops, the chilled water temperature can be gradually reduced until it reaches 50 F. At this
point the outside air fans can be turned on. When the chilled
water temperature is reduced to its design point, the exhaust
fans can be turned on.
SERVICE
Excessive Condensation on Unit —
water through a fan coil unit with the unit fan off can cause
excessive condensation. If fan cycling is used, a water flow
control valve should be installed to shutoff the water when the
fan stops.
Other methods of control, which avoids condensation problems, are as follows:
1. Continuous fan operation with motorized chilled water
valve controlled by a thermostat.
2. Continuous fan operation with thermostat control to
switch fan from high to low speed (instead of off).
Running chilled
To Clean Coil
1. Be sure electrical service switch is open, locked, and
tagged while working on unit.
2. Remove return-air grille access panel and brush between
coil fins with stiff wire brush. Follow-up by cleaning with
vacuum cleaner. If coil is cleaned with air hose and
nozzle, take care not to drive dirt and dust into other
components.
3. Install clean filter. Refer to Clean or Replace Air Filters
section.
Coil Air Vent (Manual or Automatic) — Turn vent
cap clockwise (closed) while filling system; turn counterclockwise (open) to vent air. Tighten clockwise after venting. Turn
automatic vent cap slightly counterclockwise until water leaks
at about 10 drops per minute. Leak will stop within one-half
minute.
Check Drain — Lock open and tag unit electrical service
switch.
Check drain pan, drain line and trap at start of each cooling
season. A standard type pipe cleaner for
used to ensure that pipe is clear of obstruction so that condensate is carried away. Check the drain line at filter cleaning time
during the cooling season. Be sure that debris has not fallen

Clean Fan Wheel — Lock open and tag unit electrical
service switch.
For access to fan assembly, remove front or bottom panel.
Fan assembly may be removed from its tracks if unit has a long
conduit lead. Use a stiff brush or vacuum to remove dirt and
debris from scroll. Wipe all fan surfaces with a damp cloth.
Clean Electric Heater — Lock open and tag unit elec-
trical service switch.
1. Remove dust, dirt, or foreign material before start-up. Do
not block normal airflow to and from units; blockage may
damage electric heaters.
2. Clean heater elements with soft brush or vacuum cleaner
as necessary.
3. To replace blown fusible links (nichrome heaters only):
a. Remove fan deck (horizontal units only) for
access to heater.
b. Remove nut securing link at each end; install new
link; reinstall nuts.
c. Reinstall fan deck (if removed).
Electric resistance heaters typically require no normal periodic maintenance when unit air filters are changed properly.
The operation and service life may be affected by other conditions and equipment in the system. The two most important operating conditions for an electric heater are proper airflow and
proper supply voltage. High supply voltage and/or poorly distributed or insufficient airflow over the element will result in
element overheating. This condition may result in the heater
cycling on the high-limit thermal cutout. The high-limit thermal cutout device is a safety device only and is not intended for
continuous operation. With proper unit application and operation, the high-limit thermal cutout will not operate. This device
only operates when a problem exists, and ANY condition that
causes high-limit cutout MUST be corrected immediately.
High supply voltage also causes excessive amperage draw and
may trip the circuit breaker or blow the fuses on the incoming
power supply.
After proper airflow and supply power are assured, regular
filter maintenance is important to provide clean air over the
heater. Dirt that is allowed to deposit on the heating element
will cause hot spots and eventual element burn through. These
hot spots will normally not be enough to trip the high-limit
thermal cutout device and may not be evident until actual heater element failure.
Clean or Replace Air Filters — Lock open and tag
unit electrical service switch.
At the start of each cooling season and after each month of
operation (more or less depending on operating conditions) replace throwaway filter or clean permanent filter.
THROWAWAY FILTER — Replace filter with a good quality filter of the size shown in Tables 1-4. Do not attempt to
clean and reuse disposable filters.
PERMANENT FILTER (FIBERGLASS TYPE)
1. Tap on solid surface to dislodge heavy particles.
2. Wash in hot water. If needed, use mild solution of commercial solvent such as sal soda or trisodium phosphate.
3. Set filter on end so that water drains out through slots in
frame. Allow filter to dry thoroughly.
4. Recharge filter with Film-Cor or similar recharging oil.
Three ounces is sufficient for medium size filter. Oil may
be applied by insect spray gun. For easier spraying, the oil
can be warmed.
If the filter is dipped in the recharging oil, remove it immediately and allow draining through slots in frame.
5. Replace filter in unit.
If another type of filter is used, follow the filter manufacturer's
instructions.
Warranty — All equipment and components sold through
the Parts Department are warranted under the same conditions
as the standard manufacturer's warranty with the exception that
the warranty period is thirty (30) days unless the component is
