orifices for heating operation at minimum rating Units may not be derated below this minimum rating
IP
NOTE: Screw holes in vent stack extension and
unit top are positioned to ensure proper orientation
when installed.
Refer to Fig. 4 and install vent cap as follows:
1. Place combustion-air duct over combustion-air
opening in unit top, and line up screw holes in
duct with holes in top. Secure duct to top using
screws with rubber washers (provided).
2. Place gasket and vent stack extension thru hole
in combustion-air duct, orient screw holes in
base of vent stack extension with holes in unit
top, and secure gasket and vent stack extension
to unit top using screws provided.
3. Form flat wire screen (provided) into circular
shape around protruding lip of combustion-air
duct, and bend wire ends thru holes of screen
mesh to secure screen in place. Make sure that
no sharp edges are left exposed.
4. Place vent cap sleeve inside vent stack extension.
Orient spring clip of vent cap with slot in
extension. Be sure that clip snaps into slot to
secure clip onto extension.
Step 2 — Make Gas Piping Connections — The
gas supply pipe enters unit thru access hole pro
vided. See Fig. 1 for location. The gas connection
to unit is made to the 1/2-in. FPT gas inlet on
gas valve.
Install a separate gas supply line that runs
directly from meter to heating section. Do not usecast-iron or galvanized pipe. Check local utility for
recommendations concerning existing lines. Choose
a supply pipe that is large enough to keep pressure
loss as low as practical. Never use pipe .smaller than
the 112-in. FPT gas inlet on gas valve.
When installing gas supply line, observe local
codes pertaining to gas pipe installations. Refer to
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1-1980 in
absence of local building codes. Adhere to pertinent
recommendations.
1. Avoid low spots in long runs of pipe. Grade all
pipe 1 / 4-in. 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. Support all piping with appropriate hangers, etc.
Use a minimum of one hanger in every 6 feet. For
pipe sizes larger than 1/2 in., follow recom
mendations of national codes.
3. Apply joint compounds (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 gases
as specified by local and/ or national codes.
Never use Teflon tape.
4. Install a sediment trap in riser leading to the
heating section. This drip leg functions as a trap
for dirt and condensate. Install trap where con
densate cannot freeze. Install this sediment trap
by connecting a piping tee to riser leading to
heating section so that straight-thru section of
tee is vertical. See Fig. 5. Then, connect capped
nipple into lower end of tee. Extend capped
nipple below level of gas controls.
5. Install an accessible, external, manual shutoff
valve in gas supply pipe within 6 ft of heating
section. Install a 1/8-in. NET plugged tapping
that is accessible for test-gage connection
immediately upstream of gas supply connection
to heating section.
6. Install ground-joint union close to heating
section between gas valve and external manual
shutoff valve.
CAUTION: Unstable operaiion may occur,
particuiarly under htgh-wind conditions^ when
gas valve and manifold assembly are forced out
of piKiltion while connecting improperly routed
rigid gas piping to gas vaive. Use a backup
wrench when making connection to avoid strain
on, or distortion of, gas control piping.
7. Use flexible gas pipe to make connection between
rigid gas piping and gas valve where permitted
by local codes. Flexible pipe ensures proper
alignment between manifold orifices and burner.
WARNING; Never use a match or other open
flame when checking for gas ieaks„
8. Check for gas leaks at all field-insialled and
factory-installed gas lines after all piping connec
tions have been completed. Use soap-and-water
solution (or method specified by local codes
and/or regulations).
Step 3 — Make Duct Connections — Model
48GH/GL has duct flanges on the supply- and
return-air openings on side of unit. See Fig. 1 for
connection sizes and locations.
W'ARNÌNG: The dc-sign and instailation of duct
system must be in accordance with staodardsof
National Fire PTotectson Associatkm for
Instailatiou of nonresidence-type mr condìtioning and ventiiatmg sysieras, NFPA No. 90;
or residence-type, NFP.ÀNo, 90S; and/or local

Adhere to the following criteria when selecting,
sizing, and installing duct system:
1. Select and size ductwork, supply-air registers
and return-air grilles according to Carrier Sys
tem Design Manual, Part 2. System airflow must
he within range of temperature rise and external
static pressure shown on unit AGA rating plate.
CAUTION; When duci-sj'stem fastening boks
are being drilled into side of Model 4M}HfCL
instead of the unit ductnanges, use extreme care
to avoid puncturing coil or coil tubes.
2. Use a flexible transition between rigid ductwork
and unit to prevent transmission of vibration.
The transition may be screwed or bolted to duct
flanges. Use suitable gaskets to ensure a weather
and airtight seal.
3. Install an external, field-supplied air filter(s)
in return-air ductwork where it is easily accessible
for service. Recommended filter sizes are shown
in Table 1.
4. Size all ductwork for maximum required airflow
(either heating or cooling) for unit being in
stalled. Avoid abrupt duct size increases or
decreases.
5. Adequately insulate and weatherproof all duct
work located outdoors. Insulate ducts passing
thru an unconditioned space, and use a vapor
barrier in accordance with latest issue of
SMACNA and NESCA minimum installation
standards for heating and air conditioning
systems. Secure all ducts to building structure.
6. Flash, weatherproof and vibration-isolate all
openings in building structure in accordance
with local codes and good building practices.
Step 4 — Make Wiring Connections
WARNING: Umt cabinet must have an un~
intemipted. unbroken electrical ground to
minimize the possibility of personal injury'
if an electrical fault should occur. Ibis ground
may consist of electrical wire connected to unit
ground lug in control compartment, or conduit
approved for electrical ground when installed in
accordance with National Electrical Code and
local electrical codes. Do not use gas piping
as an electrical ground. A failure to follow this
warning could result in the installer being liable
for the personal injury' of others.
CAUI ION: A failure lo follow' these precau
tions could result in damage to unit being
installed:
1. Make all electrical connections in accordance
with National Electrical Code and local elec
trical codes governing such wiring.
2. Use only copper conductor for connections
between field-supplied electrical disconnect
switch and the unit. Do not use aluminum or
copper-clad aluminum wire.
3. Ensure that high-voltage power to unit is within
operating voltage range indicated on unit rating
plate. On 3-phase units, ensure that phases are
balanced within 2%. Consult the local power
company for correction of improper voltage
and/or phase imbalance.
4. Insulate low-voltage wires for highest voltage
contained within conduit when low-voltage
control wires are run in same conduit as highvoltage wires.
5. Do not damage internal components when
drilling thru any panel to mount electrical
hardware, conduit, etc.
6. Make sure that service conductors used between
the electrical service panel and field-supplied
electrical disconnect switch do not have a current
capacity less than the copper wire specified, and
do not create a total voltage drop in excess of 2%
of rated voltage of the unit.
NOTE: When using aluminum conductor from
electrical service to disconnect switch (where local
codes permit use of aluminum wire), make the
connections in accordance with National Electrical
Code. Prepare all aluminum wire immediately be
fore installation by “brush-scratching” the wire,
then coating the wire with a corrosion inhibitor
(such as Pentrox A). Be sure that entire connection
is completely covered to prevent an electrochemical
reaction that will cause the connection to fail very
quickly. Do not reduce effective size of wire by
cutting off strands to fit wire into a connector.
Always use properly sized connectors.
HIGH-VOLTAGE CONNECTIONS ^ Unit must
have a separate electrical service with a fieldsupplied, waterproof, fused disconnect switch per
NEC mounted at, or within sight from, the unit.
Refer to unit rating plate for maximum fuse size and
minimum circuit amps (ampacity) for wire sizing.
Table 2 shows recommended wire sizes and lengths
based on rating plate data.
The field-supplied disconnect switch box may be
mounted on unit over the high-voltage inlet hole
in control corner panel. See Fig. 1.
WARNING: Label part no, A-74I9ÍB, whickis
shipped loose in bag of parts, must be affixed to
the disconnect switch, box. This iabei states;
