Improper installation, adjustment, aheration, service, mainte-
nancQ or use can cause carbon monoxide poisoning, fire, or
an explosion which can result in personal injury or unit
damage. Consuh a qualified installer, service agency, or gas
supplier for information or assistance. The qualified installer
or agency must use only factory-authorized kits or accessories
when modifying this product
Beibre peribrming service or maintenance operations on mail
mrn off gas supply to unit. Then mrn off unit main power
switch and install lockout tag. Elecn'ical shock or explosion
could cause serious inju_ or death.
Recognize safety infbrmation This is the safety-alert symbolz_
When you see this symbol in instructions or manuals, be alert to
the potential _br personal injory.
Understand the signal words DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION,
and NOTE. These words are used with the safcV-alert symboh
DANGER identifies the most serious hazards which will result in
serious injury or death. WARNING signifies a hazard which could
result in serious inju V or death. CAUTION is used to identii_,
unsafe practices which would result in minor personal injury or
product and property damage. NOTE is used to highlight sugges-
tions which will result in enhanced installation, reliability, or
operation.
These instructions cover minimuna requirements and confbrm to
existing national standards and safety codes. In some instances,
these instructions exceed certain local codes and ordinances,
especially those that may not have kept up with changing residen-
tial construction practices. We require these instructions as a
minimum ibr a saf_ installation.
INTRODUCTION
The 48GS and 48GX units (See Fig. 1) are fu!ly self_containe&
combination Category- I gas heating/electric cooling units designed
ibr outdoor installation (See Fig. 2 and 3 for unit dimensions). All
unit sizes have return and discharge openings ibr both horizontal
and downflow configurations, and are ii_ctory shipped with all
downflow duct openings covered. Units may be installed either on
a rooftop, a cement slab, or directly on the ground if local codes
permit (See Fig. 4 for roof curb dimensions).
Models with an N in the fifth position of the model nmnber are
dedicated Low NOxunits designed fbr California installations.
These models meet the California maximum oxides of nitrogen
(NOx) emissions requirements of 40 nanograms joule or less as
shipped from the factory and must be installed in California Air
Quality Management Districts where a Low NO× rule exists.
RECEBVING AND INSTALLATION
Step 1--CHECK EQUIPMENT
IDENTIFY UNIT
The unit model number and serial nunfber are stamped on unit
identification plate. Check this information against shipping papers
and job data. Verit}' unit voltage and amperage requirements listed
on unit rating plate agree with power supply provided to unit
INSPECT SHIPMENT
Inspect for shipping damage while unit is still on shipping pallet.
If unit appears to be damaged or is torn loose t'rom its anchorage,
have it examined by transportation inspectors before removal
Forward claim papers directly to transportation company Manu-
facturer is not responsible for any damage incurred in transit
Check all items against shipping list Immediately notify the
nearest distributor if any item is missing.
To prevent loss or damage, leave all parts in original packages
until installation.
INSTALLATION
1. Remove unit from shipping carton Leave top shipping skid on
the unit as a spreader bar to prevent the rigging straps from
damaging the unit. If the wood skid is not available, use a
spreader bar of sufficient length to protect unit t_-om damage.
2. Position the tiffing bracket assembly around the base of the
unit. Be sure the strap does not twist
3. Place each of the 4 metal lifting brackets into the rigging holds
in the composite pan.
4. Thread liking bracket strapping around bottom perimeter of
unit as follows:
a Open lever of tension buckle (ratchet type)
b. Feed strapping throngh tension buckle as shown in Fig 7A.
c Pull strapping through tension buckle unit taut.
d. Snap lever down to lock strap in tension buckle To release
strapping, squeeze safkty latch, Ilk lever, and pull webbing
outward
5. Tighten the tension buckle until it is taut Lifting brackets
must be secure in the rigging holds
6. Attach field=supplied clevis or hook of sufficient strength to
hole in the liking bracket (See Fig. 7B).
7. Attach the 2 safkty straps directly to the clevis or hook at the
4 rigging brackets. DO NOT attach the safkty straps to the
lifting brackets (See Fig. 7B).
8. Position liking point directly over the unit's center of gravity.
9. Lift unit. When unit is directly over the roof curb, remove the
2 safety straps. Lower the equipment onto the roof curb.
Step 2--PROVIDE UNiT SUPPORT
ROOF CLRB
Install accessory roof curb in accordance with instructions shipped
with curb (See Fig. 4 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 perfbrmance.
Cm:b should be level to within 1/4 in. This is necessa_' for unit
drain to Nnction properly. Refkr to accessory roof curb installation
instructions for additional information as required.
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
compressor end of the unit (to allow condensate &ain installation)
and should extend 2 in. on the three remaining sides of the unit
(See Fig. 6). Do not secure the unit to the slab e:vcept when
required by local codes.

Do not restrict condenser airflow. An air restriction at either
the outdoor-air inlet or the £m discharge can be detrimental to
compressor tiff.
The condenser £m pulls air through the condenser coil and
discharges it through the top cover Be sure that the fan discharge
does not recirculate to the condenser coil Do not locate the unit in
either a comer or under an overhead obstruction. The minin-mm
clearance under a pmlial overhang (such as a nomml house
overhang) is 48-im above the unit top. The nmximnm horizontal
extension of a partial overhang must not exceed 48-in_
Do not place the unit where water, ice, or snow flora an overhang
or roof will damage or flood the unit. Do not install the unit on
carpeting, tile, or other combustible materials. The unit nmy be
installed on wood flooring or on (;lass A, B, or ( roof covering
materials.
Step 5--RIG AND PLACE UNW
When installing the unit on a rooftop, be sure the roof will
support the additional _eight
Use spreader bars or crate top when rigging the uniL The units
must be rigged for lifting (See Fig 6). Refer to Table 1 and 2 for
operating weight. L'xe e:v::'eme ca_ltio_v to prea,e_vt damage whe_

for proper condensate drainage; therefore, the ground°level pad or
accessory roof curb must be level before setting the unit in place.
When a field°fi_bricated support is used, be sure that the support is
level and properly supports the unit. Lifting point should be
directly over the center of gravity for the unit.
Step g--CONNECT CONDENSATE DRAIN
NOTE: When installing condensate &ain connection be sure to
comply with local codes and restrictions.
Models 48GS and 48GX dispose of condensate water through a
3/4 in. NPT fitting which exits through the compressor access
panel (See Fig. 2 and 3 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 fl'om overflowing (See
Fig 8) Prime the trap with water When using a gravel apron,
make sure it slopes away fl'om the unit
If the installation requires draining the condensate water away
from the unit, install a 2=ira trap at the condensate connection to
ensure proper &ainage (See Fig. 8). Make sure that the outlet of
the trap is at least 1 in. lower than the drainpan condensate
connection. This prevents the pan tiom overflowing.
Prime the trap with water. Connect a &ain tube using a mininmna
of 3/4-in. PVC or 3/4-in. copper pipe (all field=supplied) at the
outlet end of the 2=ira trap. Do not undersize the robe. Pitch the

NFPA latest edition (in Canada, (ANiCGA B 14% 1, (2)-M86). In
the absence of local building codes, adhere to the fbltowing
pertinent recommendations:
1. Avoid low spots in long runs of pipe. Grade all pipe 1/4 in. in
ever?" 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 mininmm of one hanger eve N- 6 ft. For
pipe sizes larger d_an 1/2 in., fbltow recommendations 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 gases as
specified by local and/or national codes. :\;ever zz.se 7;e_7ot_

4. Install sediment trap in riser leading to heating section (See
Fig. 9). This &ip leg Nnctions as a trap fbr dirt and
condensate.
5. Install an accessible, external, manual main shutoff valve in
gas supply pipe within 6 ff of heating section.
6. Install groundojoint union close to heating section between
unit manual shutoff and external manual main shut-off valve.
? Pressure-test all gas piping in accordance witla local and
national plumbing and gas codes before connecting piping to
unit,
NOTI::: Pressure test the gas supply system qfter the gas supply
piping is connected to the gas valve. The supply piping must be
disconnected f?om 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 fi'om the gas piping
system by closing the external main manual shutoff valve and
slightly opening the ground-joint union.
Unstable operation may occur when the gas valve and
manifbld assembly are forced out of position while connect-
ing improperlyorouted rigid gas piping to the gas valve. Use
a baclcup wrench when making connection to avoid stlain on,
or distortion of, the gas contIol piping.
If a flexible conductor is required or allowed by the authority
having jurisdictiom black iron pipe shall be installed at the
gas valve and shall extend a nlinirnurn of 2 in. outside the unit
