Alternate Unit Support Methods — Where the

preferred curb or slab mount cannot be used, support unit with sleepers on perimeter, using curb support area. However, if sleepers cannot be used, support long sides of unit (dimension A, Fig. 4) with three 4-in. x 4-in. pads

equally spaced. U nit may sag if supported by corners only.

Positioning — Unit condenser air inlets and outlets

may be located in any compass direction since they are not affected by wind. Provide clearances around and above unit for airflow, safety and service access (Fig 4).

Do not install unit in an indoor location Do not locate air inlets near exhaust vents or other sources of con taminated air

Although unit is weatherproof, guard against water from higher level runoff and overhangs.

A WARNING

Before performing service or maintenance operations on unit, turn off main power switch to unit. Elec trical shock could cause personal injury.
