GENERAL
This Installation and Start-Up Instructions literature is for
Aquazone™ rooftop water source heat pump systems.
Rooftop water source heat pumps (WSHP) are single-package outdoor units with electronic controls designed for yearround cooling and heating.
IMPORTANT: The installation of water source heat pump
units and all associated components, parts, and accessories
which make up the installation shall be in accordance with
the regulations of ALL authorities having jurisdiction and
MUST conform to all applicable codes. It is the responsibility of the installing contractor to determine and comply
with ALL applicable codes and regulations.
INSTALLATION
Step 1 — Check Jobsite —
maintenance instructions are provided with each unit. Before
unit start-up, read all manuals and become familiar with the
unit and its operation. Thoroughly check out the system before
operation. Complete the inspections and instructions listed
below to prepare a unit for installation. See Table 1 for unit
physical data.
Installation, operation and
CAUTION
To avoid equipment damage, do not use these units as a
source of heating or cooling during the construction process. The mechanical components and filters used in these
units quickly becomes clogged with construction dirt and
debris which may cause system damage.
Step 2 — Check Unit — Upon receipt of shipment at
the jobsite, carefully check the shipment against the bill of
lading. Make sure all units have been received. Inspect the carton or crating of each unit, and inspect each unit for damage.
Ensure the shipping company makes proper notation of any
shortages or damage on all copies of the freight bill. Concealed
damage not discovered during unloading must be reported to
the shipping company within 15 days of receipt of shipment.
NOTE: It is the responsibility of the purchaser to file all
necessary claims with the shipping company.
1. Verify unit is correct model for entering water temperature of job.
2. Be sure to provide freeze protection for piping, as required. Well water applications are especially susceptible
to freezing.
3. Be sure the installation location is isolated from sleeping
areas, private offices and other acoustically sensitive
spaces.
4. Check local codes to be sure a secondary drain pan is not
required under the unit.
5. Be sure unit is mounted at a height sufficient to provide
an adequate slope of the condensate lines. If an appropriate slope cannot be achieved, a field-supplied condensate
pump may be required.
6. Provide sufficient space for duct connection.
7. Provide adequate clearance for filter replacement and
drain pan cleaning. Do not allow piping, conduit, etc. to
block filter access.
8. Provide sufficient access to allow maintenance and
servicing of the fan and fan motor, compressor and coils.
9. Provide an unobstructed path to the unit. Space should be
sufficient to allow removal of unit if necessary.
10. Provide ready access to water valves and fittings, and
screwdriver access to unit side panels, discharge collar,
and all electrical connections.
11. Where access to side panels is limited, pre-removal of the
control box side mounting screws may be necessary for
future servicing.
STORAGE — If the equipment is not installed immediately
upon its arrival at the jobsite, it should be left in its shipping
carton and stored in a clean, dry area of the building or in a
warehouse. Units must be stored in an upright position at all
times. If unit stacking is necessary, stack 50RTP03-10 units a
maximum of 2 high. Do not stack units larger than 50RTP10.
Do not remove any equipment from its shipping package until
it is needed.
PROTECTION — Once the units are properly positioned on
the jobsite, they must be covered with either a shipping carton,
vinyl film, or an equivalent protective covering. Open ends of
pipes stored on the jobsite must be capped. This precaution is
especially important in areas where painting, plastering, or
spraying of fireproof material, etc. is not yet complete. Foreign
material that is allowed to accumulate within the units can prevent proper start-up and necessitate costly clean-up operations.
Before installing any of the system components, be sure to
examine each pipe, fitting, and valve, and remove any dirt or
foreign material found in or on these components.

5. Inspect all electrical connections. Be sure connections are
CAUTION
clean and tight at the terminals.
6. Compressors are internally spring-mounted. Compressors
DO NOT store or install units in corrosive environments or
in locations subject to temperature or humidity extremes
(e.g., attics, garages, rooftops, etc.). Corrosive conditions
and high temperature or humidity can significantly reduce
performance, reliability, and service life. Always move
units in an upright position. Tilting units on their sides may
cause equipment damage.
equipped with external spring vibration isolators must
have bolts loosened and shipping clamps removed.
7. Remove any blower support cardboard from inlet of the
blower if present.
8. Locate and verify any accessory kit located in compressor
section.
9. Remove any access panel screws that may be difficult to
INSPECT UNIT — To prepare the unit for installation, complete the procedures listed below:
1. Compare the electrical data on the unit nameplate with
ordering and shipping information to verify that the
correct unit has been shipped.
2. Verify that the unit is the correct model for the entering
water temperature of the job.
3. Do not remove the packaging until the unit is ready for
installation.
4. Verify that the refrigerant tubing is free of kinks or dents,
and that it does not touch other unit components.
remove once unit is installed.
Step 3 — Locate Unit — The following guidelines
should be considered when choosing a location for WSHP. Refer to Fig. 1-3 for unit dimensional data. See Fig. 4 for accessory roof curb dimensional data.
• Provide sufficient space for water, electrical and duct
connections
• Locate unit in an area that allows for easy access and
removal of filter and access panels
• Allow enough space for service personnel to perform
maintenance

units must be mounted on a roof curb as shown in Fig. 5. Roof
curn dimensional data is shown in Fig. 4. Follow these guidelines when installing the roof curb:
1. Set unit on curb.
2. Align unit so that its return and supply air direction match
the return and supply air opening in the roof curb frame.
3. Run both the return and supply loop piping, as well as the
electrical supply line, through the pipe chase provided in
the curb.
Step 5 — Install Condensate Drain
1. Install a condensate trap at each unit with the top of
the trap positioned below the unit condensate drain
connection.
2. Design the length of the trap (water seal) based on the
amount of positive or negative pressure on the drain pan.
As a rule, 1 in. of trap is required for each inch of negative pressure on the unit.
Note that condensate is allowed to drain onto the roof.
Step 6 — Make Piping Connections — Depend-
ing on the application, there are 3 types of WSHP piping systems to choose from: water loop, ground-water and ground
loop. Refer to Piping Section of Carrier System Design Manual
for additional information.
All WSHP units use low temperature soldered female pipe
thread fittings for water connections to prevent annealing and
out-of-round leak problems which are typically associated with
high temperature brazed connections. Refer to Table 1 for connection sizes. When making piping connections, consider the
following:
• Use a backup wrench when making screw connections to
unit to prevent internal damage to piping.
• Insulation may be required on piping to avoid condensa-
tion in the case where fluid in loop piping operates at
temperatures below dew point of adjacent air.
• Piping systems that contain steel pipes or fittings may
be subject to galvanic corrosion. Dielectric fittings may
be used to isolate the steel parts of the system to avoid
galvanic corrosion.
WATER LOOP APPLICATIONS — Water loop applications
usually include a number of units plumbed to a common piping system. Maintenance to any of these units can introduce air
into the piping system. Therefore, air elimination equipment
comprises a major portion of the mechanical room plumbing.
The flow rate is usually set between 2.25 and 3 gpm per ton
of cooling capacity. For proper maintenance and servicing,
pressure-temperature (P/T) ports are necessary for temperature
and flow verification.
In addition to complying with any applicable codes, consider the following for system piping:
• Piping systems utilizing water temperatures below
50 F require
1
/2-in. closed cell insulation on all piping
surfaces to eliminate condensation.
• All plastic to metal threaded fittings should be avoided
due to the potential to leak. Use a flange fitted substitute.
• Teflon tape thread sealant is recommended to minimize
internal fouling of the heat exchanger.
• Use backup wrench. Do not overtighten connections.
• Route piping to avoid service access areas to unit.
• The piping system should be flushed prior to operation to
remove dirt and foreign materials from the system.
GROUND-WATER APPLICATIONS — In addition to complying with any applicable codes, consider the following for
system piping:
• Install shut-off valves for servicing.
• Install pressure-temperature plugs to measure flow and
temperature.
• Boiler drains and other valves should be connected using
a “T” connector to allow acid flushing for the heat
exchanger.
• Do not overtighten connections.
• Route piping to avoid service access areas to unit.
• Use PVC SCH80 or copper piping material.
NOTE: PVC SCH40 should not be used due to system high
pressure and temperature extremes.
Water Supply and Quantity
— Check water supply. Water
supply should be plentiful and of good quality. See Table 2 for
water quality guidelines.
IMPORTANT: Failure to comply with the above required
water quality and quantity limitations and the closedsystem application design requirements may cause damage
to the tube-in-tube heat exchanger that is not the responsibility of the manufacturer.
In all applications, the quality of the water circulated
through the heat exchanger must fall within the ranges listed in
the Water Quality Guidelines table. Consult a local water treatment firm, independent testing facility, or local water authority
for specific recommendations to maintain water quality within
the published limits.
GROUND-LOOP APPLICATIONS — Temperatures between
25 to 110 F and a cooling capacity of 2.25 to 3 gpm of flow per
ton is recommended. In addition to complying with any applicable codes, consider the following for system piping:
• Piping materials should be limited to only polyethylene
fusion in the buried sections of the loop.
• Galvanized or steel fittings should not be used at any
time due to corrosion.
• All plastic to metal threaded fittings should be avoided
due to the potential to leak. Use a flange fitted substitute.
• Do not overtighten connections.
• Route piping to avoid service access areas to unit.
• Pressure-temperature (P/T) plugs should be used to mea-
sure flow of pressure drop.

††If the concentration of these corrosives exceeds the maximum allowable level,
then the potential for serious corrosion problems exists.
Sulfides in the water quickly oxidize when exposed to air, requiring that no agitation occur as the sample is taken. Unless tested immediately at the site, the sample will require stabilization with a few drops of one Molar zinc acetate solution,
allowing accurate sulfide determination up to 24 hours after sampling. A low pH
and high alkalinity cause system problems, even when both values are within
ranges shown. The term pH refers to the acidity, basicity, or neutrality of the water
supply. Below 7.0, the water is considered to be acidic. Above 7.0, water is con-
sidered to be basic. Neutral water contains a pH of 7.0.
NOTE: To convert ppm to grains per gallon, divide by 17. Hardness in mg/l is equivalent to ppm.
If <–0.5 minimize steel pipe use.
Above this level deposition will occur.
Rotten egg smell appears at 0.5 ppm level.
Step 7 — Connect Electrical Wiring
WARNING
Electrical shock can cause personal injury and death. Shut
off all power to this equipment during installation. There
may be more than one disconnect switch. Tag all disconnect locations to alert others not to restore power until work
is completed.
CAUTION
Use only copper conductors for field-installed electrical
wiring. Unit terminals are not designed to accept other
types of conductors.
All field installed wiring, including the electrical ground,
MUST comply with the National Electrical Code (NEC) as
well as applicable local codes. In addition, all field wiring must
conform to the Class II temperature limitations described in the
NEC.
Refer to unit wiring diagrams in Fig. 6-16 for a schematic of
the field connections which must be made by the installing (or
electrical) contractor.
Consult the unit wiring diagram located on the inside of the
compressor access panel to ensure proper electrical hookup.
The installing (or electrical) contractor must make the field
connections when using field-supplied disconnect.
Operating voltage must be the same voltage and phase as
shown in electrical data shown in Table 3.
Make all final electrical connections with a length of flexible conduit to minimize vibration and sound transmission to
the building.
SUPPLY VOLTAGE — Operating voltage to unit must be
within voltage range indicated on unit nameplate.
On 3-phase units, voltages under load between phases must
be balanced within 2%. Use the following formula to determine the percentage voltage imbalance:
% Voltage Imbalance

Determine maximum deviation from average voltage:
(AB) 457 – 452 = 5 v
(BC) 464 – 457 = 7 v
(AC) 457 – 455 = 2 v
Maximum deviation is 7 v.
Determine percent voltage imbalance.
% Voltage Imbalance = 100 x

457
= 1.53%
This amount of phase imbalance is satisfactory as it is
below the maximum allowable 2%.
Operation on improper line voltage or excessive phase
imbalance constitutes abuse and may cause damage to electrical components.
NOTE: If more than 2% voltage imbalance is present, contact
local electric utility.
208-VOLT OPERATION — All 208-230 volt units are factory
wired for 208 volts. The transformers may be switched to
230-volt operation (as illustrated on the wiring diagram) by
switching the red (208 volt) wire with the orange (230 volt)
wire at the L1 terminal.
BLOWER SELECTION — All water source heat pumps are
factory set with the appropriate motor and sheave combination
to achieve the desired airflow performance. Performance is
selected by matching the desired performance with the appropriate region in Tables 4-12.
NOTE: Factory-installed sheaves are field adjustable. Refer to
Tables 4-12 for adjustment points.
