Application and Installation
Installation Guidelines
• Chassis is to be installed against an exterior wall. Wall
cutout dimensions will be 24 5/8" w x 30 7/8" h.
• Clos et sho uld al low for a mini mum of thre e inch es on th ree
sides of the unit for return air, drain connections and change
outs.
• Minimum recommended access door rough-in measure-
ments 27" wide by 55
3
/4" high (for VPRG4/VPRG4R).
• Friedrich recommends the use of a platform between 24"
an d 36" above the oo r, for ea se of in stal l ati on and ser vice -
ability.
• Duct outlet designed for external static pressures up to .3"
on 9,000, 12,000, and 18,000 Btu models; and .4" on 24,000
Btu models.
• Wall plenum allows chassis to be inserted 2
3
/8" into
plenum, thereby minimizing closet dimensions.
• Quick connect drain coupling ships standard to make
installation and removal easier.
Application and Accessories (All models)
• The use of a Friedrich wall plenum is required for installation. Plenum opening is 3/4" above the oor for 9,000 &
12,000 models, and 11/2" for 18,000 & 24,000 Btu models.
(V PAW P1-8 / VPAWP1-14).
• Return air is accommodated with a return air lter attached
to the unit or through the use of a return air lter grille.
(VPRG4/ VPRG4R).
• Exterior louvers are available in anodized aluminum (VPAL2)
or in custom painted colors (VPSC2).
• Unit is controlled by a remote wall-mounted thermostat.
Fr i edric h mod el W R T1 w i rele s s digi tal th ermos t at, RT6 wi red
digital thermostat, RT6P wired programmable thermostat,
or EMRT1/EMWRT1 Energy Management Stats are recommended.
• Central desk control ready.
Typical Closet Arrangement
Cutaway of a typical closet shown with Vert-I-Pak® chassis
installed in the wall sleeve. The unit has the thermostat, eld
wiring, internal drain and ex duct attached. VPRG4 return air
lter holder and access panel are shown below.
The closet access panel may be instal led in the fr ont (as sh own
below) or to the left or right side of th e un it. Al l thr ee in stal l ati on
options will allow easy access to the unit for removal and
replacement.
Application and Accessories (24K Models only)
• 18K and 24K utilize drain pan (VPDP1) that can be installed
prior to chassis for simplied installation and removal.
• 18K and 24K utilize the same wall plenum as other units to
give consistent exterior appearance. VHA24 plenum must
be installed 1

tection consisting of hydrophilic-coated ns to prolong the life of
the coil in all applications including seacoast protection.
ACCE SSORY ACCE SS PANEL - An optional factor y-supplied access
panel shall be available to provide access to the unit and adequate
return air. The panel shall feature a lter holder to accept a eld
supplied 25” x 20” x 1” lter. Kit shall contain a hinge bracket for
mounting the door with the return air openings high or low on
the door for optimal sound attenuation. For 9,000 and 12,000 Btu
mo dels it is r ecom mended to inst all the d oor wi th th e hin ge on the
right side and the return air openings high on the door. For 18,000
and 24,000 Btu models it is recommended to install the hinge on
the left with the openings low on the door.
WARRANT Y – The warranty is one year on all parts and labor
and 5 years on the sealed system, parts and labor, including
compressor, indoor and outdoor coils and refrigerant tubing.
