5Pre-Installation Considerations
5.1Preparation
Keep this document with the unit. Carefully read all instructions for the installation prior to installing product. Make sure each
step or procedure is understood and any special considerations are taken into account before starting installation. Assemble all
tools, hardware and supplies needed to complete the installation. Some items may need to be purchased locally. Make sure
everything needed to install the product is on hand before starting.
5.2 System Matches
The entire system (combination of indoor and outdoor sections) must be manufacturer approved and Air-Conditioning, Heating,
and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) listed. NOTE: Installation of unmatched systems is not permitted. Damage or repairs due to
installation of unmatched systems is not covered under the warranty.
5.3Interconnecting Tubing
Give special consideration to minimize the length of refrigerant tubing when installing air handlers. Refer to Remote Cooling/Heat
Pump Service Manual RS6200006, and TP-107 Long Line Set Application R-410A for tubing guidelines. If possible, allow adequate
length of tubing such that the coil may be removed (for inspection or cleaning services) from the cabinet without disconnecting
the tubing.
5.4Clearances
The unit clearance from a combustible surface may be 0". However, service clearance must take precedence. A minimum of 24" in
front of the unit for service clearance is required. Additional clearance on one side or top will be required for electrical wiring
connections. Consult all appropriate regulatory codes prior to determining final clearances. When installing this unit in an area
that may become wet (such as crawl spaces), elevate the unit with a sturdy, non-porous material. In installations that may lead to
physical damage (i.e. a garage) it is advised to install a protective barrier to prevent such damage. Always install units such that a
positive slope in condensate line (1/4" per foot) is allowed.

5.5 Horizontal Applications
If installed above a finished living space, a secondary drain pan (as required by many building codes), must be installed under the
entire unit and its condensate drain line must be routed to a location such that the user will see the condensate discharge.
6Installation Location
NOTE: These air handlers are designed for indoor installation only.
The AVPTC**14** product line may be installed in one of the upflow, downflow, horizontal left or horizontal right orientations as
shown in Figures 2, 3, 4 and 5. The unit may be installed in upflow or horizontal left orientation as shipped (refer to specific sections for
more information).
Minor field modifications are necessary to convert to downflow or horizontal right as indicated in below sections.
6.1 Upflow Installation
No field modifications are mandatory however to obtain maximum
efficiency, the horizontal drip shield must be removed.
Drip Shield Removal: Refer to Figure 1, remove the two (2) screws
that secure the drip shield support brackets to the condensate
collectors (one screw per side). Remove the two (2) screws that
secure the drip shield to the drain pan. The drip shield and drip
shield brackets may now be removed.
The bottom left drain connection is the primary drain for this application and condensate drain line must be attached to this drain
connection. The top connection of the three drain connections on
the drain pan must remain plugged for this application. The bottom right drain connection is for the secondary drain line (if used).

the drain pan must remain plugged for this application. The bottom left drain connection is for the secondary drain line (if used).
Use condensate management kit if equipment is installed in high humidity condition (for example: 70% or higher).
6.3 Downflow/Horizontal Right Installation
IMPORTANT NOTE: In the downflow application, to prevent coil pan “sweating”, a downflow kit (DFK) is available through your
local Goodman distributor. The DFK is not supplied with the air handler and is required by Goodman on all downflow installations.
See Table 2 for the correct DFK and follow the instructions provided for installation.
Refer to Figure 6 and 7 for the location of the components referenced in the following steps.
1. Before inverting the air handler, remove blower access panel and coil access panel. The coil access panel and tubing panel may
remain screwed together during this procedure. Remove and retain the seven (7) screws securing the coil access panel to the
cabinet and the six (6) screws securing the blower access panel
to the cabinet.
2. Slide the coil assembly out using the drain pan to pull the assembly from the cabinet.
NOTE: DO NOT USE MANIFOLDS OR FLOWRATOR TO PULL THE
COIL ASSEMBLY OUT. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN BRAZE
JOINT DAMAGE AND LEAKS.
3. Removal of the center support is required on units with 21" wide cabinet. Remove and retain the two (2) screws that secure the
center support to the cabinet. Remove the center support.
4. Using the drain pan to hold the coil assembly, slide the coil assembly back into the cabinet on the downflow brackets as shown in
Figure 8.
5. Re-install the center support (if removed) using the two (2) screws removed in Step 4.
6. Re-install the access panels removed in Step 1 as shown in Figure 9.
7. The bottom left drain connection is the primary drain for this application and condensate drain line must be attached to this
drain connection. The top connection of the three drain connections on the drain pan must remain plugged for this application.
The bottom left drain connection is for the secondary drain line (if used).

7.4Thermal Expansion Valve System Adjustment
Run the system at Cooling for 10 minutes until refrigerant pressures
stabilize. Use the followung guidelines and methods to check unit
operation and ensure that the refrigerant charge is within limits.
Charge the unit on low stage.
1. Purge gauge lines. Connect service gauge manifold to base-valve service
ports.
2. Temporarily install a thermometer on the liquid line at the liquid line service valve and 4-6’’ from the compressor on the suction line. Ensure the
thermometer makes adequate contact and is insulated for best possible
readings. Use liquid line temperatice to determine subcooling and vapor
temperature to determine superheat.
3. Check subcooling and superheat. Systems with TXV application should
have a subcooling of 5 to 7°F and superheat of 7 to 9°F
a. If subcooling and superheat are low, adjust TXV to 7 to 9°F, and then check subcooling.

8Condensate Drain Lines
The coil drain pan has a primary and a secondary drain with 3/4" NPT female connections. The connectors required are 3/4" NPT male,
either PVC or metal pipe, and should be hand tightened to a torque of no more than 37 in-lbs. to prevent damage to the drain pan
connection. An insertion depth of approximately 3/8” to 1/2” (3-5 turns) should be expected at this torque.
1. Ensure drain pan hole is not obstructed.
2. To prevent potential sweating and dripping on to finished space, it may be necessary to insulate the condensate drain line located
inside the building. Use Armaflex® or similar material.
A secondary condensate drain connection has been provided for areas where the building codes require it. Pitch all drain lines a minimum of 1/4" per foot to provide free drainage. Provide required
support to the drain line to prevent bowing. If the secondary drain
line is required, run the line separately from the primary drain and
If secondary drain is not installed, the secondary
access must be plugged.
end it where condensate discharge can be easily seen.
NOTE: Water coming from secondary line means the coil primary
drain is plugged and needs immediate attention.
Insulate drain lines located inside the building or above a finished living space to
prevent sweating. Install a condensate trap to ensure proper drainage.
NOTE: When units are installed above ceilings, or in other locations where
damage from condensate overflow may occur, it is MANDATORY to install a field
fabricated auxiliary drain pan under the coil cabinet enclosure.
The installation must include a “P” style trap that is located as close as is practical to the evaporator coil. See Figure 12 for details of a typical condensate line
“P” trap.
NOTE: Trapped lines are required by many local codes. In the absence of any
prevailing local codes, please refer to the requirements listed in the Uniform
Mechanical Building Code.
A drain trap in a draw-through application prevents air from being drawn back through the drain line during fan operation thus
preventing condensate from draining, and if connected to a sewer line to prevent sewer gases from being drawn into the airstream
during blower operation.
Field experience has shown condensate drain traps with an open vertical Tee between the air handler and the condensate drain trap
can improve condensate drainage in some applications, but may cause excessive air discharge out of the open Tee. Goodman® does
not prohibit this type of drain but we also do not recommend it due to the resulting air leakage. Regardless of the condensate drain
design used, it is the installer’s responsibility to ensure the condensate drain system is of sufficient design to ensure proper condensate removal from the coil drain pan.
Use of a condensate removal pump is permitted when necessary. This condensate pump should have provisions for shutting off the
control voltage should a blocked drain occur. A trap must be installed between the unit and the condensate pump.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The evaporator coil is fabricated with oils that may dissolve styrofoam and certain types of plastics. Therefore, a
removal pump or float switch must not contain any of these materials.
Tip: Priming the “P” trap may avoid improper draining at the initial installation and at the beginning of the cooling season.
9Ductwork
This air handler is designed for a complete supply and return ductwork system.
To ensure correct system performance, the ductwork is to be sized to accommodate 350-450 CFM per ton of cooling with the static
pressure not to exceed 0.5" in w.c. Refer to ACCA Manual D, Manual S and Manual RS for information on duct sizing and application.
Flame retardant ductwork is to be used and sealed to the unit in a manner that will prevent leakage.
NOTE: A downflow application with electric heat must have an L-shaped sheet metal supply duct without any outlets or registers
located directly below the heater.
9.1Return Ductwork
DO NOT LOCATE THE RETURN DUCTWORK IN AN AREA THAT CAN INTRODUCE TOXIC, OR OBJECTIONABLE FUMES/ODORS INTO
THE DUCTWORK. The return ductwork is to be connected to the air handler bottom (upflow configuration).
10 Return Air Filters
Each installation must include a return air filter. This filtering may be performed at the air handler using the factory filter rails or
externally such as a return air filter grille. When using the factory filter rails, a nominal 16x20x1”, 20x20x1” or 24x20x1” (actual
9
Page 10
dimension must be less than 23-½”x20”) filter can be installed on a B, C and D cabinet respectively (the cabinet size is the seventh letter
of the model number).
11 Electric Heat
Refer to the installation manual provided with the electric heat kit
for the correct installation procedure. All electric heat must be
field installed. If installing this option, the ONLY heat kits that are
permitted to be used are the HKS series. Refer to the air handler
unit’s Serial and Rating plate or the HKS specification sheets to
determine the heat kits compatible with a given air handler. No
other accessory heat kit besides the HKS series may be installed in these air handlers.
The heating mode temperature rise is dependent upon the system airflow, the supply voltage, and the heat kit size (kW) selected. Use
data provided in Tables 3, 4 and 5 to determine the temperature rise (°F).
NOTE: For installations not indicated above the following formula is to be used:
TR = (kW x 3412) x (Voltage Correction) / (1.08 x CFM)
Where:TR= Temperature Rise
kW= Heater Kit Actual kW
3412 = Btu per kW
VC*= .96 (230 Supply Volts)
= .92 (220 Supply Volts)
= .87 (208 Supply Volts)
1.08= Constant
CFM= Measured Airflow
Do not operate this product without all the ductwork
attached.
VC* (Voltage Correction)
NOTE: The Temperature Rise Tables can also be used to estimate the air handler airflow delivery. When using these tables for this
purpose set the room thermostat to maximum heat and allow the system to reach steady state conditions. Insert two thermometers,
one in the return air and one in the supply air. The temperature rise is the supply air temperature minus the return air temperature.
Using the temperature rise calculated, CFM can be estimated from the TR formula above. See Spec Sheets and/or Service Manual for
more information.

12.3 Maximum Overcurrent Protection (MOP)
Every installation must include an NEC (USA) or CEC
(Canada) approved overcurrent protection device. Also,
check with local or state codes for any special regional requirements.
Protection can be in the form of fusing or HACR style circuit
breakers. The Series and Rating Plate provides the maximum overcurrent device permissible.
NOTE: Fuses or circuit breakers are to be sized larger than
the equipment MCA but not to exceed the MOP.

Page 12
12.4.3 Air Handler With Circuit Breaker Heat Kit
The air handler has a plastic cover on the upper access panel that will require either one or both sections to be removed to allow
the heat kit circuit breaker(s) to be installed. The circuit breakers have lugs for power supply connection. See the HKS Installation Instructions for further details.
12.5 Low Voltage Connections
Several combinations of low voltage schemes are possible, depending on the presence of a heat kit and whether the heat kit is
single-stage or multi-stage, whether the outdoor section is an air conditioner or heat pump, and whether the system is setup
with a communicating or traditional thermostat. The 24V-control voltage connects the air handler to the room thermostat and
condenser. Low voltage wiring must be copper conductors. A minimum of 18 AWG must be used for installations up to 100 feet.
Low voltage wiring must be connected through the top of the cabinet or either side. See the “Thermostat Wiring” section of this
manual for typical low voltage wiring connections.
13 Achieving 1.4% and 2.0% Airflow Low Leakage Rate
Ensure all the gaskets remain intact on all surfaces as shipped with the unit. These surfaces are areas between the upper tie plate and
coil access panel, blower access and coil access panels, and between the coil access and filter access panels. Ensure upon installation,
that the plastic breaker cover is sitting flush on the blower access panel and all access panels are flush with each other and the cabinet.
With these requirements satisfied, the unit achieves less than 1.4% airflow leakage @ 0.5 inch wc static pressure and less than 2%
airflow leakage @1inch wc static pressure when tested in accordance with ASHRAE Standard 193.
14 24 Volt Wiring
14.1 24 Volt Thermostat Wiring - Non-Communicating Thermostat Connections
NOTE: Wire routing must not interfere with the circulator blower operation or routine maintenance.
The air handler’s integrated control module provides terminals for “Y1” and “Y2” and “W1” and “W2” thermostat connections. This
allows the air handler to support the systems shown in the following table. Refer to the following figures for typical connections to the
integrated control module. Thermostat wiring entrance holes are located in the top of the blower. Wire routing must not interfere
with circulator blower operation or routine maintenance.
NOTE: A removable plug connector is provided with the control to make thermostat wire connections. This plug may be removed,
wire connections made to the plug, and replaced. It is STRONGLY recommended that you do not connect multiple wires into a single
terminal. Wire nuts are recommended to ensure one wire is used for each terminal. Failure to do so may result in intermittent
operation.
14.2 24 Volt Dehumidistat Wiring - Non-Communicating Thermostat
Connections
The optional usage of a dehumidistat allows the air handler’s circulator
blower to operate at a slightly lower speed during a combined thermostat call for cooling and dehumidistat call for dehumidification. This
lower blower speed enhances dehumidification of the conditioned air
as it passes through the AC coil. For proper function, a dehumidistat
applied to this air handler must operate on 24 VAC and utilize a switch
which opens on humidity rise.

15 Auxiliary Alarm Switch
The control is equipped with two Auxiliary Alarm terminals labeled CAS which can be
utilized with communicating mode setups (typically used for condensate switch wiring
but could be used with compatible C02 sensors or fire alarms).
Legacy mode use
In a legacy system (Non-communicating), this feature is not operational. Any auxiliary
alarm switch must be used to interrupt the Y1 signal either to the indoor or outdoor
unit.
Communication mode use
This feature can be activated or deactivated through the thermostat user menus. An
auxiliary alarm switch must be normally closed and open when the base pan’s water
level in the evaporator coil reaches a particular level. The control will respond by turning off the outdoor compressor and display the proper fault codes. If the switch is detected closed for 30 seconds, normal operation resumes and the error message will be
removed.

Use the CFM LED (green) to obtain an approximate airflow quantity. The green CFM LED blinks once for each 100 CFM of airflow.
1. Determine the tonnage of the cooling system installed with the air handler. If the cooling capacity is in BTU/hr divide it by 12,000
to convert capacity to TONs.
Example: Cooling Capacity of 30,000 BTU/hr.
30,000/12,000 = 2.5 Tons
2. Determine the proper airflow for the cooling system. Most cooling systems are designed to work with airflows between 350 and
450 CFM per ton. Most manufacturers recommend an airflow of about 400 CFM per ton.
Example: 2.5 tons X 400 CFM per ton = 1000 CFM
The cooling system manufacturer’s instructions must be checked for requiredairflow. Any electronic air cleaners or other devices may require a specific airflow;
consult installation instructions of those devices for requirements.

airflow and operates there for approximately 7 1/2
minutes. The motor then steps up to the full demand
airflow. Profile D has a 1/2 minute at 50% airflow OFF
delay.
7. If an electric heater kit has been installed, determine
the heater kilowatt (kW) rating. Using the Electric Heat
Airflow table on page 16, set dip switches 9, 10, and 11
for the installed heater. The adjust setting (already established by the cooling speed selection) also applies
to the electric heater kit airflow. Thus, the electric
heater airflow is adjusted by the same amount. This
does not apply to systems setup with a communicating thermostat. See Set-Up section in the AIR HANDLER

NOTE: The Temperature Rise Tables can also be used to determine the air handler airflow delivery. When using these tables for this
purpose set the room thermostat to maximum heat and allow the system to reach steady state conditions. Insert two thermometers,
one in the return air and one in the supply air. The temperature rise is the supply air temperature minus the room air temperature.
Use HKR specification sheets to determine the HKR available for a given air handler.

19.1 Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
NOTE: Discharge body’s static electricity before touching unit. An electrostatic discharge can adversely affect electrical components.
Use the following precautions during air handler installation and servicing to protect the integrated control module from damage. By
putting the air handler, the control, and the person at the same electrostatic potential, these steps will help avoid exposing the
integrated control module to electrostatic discharge. This procedure is applicable to both installed and uninstalled (ungrounded)
blowers.
1. Disconnect all power to the blower. Do not touch the integrated control module or any wire connected to the control
prior to discharging your body’s electrostatic charge to ground.

TO
AVOID PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH DUE TO
ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER
BEFORE PERFORMING ANY SERVICE OR MAINTENANCE
2. Firmly touch a clean, unpainted, metal surface of the air handler blower near the control. Any tools held in a person’s hand during grounding will bed i s charged.
3. Service integrated control module or connecting wiring following the discharge processin step 2.
Use caution not to recharge your body with static electricity; (i.e., do not move or shuffleyour feet,
do not touch ungrounded objects, etc.). If you come in contact with an ungroundedobject, repeat step 2 before touching control or wires.

4. Discharge your body to ground before removing a new control from its container. Follow steps 1 through 3 if installing the
control on a blower. Return any old or new controls to their containers before touching any ungrounded object.
19.2 Diagnostic Chart
Refer to the Troubleshooting Chart at the end of this manual for assistance in determining the source of unit operational problems.
The 7 segment LED display will provide any active fault codes. An arrow printed next to the display indicates proper orientation (arrow
points to top of display). See Figure 31.
19.3 Fault Recall
The integrated control module is equipped with a momentary push-button switch that can be used to display the last six faults on the
7 segment LED display. The control must be in Standby Mode (no thermostat inputs) to use the feature. Depress the push-button for
approximately two seconds and less than five seconds. The LED display will then display the six most recent faults beginning with the
most recent fault and decrementing to the least recent fault. The faults may be cleared by depressing the button for greater than five
seconds.
NOTE: Consecutively repeated faults are displayed a maximum of three times. Example: A clogged return air filter causes the air
handler’s motor to repeatedly enter a limiting condition. The control will only store this fault the first three consecutive times the fault
occurs.

20 ComfortNet™ System
20.1 Overview
The ComfortNet system is a system that includes a ComfortNet compatible air handler and air conditioner or heat pump with a CTK0*
thermostat. Any other system configurations are considered invalid ComfortNet systems and must be connected as a traditional (or
non-communicating) system (see the 24 V
A ComfortNet heating/air conditioning system differs from a non-communicating/traditional system in the manner in which the indoor unit, outdoor unit and thermostat interact with one another. In a traditional system, the thermostat sends commands to the
indoor and outdoor units via analog 24 VAC signals. It is a one-way communication path in that the indoor and outdoor units typically
do not return information to the thermostat.
On the other hand, the indoor unit, outdoor unit, and thermostat comprising a ComfortNet system “communicate” digitally with one
another. It is now a two-way communications path. The thermostat still sends commands to the indoor and outdoor units. However,
the thermostat may also request and receive information from both the indoor and outdoor units. This information may be displayed
on the ComfortNet thermostat. The indoor and outdoor units also interact with one another. The outdoor unit may send commands
to or request information from the indoor unit. This two-way digital communications between the thermostat and subsystems (indoor/outdoor unit) and between subsystems is the key to unlocking the benefits and features of the ComfortNet system.
Two-way digital communications is accomplished using only two wires. The thermostat and subsystem controls are powered with 24
VAC Thus, a maximum of 4 wires between the equipment and thermostat is all that is required to operate the system.
20.1 Airflow Consideration
Airflow demands are managed differently in a fully communicating system than they are in a non-communicating wired system. The
system operating mode (as determined by the thermostat) determines which unit calculates the system airflow demand. If the
indoor unit is responsible for determining the airflow demand, it calculates the demand and sends it to the ECM motor. If the
outdoor unit or thermostat is responsible for determining the demand, it calculates the demand and transmits the demand along
with a fan request to the indoor unit. The indoor unit then sends the demand to the ECM motor. The table below lists the various
ComfortNet systems, the operating mode, and airflow demand source.
For example, assume the system is a heat pump matched with an air handler. With a call for low stage cooling, the heat pump will
calculate the system’s low stage cooling airflow demand. The heat pump will then send a fan request along with the low stage cooling
airflow demand to the air handler. Once received, the air handler will send the low stage cooling airflow demand to the ECM motor.
The ECM motor then delivers the low stage cooling airflow. See the applicable ComfortNet air conditioner or heat pump installation
manual for the airflow delivered during cooling or heat pump heating.
In continuous fan mode, the CTK0* thermostat provides the airflow
demand. Depending on which CTK0* thermostat has been installed three
or four continuous fan speeds may be available. If the thermostat
provides three speeds (low, medium, high) they correspond to 25%, 50%
and 75%, respectively, of the air handlers’ maximum airflow capability. If
the thermostat provides four continuous fan speeds then a 100% airflow
option is added. During continuous fan operation, the thermostat sends
a fan request along with the continuous fan demand to the air handler.
The air handler, in turn, sends the demand to the ECM motor. The ECM
motor delivers the requested continuous fan airflow.
20.2 CTK0* Thermostat Wiring
NOTE: Refer to section Electrical Connections for 208/230 volt line
connections to the air handler.
NOTE: A removable plug connector is provided with the control to make
thermostat wire connections. This plug may be removed, wire connections
made to the plug, and replaced. It is
do not connect multiple wires into a single terminal. Wire nuts are
recommended to ensure one wire is used for each terminal. Failure to
do so may result in intermittent operation.
Typical 18 AWG thermostat wire may be used to wire the system components. One hundred (100) feet is the maximum length of wire between indoor unit and outdoor unit, or between indoor unit and
thermostat.
OLT THERMOSTAT WIRING - NON-COMMUNICATING THERMOSTAT CONNECTIONS section for details).
Three wires should be utilized between the indoor and outdoor units. For this wiring scheme, two wires for the data lines, 1 and 2 are
required and a wire connecting the common “C” terminals between the indoor and outdoor units. This connects both commons to the
same ground potential allowing for better communication. A 40VA, 208/230 VAC to 24 VAC transformer must be installed in the
outdoor unit to provide 24 VAC power to the outdoor unit’s electronic control. The transformer is included with the CTK0* kit. See kit
instructions for mounting and wiring instructions. Four wires are required between the indoor unit and thermostat.

NOTE: Refer to the instructions accompanying the ComfortNet compatible outdoor AC/HP unit for troubleshooting information.
Refer to the Troubleshooting Chart at the end of this manual for a listing of possible air handler error codes, possible causes and
corrective actions.
21 Start-Up Procedure
•Prior to start-up, ensure that all electrical connections are properly sized and tightened.
•All panels must be in place and secured. For Air Tight application, neoprene gasket must be positioned at prescribed locations to
achieve low airflow as stated in section 13.
•Tubing must be leak free.
•Unit should be elevated, trapped and pitched to allow for drainage.
•Low voltage wiring is connected.
•Auxiliary drain is installed when necessary and pitched to allow for drainage.
•Drain pan and drain tubing has been leak checked.
•Return and supply ducts are sealed.
•Unit is elevated when installed in a garage or where flammable vapors may be present.
•Unit is protected from vehicular or other physical damage.
•Return air is not obtained from any areas where there may be objectionable odors, flammable vapors or products of combustion such as carbon monoxide (CO), which may cause serious personal injury or death.
22 Regular Maintenance
The only item to be maintained on a regular basis by the user is the circulating air filter(s). Filter should be cleaned or replaced
regularly. A certified service technician must perform all other services.

damage and possible fire.
An indoor air filter must be used with your comfort system. A properly maintained filter will keep the indoor coil of your comfort system clean. A dirty coil
could cause poor operation and/or severe equipment damage.
Your air filter or filters could be located in your furnace, in a blower unit, or in “filter grilles” in your ceiling or walls. The installer of your air conditioner or heat
pump can tell you where your filter(s) are, and how to clean or replace them.
Check your filter(s) at least once a month. When they are dirty, replace or clean as required. Disposable type filters should be replaced. Reusable type filters
may be cleaned.
You may want to ask your dealer about high efficiency filters. High efficiency filters are available in both electronic and non-electronic types. These filters can
do a better job of catching small airborne particles.
Compressor
The compressor motor is hermetically sealed and does not require additional oiling.
Motors
Indoor and outdoor fan motors are permanently lubricated and do not require additional oiling.
This unit is equipped with an aluminum tube evaporator coil. The safest way to clean
the evaporator coil is to simply flush the coil with water. This cleaning practice remains as the recommended cleaning method for both copper tube and
aluminum tube residential cooling coils.
An alternate cleaning method is to use one of the products listed in the technical publication TP-109 (shipped in the literature bag with the unit) to clean the
coils. The cleaners listed are the only agents deemed safe and approved for use to clean round tube aluminum coils. TP-109 is available on the web site in
Partner Link > Service Toolkit.
NOTE: Ensure coils are rinsed well after use of any chemical cleaners.
Clean Outside Coil (Qualified Servicer Only)
Air must be able to flow through the outdoor unit of your comfort system. Do not construct a fence near the unit or build a deck or patio over the unit without
first discussing your plans with your dealer or other qualified servicer. Restricted airflow could lead to poor operation and/or severe equipment damage.
Likewise, it is important to keep the outdoor coil clean. Dirt, leaves, or debris could also restrict the airflow. If cleaning of the outdoor coil becomes necessary,
hire a qualified servicer. Inexperienced people could easily puncture the tubing in the coil. Even a small hole in the tubing could eventually cause a large loss
of refrigerant. Loss of refrigerant can cause poor operation and/or severe equipment damage.
Do not use a condensing unit cover to “protect” the outdoor unit during the winter, unless you first discuss it with your dealer. Any cover used must include
“breathable” fabric to avoid moisture buildup.
BEFORE CALLING YOUR SERVICER
• Check the thermostat to confirm that it is properly set.
•
Wait 15 minutes. Some devices in the outdoor unit or in programmable thermostats will prevent compressor operation for awhile, and then reset automatically.
Also, some power companies will install devices which shut off air conditioners
for several minutes on hot days. If you wait several minutes, the unit may begin
operation on its own.
•
Check the electrical panel for tripped circuit breakers or failed fuses. Reset the
circuit breakers or replace fuses as necessary.
•
Check the disconnect switch near the indoor furnace or blower to confirm that it

Check for obstructions on the outdoor unit . Confirm that it has not been covered on the sides or the top. Remove any obstruction that can be
safely removed. If the unit is covered with dirt or debris, call a qualified servicer to clean it.
• Check for blockage of the indoor air inlets and outlets. Confirm that they are open and have not been blocked by objects (rugs, curtains or
furniture).
•
Check the filter. If it is dirty, clean or replace it.
•
Listen for any unusual noise(s), other than normal operating noise, that might be coming from the outdoor unit. If you hear unusual noise(s)
coming from the unit, call a qualified servicer.
