the standards of the National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA) for the installation of Air
Conditioning, Warm Air Heating and Ventilating
Systems (NFPA 90A
non-conditioned spaces must be insulated to
prevent formation of condensate and for
maximum efficiency.

6. The safety testing agency labels appear on the
unit’s cover and t h e factory installed coil (if
provided) only. It does not cover any other
equipment. Exterior surface of cabinet may sweat
when units is installed in a non-conditioned space
such as an attic or garage. Installer must provide
protection such
all units installed in a non-conditioned space to
prevent damage from condensation runoff. It is
recommended that units installed in non­conditioned spaces be insulated with 1” thick
fiberglass with the vapor barrier on the outside.

8. Cabinet insulation is rated for R-4.2 (standard).
Some jurisdictions require R-6.0 on installations
in a non-conditioned space. To achieve R-6.0,
add insulation 1” thick to exterior of the unit
to comply in these jurisdictions, putting the
vapor barrier on the outside.

WARNING:
Hot water can scald. Water heated to a temperature
which will satisfy space heating can scald and
permanently injure a person upon contact. Some people
are more likely to be permanently injured by hot water
than others. These include the elderly, children, the
infirm, physically or mentally handicapped.
Check local, State, and National codes requiring a

is found, follow the instructions under the “INSPECTION”
section of this manual.
This air handler is completely assembled. (NOTE: Electric
heat can be ordered as field installed, if field
installed, refer to the sep
provided with the heater kit.) Only electrical power,
thermostat wiring, hot water piping (if applicable) and
duct connections are needed for installation. DX coils will
also require refrigerant and condensate drain connections.
Some units may have motor supports over the motor shaft.
Remove these supports as necessary.

MINIMUM CLEARENCES:

These units have a 0” minimum clearance to combustible

als rating from all cabinet surfaces. The unit should

materi
be installed with serviceability clearance of 30” from the
front of the unit. The unit can be serviced entirely from the
front, including replacing the filter. Be sure to route
primary and secondary condensate drain piping so that it
does not obstruct replacement of the filter.
