SETTING THE UNIT
Refer to unitdimensions on page 2 for sizing mounting
slab, platforms or supports. Refer to figure 1 for instal-
lation clearances.

Slab Mounting
When installing unit at grade level, install on a level
slab high enough above gradeto allow adequatedrain-
age of water.
Top of slab should be located so run--off
water from higher ground will not collect around unit.
Roof Mounting
Install unit at a minimum of 4 inches above the surface
of the roof. Care must be taken to ensure weight ofunit
is properly distributed over roof joists and rafters. Ei-
ther redwood or steel supports are recommended.
ELECTRICAL
In the U.S.A., wiring must conform with current local
codes and the current National Electric Code (NEC). In
Canada, wiring must conform with current local codes
and the current Canadian Electrical Code (CEC). Refer to
the furnace or blower coil installation instructions for
additional wiring application diagrams and refer to
unit rating plate for minimum circuit ampacity and
maximum overcurrent protection size.
WARNING
Unit must begrounded inaccordance with nation-
al and local codes. Electric Shock Hazard.
Can cause injury or death.
Line Voltage
To facilitate conduit, a hole is providedin bottom of the
control box. Connect conduit to hole in control box
with proper conduit fitting.

PLUMBING
Field refrigerant piping consists of liquid and suction
lines from the condensing unit (sweat connections) to
the indoor evaporator coil (flare or sweatconnections).
Use Lennox L10 (flare) or L15 (sweat, non-flare) series
line sets as shown in table 1 or use field-fabricated re-
frigerant lines. Referto unit information manual piping
section for proper size, type and application of field--
fabricated lines.
Sweat Connection Procedure
1-- Ends of refrigerant lines must be cut square, free
from nicks or dents, deburred. Pipe must remain
round, do not pinch end of line.
2-- Wrap a wet cloth around the liquid line valve body
and copper tube stub to protect from heat damage
during brazing. Wrap another wet cloth underneath
the liquid valve to protect the base paint.
3-- Quench the jointswith a wetcloth to preventpossible
heat damage to the valve core and opening port.
4-- A field provided filter drier should be installed as
close as possible to the expansion device.
REFRIGERANT METERING DEVICE
10ACBunits are applicableto either RFCIV oran expan-
sion valve system. See indoor coil installation instruc-
tions and the Lennox engineering handbook for ap-
proved RFC and TXV match-ups and application
information. Table1 lists 10ACBunit liquid and suction
line sizes and corresponding line sets.

sure oil return to compressor.
RFC Systems
10ACB units are shipped with an RFCIV metering de-
vice. Replace existing RFCIV in indoor unit with RFCIV
supplied with the outdoor unit. Place the supplied
RFCIV sticker on indoor cabinet after installation. See
table 2 for size of RFCIV bullet shipped in each 10ACB
unit. In cases of non-traditional applications, RFCIV
bullet shipped may not be appropriate. Refer to the in-
door coil installation instructions and the engineering
handbook for specific orifice information.
