1 − Assembled heat pump package unit
As soon as the unit is received, inspect the unit for possible
damage during transit. If damage is evident, the extent of
the damage must be noted on the carrier’s freight bill. Make
a separate request for inspection by the carrier’s agent.
If any damages are discovered and reported to the carrier
DO NOT INSTALL THE UNIT, as claim may be denied.
Check the unit rating plate to confirm specifications are
as ordered.
WARNING
Product contains fiberglass wool.
Disturbing the insulation in this product during
installation, maintenance, or repair will expose you
to fiberglass wool dust. Breathing this may cause
lung cancer. (Fiberglass wool is known to the State
of California to cause cancer.)
Fiberglass wool may also cause respiratory, skin,
and eye irritation.
To reduce exposure to this substance or for further
information, consult material safety data sheets
available from address shown below, or contact your
supervisor.
These instructions explain the recommended method of
installation of the heat pump unit, and associated electri
cal wiring.
This unit is designed and approved for use as a self−con
tained air to air outdoor heat pump system.
The units are factory equipped with a transformer and
blower control for applications without auxiliary heat. Elec
tric heat accessory kits (ECH29) can be ordered for field
installation of additional heat where required.
These instructions, and any instructions packaged with
mating components and/or accessories, should be care
fully read prior to beginning installation. Note particularly
any CAUTIONS or Notes in these instructions and all la
bels on the units.
These instructions are intended as a general guide only for
use by qualified personnel and do not supersede any na
tional or local codes in any way. Compliance with all local,
state, provincial or national codes pertaining to this type of
equipment should be determined prior to installation.
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service
or maintenance can cause property damage, personal
injury or loss of life. Installation and service must be
performed by a qualified installer or service agency.
Unit should be installed in accordance with all national and
local safety codes.
NOTE − For improved start−up performance, the indoor coil
should be washed with suitable detergent to remove any
residue from manufacturing processes.
Limitations for unit and appropriate accessories must also
be observed.
The unit must not be installed with any duct system in the
outdoor air stream. The outdoor fan is not designed to oper
ate against any additional static pressure.
Minimum and maximum operating conditions must be ob
served to assure maximum system performance with mini
mum service required.

Exercise care when moving the unit. Do not remove any
packaging until unit is near the place of installation. A sling
assembly may be used to lift the unit. Spreaders which are
longer than the largest dimension across unit MUST be
used across the top of the unit.
CAUTION
Before lifting a unit, make sure that the weight is dis
tributed equally on the cables so that it will lift evenly.
Units may also be moved or lifted with a forklift while still in
the factory supplied packaging.
FORKS MUST BE A MINIMUM OF 42 INCHES LONG.
NOTE − Do not permit overhanging structures or shrubs to
obstruct condenser air discharge outlet or inlet.
The unit is designed to be located outdoors with sufficient
clearance for free entrance to air inlet and discharge. Loca
tion must also allow for adequate service access.
Specially designed roof curbs are available for these
units. Using any other roof curb may result in water leaking
into conditioned space. The specified roof curb is de
signed to allow water from the bottom of the condensing
coil to run off.
The unit must be installed on a solid foundation that will not
settle or shift. Adequate structural support must be pro
vided. Maintain minimum clearances as shown in illustra
tion and install unit in level position. Isolate the base from
the building structure to avoid possible transmission of
sound or vibration into conditioned space.
Unit foundation should be raised to a minimum of 3" above
finish grade. In areas which have prolonged periods of tem
perature below freezing and snowfall, the unit should be
elevated above the average snow line. Also extra precau
tion should be taken to allow free drainage of condensate
from defrost cycles to prevent ice accumulation. Unit
should not be located near walkways to prevent possible
icing of surface from defrost condensate.
Avoid placing unit near quiet areas, i.e. sleeping quarters or
study rooms. Normal operating sound levels may be objec
tionable if the unit is placed near certain rooms.

Filters
No filters are supplied with the unit. Filters must be
installed ahead of the evaporator coil and must be cleaned
or replaced as necessary. Dirty filters will reduce the air

Supply & Return Connections
Duct system should be designed and sized according to
the methods in Manual Q of the Air Conditioning Contrac
tors of America (ACCA).
A closed return duct system shall be used. This shall not
preclude use of economizers or outdoor fresh air intake. It
is recommended that supply and return duct connections
at the unit be made with flexible joints.
The supply and return air duct systems should be de
signed for the CFM and static requirements of the job.
They should NOT be sized to match the dimensions of
the duct connections on the unit.
The packaged heat pumps are equipped with a 3/4" fpt
coupling for condensate line connection. The drain line
must be properly trapped and routed to a suitable drain.
See illustration for proper drain arrangement. The drain
line must pitch to an open drain or pump to prevent clog
ging of the line.
CAUTION
When fastening duct system to side duct flanges on
unit, insert screws through duct flanges only. Do not
insert screws through casing. Outdoor duct must be
insulated and waterproofed.

the outdoor coil, the defrost control monitors the need for

maintain system performance. The defrost control is time/
temperature initiated and temperature terminated with a
maximum defrost time (time−out) of 10 minutes. Time be
tween defrost cycles is pre−set at 60 minute intervals at the
factory, but can be field adjusted between 30, 60 or 90 min

tion and outdoor fan should start.
Adjustments − 12CHP060 Only
12CHP060 units are equipped with a variable speed indoor
blower motor. The blower speed is factory−set and should
not require field adjustment; however, air volume can be in
creased by 5 percent, if necessary. Follow the procedure
below.
1 − Disconnect power.
2 − Locate the blower control board wiring harness.
3 − To increase air volume (CFM) in the cooling mode, use a
pin extractor to remove the wire from harness pin posi
tion 5 (violet wire).
4 − To increase air volume (CFM) in the heating mode,
use a pin extractor to remove the wire from harness
pin position 11 (pink wire)
NOTE − If a pin extractor is not available, cut the wire and
tape off both ends.
Maintenance
Periodic inspection and maintenance normally consists of
changing or cleaning filters and (under some conditions)
cleaning the coils.
WARNING
Electric shock hazard. Can cause inju
ry or death. Before attempting to per
form any service or maintenance, turn
the electircal power to unit OFF at dis
connect switch(es). Unit may have
multiple power suppplies.
Filters
Not supplied. Inspect once a month. Replace disposable or
clean permanent type as necessary. DO NOT replace per
manent type with disposable.
Outdoor Motor
The outdoor fan motor is permanently lubricated and re
quires no maintenance.
Outdoor Coil
Dirt should not be allowed to accumulate on the outdoor
coil surface or other parts in the air circuit. Cleaning should
be as often as necessary to keep coil clean. Use a brush,
vacuum cleaner attachment, or other suitable means. If
water is used to clean coil, be sure power to the unit is shut
off prior to cleaning.
NOTE − Care should be used when cleaning the coil so that
the coil fins are not damaged.
