2.0 GENERAL INFORMATION
2.1 IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT EFFICIENCY AND INDOOR
2.1 AIR QUALITY
Central cooling and heating equipment is only as efficient as the duct system that car­ries the cooled or heated air. To maintain efficiency, comfort and good indoor air quality, it is important to have the proper balance between the air being supplied to each room and the air returning to the cooling and heating equipment.
Proper balance and sealing of the duct system improves the efficiency of the heating and air conditioning system and improves the indoor air quality of the home by reducing the amount of airborne pollutants that enter homes from spaces where the ductwork and / or equipment is located. The manufacturer and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star Program recommend that central duct systems be checked by a qualified contractor for proper balance and sealing.

WARNING
!
Duct leaks can create an unbalanced system and draw pollutants such as dirt, dust, fumes and odors into the home causing property damage. Fumes and odors from toxic, volatile or flammable chemicals, as well as automobile exhaust and carbon monoxide (CO), can be drawn into the liv­ing space through leaking ducts and unbalanced duct systems causing personal injury or death (see Figure 1).
• If air-moving equipment or ductwork is located in garages or off-garage storage areas - all joints, seams, and openings in the equipment and duct must be sealed to limit the migration of toxic fumes and odors including carbon monoxide from migrating into the living space.
• If air-moving equipment or ductwork is located in spaces containing fuel burning appliances such as water heaters or boilers - all joints, seams, and openings in the equipment and duct must also be sealed to prevent depressurization of the space and possible migration of combustion byproducts including carbon monoxide into the living space.

Replace 6 - #8 screws through flange in coil casing, flange in blower casing and into drive holes on inside of blower casing, two screws in back and two screws in each side. Do not overtighten sheet metal screws, they will strip easily if overtight­ened.
IMPORTANT: Configure the unit with the indoor coil casing installed on air inlet (return) side of the blower section. Do not try to configure unit with indoor coil on discharge (supply) side of blower section.
2.7 VERTICAL UPFLOW
• Electrical connections can be made from either the left or right side of the unit. Refrigerant and condensate drain connections are made on the front of the unit (see Figures 3 & 4).
• If return air is to be ducted, install duct flush with floor. Use fireproof resilient gasket 1/8 to 1/4 in. thick between duct, unit and floor. Set unit on floor over opening.
WARNING
!
IF UNIT IS TO BE INSTALLED WITHOUT AN INDOOR COIL, RETURN DUCT OR PLENUM, IT MUST NOT BE IN STALLED DIRECTLY OVER COMBUSTIBLE MATE­RIAL. IF INSTALLED WITHOUT AN INDOOR COIL WITH A RETURN DUCT OR PLENUM, THE AIR PLENUM OR DUCT MUST HAVE A SOLID SHEET METAL BOTTOM WITH NO RETURN AIR OPENINGS, REGISTERS OR FLEXIBLE AIR DUCTS LOCATED DIRECTLY UNDER THE UNIT. EXPOSING COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL TO THE RETURN OPENING OF AN UPFLOW UNIT WITHOUT AN INDOOR COIL CAN CAUSE A FIRE RESULTING IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, PER­SONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
2.8 VERTICAL DOWNFLOW

ROTATING CIRCUIT BREAKER
IMPORTANT: To comply with certification agencies and the National Electric Code, units with circuit breaker(s) on vertical units must have circuit breakers installed so that the breaker switch “on” position and marking is up and, “off” position and marking is down.
- To turn breaker(s): Rotate one breaker pair (circuit) at a time starting with the one on the right. Loosen both lugs on the load side of the breaker. Wires are bundles with wire ties, one bundle going to the right lug and one bundle going to the left lug.
- Using a screwdriver or pencil, lift white plastic tab with hole away from breaker until breaker releases from mounting opening (see Figure 5).
- With breaker held in hand, rotate breaker so that “on” position is up, “off” position is down with unit in planned vertical mounting position. Insert right wire bundle into top right breaker lug, ensuring all strands of all wires are inserted fully into lug, and no wire insula­tion is in lug.
- Tighten lug as tight as possible while holding circuit breaker. Check wires and make sure each wire is secure and none are loose. Repeat for left wire bundle in left top circuit breaker lug.
- Replace breaker by inserting breaker mounting tab opposite white pull tab in opening, hook mounting tab over edge in opening.
- With screwdriver or pencil, pull white tab with hole away from breaker while setting that side of breaker into opening. When breaker is in place, release tab, locking circuit break­er into location in opening.
- Repeat above operation for remaining breaker(s) (if more than one is provided).
- Replace single point wiring jumper bar, if it is used, on line side of breaker and tighten securely.
- Double check wires and lugs to make sure all are secure and tight. Check to make sure unit wiring to circuit breaker load lugs match that shown on the unit wiring diagram.
• Electrical connections can be made from either the left or right side of the unit. Refrigerant and condensate drain connections are made on the front of the unit (see Figure 4).
• RXBB-AA combustible floor base is used for all unit sizes. Unit must be centered on combustible base in the width dimension (14

FAILURE TO OBSERVE SUPPLY PLENUM, DUCT WARNINGS CAN CAUSE A FIRE RESULTING IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
3.0 ELECTRICAL WIRING
Field wiring must comply with the National Electric Code (C.E.C. in Canada) and any applicable local ordinance.
3.1 POWER WIRING
It is important that proper electrical power is available for connection to the unit model being installed. See the unit nameplate, wiring diagram and electrical data in the installa­tion instructions.
• If required, install a branch circuit disconnect of adequate size, located within sight of, and readily accessible to the unit.
• Units with factory installed circuit breaker(s) meet UL and CSA requirements as a ser­vice disconnect and should make above requirement for a field installed branch circuit disconnect unnecessary.
• IMPORTANT: Units may be equipped with one, two, or three 60 amp. circuit breakers. These breaker(s) protect the internal wiring in the event of a short circuit and serve as a disconnect. Circuit breakers installed within the unit do not provide over-current pro­tection of the supply wiring and therefore may be sized larger than the branch circuit protection.
• Supply circuit power wiring must be 75°C minimum copper conductors only. See elec­trical data for ampacity, wire size and circuit protector requirement. Supply circuit pro­tective devices may be either fuses or “HACR” type circuit breakers.
• Power wiring may be connected to either the right or left side (vertical) top or bottom (horizontal). A 7/8”, 1-3/32” dia. concentric knockout is provided for connection of power wiring to unit. If a larger opening is required, dependent upon kW electric heat supplied, pull appropriate size hole required for conduit size being used. Using a con­duit hole punch (Greenlee type), center punch using outside cabinet around 7/8” knockout as a template to center punch location and punch desired hole size. Holes may be punched for any size conduit up to a 2” hole for 1-1/2” con duit.
• Power wiring is connected to either the power terminal block or circuit breaker(s) in unit control compartment.
•Single phase units above 10.5 kW may be supplied with circuit breaker(s) requiring separate supply circuits. Units come standard with a jumper bar assembly connecting separate circuits into one single supply circuit (excluding 18 kW and 21 kW “C” volt­age units).
15
Page 16
• Jumper bar assemblies are connected to the line side lugs of the circuit breakers. Jumper bar is assembled for left (upflow) cabinet power wiring entrance. To convert to right (upflow) power entrance: Remove jumper cover, remove jumper bar from circuit breakers, remove screw on back holding left lug in upper hole to bar, reassemble lug in lower hole and retighten screw. Use the same procedure to move the right lug to the upper mounting hole. Reassemble jumper bar into circuit breakers and tighten lugs. Jumper bar is now ready for wiring from the opposite side.
• If a factory supplied jumper bar for single supply circuit is removed from unit to make multiple supply circuits the line side of the individual circuit breakers must be covered with finger safe covers. (See information on accessories for part numbers.)
• After wiring is complete, make sure finger safe cover(s) are replaced over circuit breaker(s) lugs covering lug where field connections are made. On units with jumper bar, make sure jumper bar cover is replaced and secured in place. Covers provided for jumper bar must have side of cover broken off on the side wiring has been con­nected so that field supply will clear under appropriate side of cover. Units with circuit breakers must have covers in place to meet requirements as a service disconnect.
3.2 CONTROL WIRING
IMPORTANT: Class 2 low voltage control wire should not be run in conduit with power wiring and must be separated from power wiring, unless class 1 wire of proper voltage rating is used.
• Low voltage control wiring should be 18 AWG color-coded (105°C minimum). For lengths longer than 100 ft., 16 AWG wire should be used.
• Control wiring should be routed through 1/2” dia. knockout near power wiring entrance on either left or right side of unit. After opening selected knockout, install bushing (supplied in parts bag) in openings.
• If control wiring is routed through right side (upflow), it must be routed through extrud­ed holes in lower front of blower housing behind power raceway to the left side of blower housing. If routed through left side (upflow), it should be routed through extruded hole in lower front left blower side.
• Field control connections are made to terminals extending from left side of control compartment (upflow position).
• See wiring diagrams attached to indoor and outdoor sections to be connected, control wiring diagram booklet supplied with outdoor heat pump section, or Figures 8 and 9.
• Do not leave excess field control wiring inside unit, pull excess control wire to outside of unit and provide strain relief for field control wiring on inside of cabinet at point wiring penetrates cabinet.
• Make sure, after installation, separation of control wiring and power wiring has been maintained.
16
3.3 GROUNDING
WARNING
!
THE UNIT MUST BE PERMANENTLY GROUNDED. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAUSING PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
• Grounding may be accomplished by grounding metal conduit when installed in accor­dance with electrical codes to the unit cabinet.
• Grounding may also be accomplished by attaching ground wire(s) to ground lug(s) provided in the unit wiring compartment.
• Ground lug(s) are located close to wire entrance on left side of unit (upflow). Lug(s) may be moved to marked locations near wire entrance on right side of unit (upflow), if alternate location is more convenient.
• Use of multiple supply circuits require grounding of each circuit to lug(s) provided in unit.

4.0 DUCTWORK
Field ductwork must comply with the National Fire Protection Association NFPA 90A, NFPA 90B and any applicable local ordinance.
WARNING
!
UNITS ARE FOR DUCTED APPLICATIONS ONLY. A MINIMUM OF 36 INCHES OF SUPPLY AIR PLENUM AND DUCTWORK IS REQUIRED. NO SUPPLY AIR OPEN­INGS, REGISTERS OR FLEXIBLE AIR DUCTS MAY BE LOCATED WITHIN THE FIRST 36 INCHES OF SUPPLY PLENUM AND DUCTWORK ON UNITS WITH ELECTRIC HEATERS. FAILURE TO OBSERVE SUPPLY PLENUM/DUCT WARN­INGS CAN CAUSE A FIRE RESULTING IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
Sheet metal ductwork run in unconditioned spaces must be insulated and covered with a vapor barrier. Fibrous ductwork may be used if constructed and installed in accordance with SMACNA Construction Standard on Fibrous Glass Ducts. Ductwork must comply with National Fire Protection Association as tested by U/L Standard 181 for Class I Air Ducts. Check local codes for requirements on ductwork and insulation.
• Duct system must be designed within the range of external static pressure the unit is designed to operate against. It is important that the system airflow be adequate. Make sure supply and return ductwork, grills, special filters, accessories, etc. are accounted for in total resistance. See airflow performance tables in this manual.
• Design the duct system in accordance with “ACCA” Manual “D” Design for Residential Winter and Summer Air Conditioning and Equipment Selection. Latest editions are available from: “ACCA” Air Conditioning Contractors of America, 1513 16th Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20036. If duct system incorporates flexible air duct, be sure pressure drop information (straight length plus all turns) shown in “ACCA” Manual “D” is accounted for in system.
• Supply plenum is attached to the 3/4” duct flanges supplied on the unit around the blower outlet. Flanges are flat for shipping purposes and must be bent up along perfo­rated edge around blower opening. Be sure to bend flanges completely up so they do not interfere with air being discharged from blower.
IMPORTANT: Flanges around blower opening for attaching supply duct must be bent up out of blower discharge even if not used so they do not restrict airflow from blower.
• Supply plenum should be the same size as the flanges provided around the blower outlet. Ideally, it should extend 3 feet from the unit before turning or branching off plenum into duct runs. The plenum forms an extension of the blower housing and minimizes air expansion losses from the blower. Changing the size, shape or length will degrade blower performance. If supply discharges directly into a larger duct or plenum as much as .1” W.C., static pressure will be lost. If 3 feet is not possible, even 6, 12 or 18 inches will help.
IMPORTANT: If an elbow is included in the plenum close to the unit, it must not be smaller than the dimensions of the supply duct flange on the unit.
• Some units with electric heaters require 1 in. clearance to supply plenum and branch ducts to combustible material for the first 3 feet from the unit. See CLEARANCES.
• A 3/4” return duct flange is supplied on all sides of the air inlet opening of the unit coil casing. If the unit is to be installed without a coil casing (no indoor coil), a 3/4” flange is supplied on the back and sides of the air inlet opening of the blower casing. No flange is provided on the front of the opening to the blower casing. If return duct is attached to the inlet of the blower casing, the front flange of the duct should be run up into the opening or 90° brake made on the front flange to tape to the front of the blow­er casing.
IMPORTANT: The front flange on the return duct if connected to the blower cas-
ing must not be screwed into the area where the power wiring is located. Drills or sharp screw points can damage insulation on wires located inside unit.
• Return duct flanges on blower or coil casing are flat for shipping purposes and must be bent out along perforated edge around opening.
• Secure the supply and return ductwork to the unit flanges, using proper fasteners for the type of duct used and tape the duct-to-unit joint as required to prevent air leaks.
(SEE SPECIFIC AIRFLOW POSITION FOR ADDITIONAL
WARNINGS)

5.0 REFRIGERANT CONNECTIONS
Keep coil connections sealed until refrigerant connections are to be made. See outdoor unit manual for details on line sizing, tubing installation, evacuation and charging infor­mation.
• To install the refrigerant connections, first install the refrigerant block-off plate (locat­ed in the Parts Bag, see Figure 10) around the refrigerant connections. Braze all fit­tings. When refrigerant lines have cooled, insert the foam gasket (located in the parts bag, see Figure 10) around the refrigerant lines, between the coil and the refrigerant block-off plate.
IMPORTANT: The refrigerant block-off plate MUST be installed around the refrig­erant connections before brazing.
• When making braze connections close to outside of cabinet, use a brazing shield to protect cabinet paint from being damaged from torch flame.
• If the installation is in a tight location, it might be convenient to make some external tubing connections before setting unit in place.
IMPORTANT: Install refrigerant tubing so it does not block service access to front of unit. 24 in. clearance is required for filter, coil or blower removal and service access.
FIGURE 10
REFRIGERANT BLOCK-OFF PLATE AND FOAM GASKET

5.1 FLOWCHECK PISTONS
See outdoor unit installation instructions for correct flowcheck piston sizes and proper piston installation instructions.
• Indoor coil piston size is indicated by the digits underscored in the indoor coil model number.
IMPORTANT: It is important that the proper piston sizes be used dependent on indoor coil, outdoor unit combination and application.
Page 21
6.0 CONDENSATE DRAIN TUBING
Consult local codes or ordinances for specific requirements that may apply.
• The coil door is shipped from the factory with the condensate drain knockout attached. Knockout must be removed and the condensate block-off plate (included in parts bag, see Figure 11) must be installed to access the front drain.
• Vertical units (vertical drain pan) are supplied with a 3/4” female pipe thread primary drain connection and a 3/4” female pipe thread auxiliary drain connection. (See unit dimensions figures for drain locations.)
IMPORTANT: Side drain connections on vertical drain pans have a plastic web covering opening. Connection(s) used must be broken out before connection(s) are made. Break out only connection(s) to be used. Front drain connections have removable threaded plastic plugs factory installed. Plugs must be removed before connections are made; do not remove plugs if these connections are not used.
• Horizontal units (horizontal drain pan) are supplied with a 3/4” female pipe thread pri­mary drain connection and a 3/4” female pipe thread auxiliary drain connection. (See unit dimensions and position figures for drain locations).
IMPORTANT: All horizontal pans have plastic web over the secondary drain con­nection. Plastic web covering secondary connection must be broken out if used. Secondary connection is lowered by 3/8”. Do not get primary and secondary con­nections interchanged.
• Removal of door knockouts required for drain connections can be made much easier with the door removed from the cabinet.
• Install drain lines so they do not block service access to front of unit. 24 in. clearance is required for filter, coil or blower removal and service access.
• Make sure unit is level or pitched slightly toward primary drain connection so that drain pan will drain completely without water standing in pan.
FIGURE 11
CONDENSATE BLOCK-OFF PLATE
IMPORTANT: 2-6" PVC lengths are provided for making drain connection. When making drain fitting connections to drain pan, use a thin layer of teflon paste, sili­cone or teflon tape and install hand tight.
IMPORTANT: When making drain fitting connections to drain pan, do not over torque. Overtorquing fittings can split pipe connections on drain pan.
• Do not reduce drain line size less than connection size provided on condensate drain pan.
• All drain lines must be pitched downward away from the unit a minimum of 1/8 in. per foot of line to ensure proper drainage.
• Do not connect condensate drain line to a closed or open sewer pipe. Run conden­sate to an open drain or outdoors.
• The drain line should be insulated where necessary to prevent sweating and damage due to condensate forming on the outside surface of the line.
21
Page 22
• Make provisions for disconnecting and cleaning of the primary drain line should it become necessary.
• Install a 2 in. trap in the primary drain line as close to the unit as possible. Make sure that the top of the trap is below connection to the drain pan to allow complete drainage of pan.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate unit without a drain trap (see Figure 12). The conden­sate drain is on the negative side of the blower, therefore, air being pulled in through the condensate line will prevent positive drainage without a proper trap.
• Auxiliary drain if used should be run to a place where it will be noticeable if it become operational. Occupant should be warned that a problem exists if water should begin running from the auxiliary drain line.
• Test condensate drain pan and drain line after installation is complete. Pour several quarts of water into drain pan, enough to fill drain trap and line. Check to make sure drain pan is draining completely, no leaks are found in drain line fittings, and water is draining from the termination of the primary drain line.
FIGURE 12
CONDENSATE DRAIN TRAP
ST-A1244-01-01
7.0 AIR FILTER
The unit internal air filter should only be used if the unit is readily accessible for filter cleaning or replacing.
• If unit is not readily accessible for filter maintenance, a remote filter should be installed in the return air system.
• If a remote filter is installed, it should be sized for a maximum of 300 feet/min. air velocity for the CFM required..
IMPORTANT: Do not operate system without a filter. A filter is required to protect the coil, blower and internal parts from excessive dirt and dust.
• See unit position figures for location of filter in unit cabinet and service panel giving access to unit filter.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
In a downflow configuration the internal air filter must not be used.
• A remote air filter should be installed in the return air system
• The remote air filter should be sized for a maximum of 300 feet per minute of air veloci­ty for the CFM required.
8.0 AIRFLOW PERFORMANCE
Airflow performance data is based on cooling performance with a coil and filter in place. Select performance table for appropriate unit size, voltage and number of electric
heaters to be used. Make sure external static applied to unit allows operation within the min­imum and maximum limits shown in table on next page for both cooling and electric heat operation. For optimum blower performance, operate the unit in the .2” to .5” in. W.C. exter­nal static range. In general, the indoor motor speed tap should be as shown in table for the appropriate cooling capacity shown. Always check to make sure proper motor speed tap is connected as units are shipped from the factory connected for high speed operation (Speed Tap 5).

9.0 SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
9.1 Cooling (cooling only or heat pump)
• When the thermostat “calls for cooling,” the circuit between R, G and Y is completed, causing the blower to energize. This circuit also closes the contactor (CC) in the out­door unit starting the compressor (COMP) and outdoor fan motor (OFM).
9.2 Heating (electric heat only)
• When the thermostat “calls for heat,” the circuit between R and W1is completed, and the heater sequencer (HR elements (HE) and the indoor blower motor (IBM) will come on. Units with a second heater sequencer (HR thermostat sub-base or connected to a second stage W
on the furnace board MUST be connected for heating blower operation.

9.3 Heating (heat pump)
• When the thermostat “calls for heat,” the circuits between R and G are completed. Circuit R and B energizes the reversing valve (RV) switching it to the heating position (remains energized as long as system switch is in “heat” position). Circuit R and Y energizes the contactor (CC) starting the outdoor fan motor (OFM), compressor (COMP), and the indoor blower motor (IBM).
• If the room temperature should continue to fall, circuit R and W second-stage heat room thermostat. Circuit R-W The completed circuit will energize supplemental electric heat. Units with a second heater sequencer (HR stat or connected to a third heating stage W the thermostat indicates when supplemental heat is being energized.
9.4 WATT RESTRICTOR
(Heating - Heat Pump)
• Heat pump air handlers with supplemental electric heat above a specific kW depen­dent on unit size and total heater kW are equipped with a patented watt restrictor. Models so equipped are Cabinet Model Size -14 with more than 6 kW Cabinet Model Size -17, -21 and -24 with more than 11 kW Watt restrictor (WR) may directly control a heater element in the heater circuit or may be in the control circuit controlling heater sequencer (HR wiring diagram).
• The watt restrictor (WR) will restrict the amount of supplemental electric heat that can be energized dependent on the heat output of the heat pump (temperature of the air leaving the indoor heat pump coil).
Since the heat output of the heat pump is dependent upon the outdoor air temperature, this control performs the same function as a field installed outdoor thermostat,.
An additional benefit of the watt restrictor is that it can sense a degradation in heat pump performance due to causes other than outdoor temperature and react accordingly to bring on more supplemental electric heat.

9.5 DEFROST SEQUENCE
• For sequence of operation for defrost controls, see outdoor heat pump installation instructions.
• Supplemental heat during defrost can be provided by connecting the purple (PU) pig­tail in the outdoor unit to P on the indoor unit control board. This will complete the cir­cuit between R and W through a set of contacts in the defrost relay (DR) when the outdoor heat pump is in defrost. This circuit, if connected, will temper air being dis­charged from the indoor unit during defrost.
• Defrost heat control (DHC) is wired in series in the circuit described above on units where the supplemental heat is more than would be required to offset the defrost cooling capacity. Defrost heat control (DHC) is provided on the same models described above having watt restrictors.
• When the outdoor unit goes into defrost, the circuit between R and W is completed through a set of contacts on the defrost relay (DR) in series with the contacts on the defrost heat control (DHC). Purple (PU) pigtails on the indoor unit and outdoor units must be connected to make circuit. During defrost, the defrost heat control (DHC) senses the air temperature leaving the indoor unit and cycles the supplemental elec­tric heat to maintain comfort (75° to 85°) air temperature and prevent objectable cold air during defrost. This limits the electric heat output to the minimum required, to con­serve energy and prevent the thermostat from being satisfied with electric heat and preventing completion of the defrost cycle.

Page 26
• For most economical operation, if cold air is not of concern during defrost, the purple wire can be left disconnected. Supplemental heat will only be engergized by a call from second stage room thermostat.
9.6 EMERGENCY HEAT (Heating of Heat Pump)
• If selector switch on thermostat is set to the emergency heat position, the heat pump will be locked out of the heating circuit, and all heating will be electric heat. Jumper should be placed between W2 and E on the thermostat sub-base so that the electric heat control will transfer to the first stage heat on the thermostat. This will allow the indoor blower to cycle on and off with the electric heat when the fan switch is in the auto position.
9.7 ROOM THERMOSTAT
(ANTICIPATOR SETTING)
See instructions with outdoor section, condensing unit or heat pump for recommended room thermostats.
• On units with one electric heat sequencer (HR1) (see wiring diagram on unit), heat anticipator setting should be .16.
• On units with two electric heat sequencers (HR1 & HR2) (see wiring diagram on unit), heat anticipator setting should be .32 if both are connected to same stage on thermo­stat. Setting should be .16 if (HR1 &HR2) are connected to separate stages.
• The thermostat should be mounted 4 to 5 feet above the floor on an inside wall of the living room or a hallway that has good air circulation from the other rooms being con­trolled by the thermostat. It is essential that there be free air circulation at the location of the same average temperature as other rooms being controlled. Movement of air should not be obstructed by furniture, doors, draperies, etc. The thermostat should not be mounted where it will be affected by drafts, hot or cold water pipes or air ducts in walls, radiant heat from fireplace, lamps, the sun, T.V. or an outside wall. See instruction sheet packaged with thermostat for mounting and installation instructions.
NOTE: Some thermostats, particularly solid-state digital types, contain fixed, non­adjustable heat anticipators and adjustment is not permitted.

TO ACCESS AIR FILTER:
1. Locate thumb screws on filter access door and remove.
2. Remove filter access door by tilting it down from the top.
3. Slide filter out.
• Internal filter is NOT used in downflow air configuration.
12.2 INDOOR COIL - DRAIN PAN - DRAIN LINE
Inspect the indoor coil once each year for cleanliness and clean as necessary. It is nec­essary to remove the filter and check the return air side of the coil for debris.
• Generally, the coil can be easily cleaned when it is dry. If the coil is coated with dirt or lint, blow compressed air or nitrogen through the supply side of the coil fins blowing dirt or lint from the return air side of the coil onto the filter or cardboard placed between filter and coil. Be sure lint and dirt is removed from the filter and return air system.
• If the coil is coated with oil or grease, clean it with a mild detergent and water solu­tion. Rinse the coil thoroughly with clear water. Be careful not to splash water exces­sively into unit and system.
• Inspect the drain pan and condensate drain at the same time the cooling coil is checked. Clean the drain pan and condensate drain by removing any foreign matter from the pan. Flush the pan and drain tube with clear water.
• If the drain tube is restricted, it can generally be cleaned with high pressure water. Remove the drain line from the unit away from the pan and coil to clear the drain line.
IMPORTANT: Do not use caustic household drain cleaners in the condensate pan or near the indoor coil. Drain cleaners will quickly damage the indoor coil.
12.3 BLOWER MOTOR AND WHEEL
Inspect the blower motor and wheel for cleanliness. With the system air filter in place, it should be several years before it would become necessary to clean the blower motor and wheel.
• If it becomes necessary to remove the blower assembly from the unit, see instructions on removal and disassembly of motor, blower and heater parts.
• The blower motor and wheel may be cleaned by using a vacuum with a soft brush attachment. Remove grease with a mild solvent such as hot water and detergent. Be careful not to disturb the balance weights (clips) on the blower wheel blades. Do not drop or bend wheel as balance will be affected.
12.4 LUBRICATION
The blower motor sleeve bearings are pre-lubricated by the motor manufacturer and do not have oiling ports. Motor should be run for an indefinite period of time without addi­tional lubrication.
12.5 BLOWER ASSEMBLY REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT
Removing the blower assembly is not required for normal service and maintenance. Removal is necessary for replacement of components such as motor, blower wheel and electric heater(s). After extended use, removal of the blower assembly may become nec­essary for a thorough cleaning of the blower motor and wheel.

• Mark low voltage control wiring (for replacement) where attached to unit control termi­nals on left side of blower housing.
• Remove two screws holding blower assembly to front channel of cabinet and pull blower assembly from cabinet.
• To replace blower assembly, slide blower assembly into blower deck. Make sure blower assembly engages lances in deck properly. If assembly hangs up, check to make sure top and bottom are lined up in proper locations.
• Slide blower assembly to back of cabinet and make sure it is completely engaged.
• Replace two screws holding blower assembly to front channel of cabinet. Take care not to strip screws, just snug into place.
• Replace low voltage control wiring with wire nuts and make sure wiring is to wiring diagram and a good connection has been made.
• Replace field power wiring to terminal block or circuit breaker(s) on control area of blower assembly. Make sure wires are replaced as they were, check wiring diagram if necessary. Tighten supply power wiring securely to terminals lugs.
• Make sure wiring is within cabinet and will not interfere with access door. Make sure proper separation between low voltage control wiring and field power wiring has been maintained.
• Replace blower assembly control access panel before energizing equipment.
12.6 ELECTRIC HEATER REPLACEMENT
With the blower assembly removed, electric heater(s) can be removed and replaced from the blower housing without disturbing the motor or blower wheel.
• Remove both wires from the heater to be removed and remove three screws from outside of blower wrap holding heater brackets to blower wrap.
• One screw is located under the control mounting plate and is a little difficult to get at. A 1/4” box end or open end wrench should be used to remove and replace this screw
• With three screws removed, lift heater element and heater terminals through mount­ing holes in top of blower wrap.
• Lift heater from blower wrap and with terminal end of heater headed for blower cut off and to the outside of the blower side, remove heater.
• To replace the heater element, reverse the above process to replace heater.
• Make sure bend on heater near terminals end is down in place flush or below outlet flanges on blower assembly. Replace screws in heater brackets and tighten.
• Make sure terminals on heater are straight with at least 1/2” clearance to control mounting plate and 1/2” clearance to access panel. Use a straight edge across front flanges on blower assembly to check clearance (bend if necessary for proper clear­ance).
• Replace wiring, make sure connections are tight and are made in accordance with the unit wiring diagram.
12.7 MOTOR REPLACEMENT
With the blower assembly removed, the indoor blower motor can be removed and replaced using the following procedure:
• Remove motor leads from the motor high and low voltage plugs. Note the lead loca­tions for ease of re-assembly.
• Loosen the set screw holding the blower wheel onto the motor shaft. The shaft extends through the blower hub so that a wrench can be used on the extended shaft to break the shaft loose if necessary. Be careful not to damage the shaft. Use a wheel puller on the groove in the hub if necessary.
29
Page 30
• Loosen the bolt holding the wire motor band around the motor shell and pull the motor from the motor mount. Note the motor position in the mount for re-assembly.
• To re-assemble, insert the motor shaft through the hub in the blower wheel and orient the motor to original position.
• For proper motor cooling, it is important that the motor be mounted the same as the original, as far into the blower as practical.
• The dimension from the face of the motor end plate (shaft end) to the first wire on the motor mount band around the shell should be:
1.25” for (-)BHP-17
1.25” for (-)BHP-21
1.25” for (-)BHP-24
1.5” for (-)BHP-25
• With motor held to above position and motor lead plugs oriented to the original posi­tion (the wire connectors on the motor must point straight to the supply air end of the unit and away from the return air [filter] end of the unit). Securely tighten the bolt on the mount band to the motor shell.
• Turn the motor shaft so that the flat on the shaft is located under blower wheel setscrew, and the blower wheel is centered in the blower housing with the same dis­tance on each side between the inlet venturi and the outside of the blower wheel.
• Re-assemble the motor wiring (high and low voltage plugs) into the motor.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT FORCE POWER PLUG INTO THE MOTOR CONNECTOR BACKWARDS. The A.C. power plug to the motor has locking tabs. It has been proven that by applying excessive force to the A.C. cable half of the connector it is possible to force the connector in backwards. It will not seat and “click” properly but will make connection. If A.C. power is applied with the connector reversed the motor will be immediately destroyed.
