INSTALLATION
Step 1 — Check Equipment and Jobsite
UNPACK UNIT — Move to final location. Slide
from carton taking special care not to damage serv
ice valves or grilles.
INSPECT EQUIPMENT — File claim with ship
ping company if damaged or incomplete.
COMPLETE OR CONSIDER SYSTEM RE
QUIREMENTS before installation:
Consult local building codes and National Elec
trical Code (NEC) for special installation
requirements.
When installing, allow sufficient space for airflow
clearance, wiring, refrigerant piping and service.
Maintain a minimum of 4 ft clearance from obstruc
tions above and 18 in. on sides of unit. Maintain a
distance of 24 in. between condensing units. Posi
tion so water from roof or eaves does not flow
directly on unit.
Install on a solid, level mounting pad. It is not
necessary to attach unit to pad but if desired or
required by local code, position tiedown bolts in
pad. Fasten unit to pad using 2 holes provided in unit
base. See Fig. 1.
