Unit Location — The Q4 series heat pump is designed only for outdoor installations. Choosing the location of the unit should be based on minimizing the length of the supply and return ducts. Consideration should also be given to availability of electric power, service access, noise, and shade. Sufficient clearance for unobstructed airflow through the outdoor coil must be maintained in order to achieve rated performance See Figure 4 for minimum clearances to obstructions.
Air Filters — A suitable air filter must be installed in the return air system. Air filter pressure drop must not exceed 0.08 inches w.c. at 300 fpm.
Condensate Drain — Condensate is removed from the unit through the 3/4" female pipe fitting located on the front side of the unit. (See Figure 5.) Install a 2 inch condensate trap in the drain line of the same size and prime with water. When connecting rigid drain line, hold the female fitting with a wrench to prevent twisting. Do not over tighten! Refer to local codes and restrictions for proper condensate disposal requirements.
