4.Secure the chassis to the wall sleeve using three screws on each side of the chassis to ensure a proper seal between the chassis and the wall sleeve. The screws are supplied in a plastic bag attached to the power cord.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

1.The unit is equipped with a rubber grommet mounted com- pressor. These grommets are factory set and require no ad- justment.

2.If a standard subbase is used, be sure the right hand subbase cover is removed before the chassis is installed in the sleeve.

3.On 230V,30A units installed with an existing subbase, use the subbase cover extension kit.

4.Check the indoor and outdoor grilles for obstructions to air flow. The unit must be located where curtains, furniture, trees, or other objects do not block the air flow to and from the unit. If air is obstructed and/or deflected back into the unit, the air conditioner compressor may cycle on and off rapidly. This could damage the compressor or possibly void the warranty.

			WARNING
WARNING			WARNING

TO AVOID PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH DUE TO ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DO NOT SERVICE THIS UNIT WITHOUT FIRST SHUTTING OFF POWER TO THE UNIT FROM THE CIRCUIT BREAKER AND/OR REMOVING

THE UNIT CORD SET PLUG FROM THE WALL OUTLET.

CAUTION

TO AVOID PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INURY OR DEATH DUE TO ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD WITH THIS UNIT.

CAUTION

TO AVOID THE RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INURY OR FIRE, USE ONLY COPPER CONDUCTORS.

CAUTION

TO AVOID THE RISK OF PERSONAL INURY, WIRING TO THE UNIT MUST BE PROPERLY POLARIZED AND GROUNDED.

Cord connection to a wall socket is not permitted for 265-volt units. All 265-volt units must be hard wired using the hard wire kit or make use of the plug-in receptacle in the standard subbase.

230/208V and 115V units are equipped with LCDI or AFCI power cords and can open the electrical circuit to the unit. In the event the unit does not operate, check the reset button located on or near the head of the power cord as part of the normal trouble- shooting procedure.

THIS AIR CONDITIONER IS NOT MEANT TO PROVIDE UNATTENDED COOLING OR LIFE SUPPORT FOR PERSONS OR ANIMALS WHO ARE UNABLE TO REACT TO THE FAILURE OF THIS PRODUCT.

THE FAILURE OF AN UNATTENDED AIR CONDITIONER MAY RESULT IN EXTREME HEAT IN THE CONDITIONED SPACE CAUSING OVERHEATING OR DEATH OF PERSONS OR ANIMALS.

PRECAUTIONS MUST BE TAKEN TO WARN OFF OR GUARD AGAINST SUCH AN OCCURRENCE.

PTAC WIRE HARNESS KIT (PWHK01C)

See PTAC Wire Harness Kit Installation Instructions for proper wire orientation and location for low voltage wiring.

HEATERLESS UNITS

If a heaterless unit is ordered, field provisions must be made for adding supplemental heat. Refer to the Installation Instructions supplied with the heater kit for a complete description of the installation procedures. All 208/230 volt heaterless units are shipped with a 15 Amp power cord and all heaterless 265 volt units are shipped with a 20 Amp power cord.

When adding a heater kit to a heatless unit, the power cord supplied with the heater kit must be used in place of the power cord supplied with the unit. Table 1 specifies power cord rating requirements for the various heater kits.

EKTC, EKTH specifications

The Heat Controller EKTH and EKTC models are advanced heating solutions designed to provide energy-efficient climate control for residential and commercial spaces. These heat pumps combine sophisticated technology with user-friendly features to create a comfortable environment regardless of the outside temperature.

One of the standout features of both the EKTH and EKTC units is their inverter technology. This technology allows the compressor to operate at variable speeds, adjusting its output according to the current heating requirements. As a result, these systems provide consistent heating while consuming less energy compared to traditional fixed-speed units. The inverter technology not only enhances efficiency but also minimizes noise levels, making these heat controllers suitable for quiet environments.

Another significant characteristic of the EKTH and EKTC models is their all-weather performance. These heat pumps are engineered to perform effectively in a wide range of temperatures, ensuring reliable heating even in extremely cold conditions. With advanced defrost technology, these units can operate efficiently without freezing, maintaining optimal performance year-round.

User convenience is also a priority with the EKTH and EKTC systems. Both models feature intuitive digital controls that enable users to set their desired temperature comfortably. Additionally, many versions include Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing for remote access and control through a smartphone app. This feature is ideal for individuals seeking to monitor or adjust their heating systems while away from home.

Energy efficiency is a key aspect of the EKTH and EKTC heat controllers. They are designed with high Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratios (SEER) and Heating Seasonal Performance Factors (HSPF), which indicate their effectiveness in converting energy into heated air. Energy Star certification is often achieved by these models, making them attractive options for energy-conscious consumers looking to reduce their carbon footprint.

With a compact design, the EKTH and EKTC units can be easily integrated into various settings without taking up much space, allowing for flexible installation options. The sleek aesthetic also ensures that they blend seamlessly with interior decor.

In summary, the Heat Controller EKTH and EKTC models represent a cutting-edge solution to heating needs. They combine inverter technology, all-weather performance, user-friendly features, and high energy efficiency to provide reliable and comfortable heating solutions for any environment. Whether for a home or a commercial space, these heat pumps deliver quality and convenience in climate control.
