PRODUCT DESIGN

LOCATION & CLEARANCES

In installations where the unit is installed above ground level and not serviceable from the ground (Example: Roof Top in- stallations) the installer must provide a service platform for the service person with rails or guards in accordance with local codes or ordinances.

*PH15[24-60]M41*

NOTE: Roof overhang should be no more than 36" and provisions made to deflect the warm discharge air out from the overhang.

Minimum clearances are required to avoid air recirculation and keep the unit operating at peak efficiency.

WARNING

TO PREVENT POSSIBLE DAMAGE, THE UNIT SHOULD REMAIN IN AN UPRIGHT POSITION DURING ALL RIGGING AND MOVING OPERATIONS. TO FACILITATE LIFTING AND MOVING IF A CRANE IS USED, PLACE THE UNIT IN AN ADEQUATE CABLE SLIDE.

Refer to Roof curb Installation Instructions for proper curb in- stallation. Curbing must be installed in compliance with the National Roofing Contractors Association Manual.

Lower unit carefully onto roof mounting curb. While rigging unit, center of gravity will cause condenser end to be lower than supply air end.

Roof Curb

*PH15[24-60]M4*

*PH Package Units are designed for outdoor installations only in either residential or light commercial applications.

The connecting ductwork (Supply and Return) can be connected for horizontal discharge airflow. In the down discharge applica- tions, a matching Roof Curb (PGC101/102/103) is recom- mended for horizontal models only.

A return air filter must be installed behind the return air grille(s) or provision must be made for a filter in an accessible location within the return air duct. An internal filter rack (GPH13MFR102 & 103) and an external filter rack (GPGHFR101-103) are also available as accessories. The minimum filter area should not be less than those sizes listed in the Specification Section. Under no circumstances should the unit be operated without return air filters.

A 3/4" - 14 NPT drain connector is provided for removal of con- densate water from the indoor coil. In order to provide proper condensate flow, do not reduce the drain line size.

Refrigerant flow control is achieved by use of TXV. These mod- els use the FasTest Access Fitting System, with a saddle that is either soldered to the suction and liquid lines or is fastened with a locking nut to the access fitting box (core) and then screwed into the saddle. Do not remove the core from the saddle until the refrigerant charge has been removed. Failure to do so could result in property damage or per- sonal injury.

The single phase units use permanent split capacitors (PSC) design compressors. Starting components are therefore not required. A low MFD run capacitor assists the compressor to start and remains in the circuit during operation.

R-410A specifications

Goodman Manufacturing, a well-respected name in the HVAC industry, has made significant advancements with their R-410A refrigerant technology. R-410A, a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC), has positioned itself as a superior alternative to the older R-22 refrigerant, which has been phased out due to its ozone-depleting properties. Goodman’s commitment to energy efficiency and environmental sustainability is well reflected in their use of R-410A in their air conditioning and heat pump systems.

One of the main features of Goodman’s R-410A systems is their exceptional energy efficiency. The R-410A refrigerant operates at a higher pressure than R-22, which allows for better heat transfer and improved cooling capacity. This results in reduced energy consumption and lower utility bills for consumers. Goodman’s air conditioning units designed for use with R-410A are often rated with high Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) ratings, making them an eco-friendly choice for residential and commercial applications.

Another notable technology employed by Goodman is their commitment to reliable performance through advanced compressor designs. Goodman's scroll compressors are optimized for R-410A, ensuring quieter operation and reducing vibration levels. These compressors are known for their efficiency and longevity, making them a favorite among homeowners seeking dependable and durable climate control solutions.

Goodman's multi-stage cooling systems that utilize R-410A offer precise temperature control and enhanced comfort. By controlling the speed of the compressor, Goodman’s units can adjust output according to the heating or cooling demand, maximizing comfort while minimizing energy waste. This adaptability not only enhances indoor air quality but also contributes to a greener environment by using less energy.

Furthermore, Goodman incorporates high-tech diagnostic controls into their systems. These controls provide real-time performance data, allowing homeowners and technicians to monitor system status and troubleshoot issues more easily. By using R-410A combined with these innovative technologies, Goodman emphasizes reliability and user-friendly operation.

In conclusion, Goodman Manufacturing’s use of R-410A refrigerant reflects their dedication to efficiency, reliability, and environmental stewardship in HVAC solutions. The combination of advanced compressor technologies, high energy efficiency, and innovative controls solidifies Goodman’s reputation as a leader in the industry, offering homeowners and businesses the comfort and peace of mind they deserve.
