INSTALLATION

General

Read this entire instruction manual, as well as the instructions supplied in separate equipment, before starting the installation. Observe and follow all warnings, cautions, instructional labels, and tags. Failure to comply with these instructions could result in an unsafe condition and/or premature component failure.

These instructions are intended as a general guide only for use by qualified personnel and do not supersede any national or local codes in any way. The installation must comply with all provincial, state, and local codes as well as the National Electrical Code (U.S.) or Canadian Electrical Code (Canada). Compliance should be determined prior to installation.

4AC16LT condensing units use R410A which is an ozone- friendly HFC refrigerant. The unit must be installed with a matching indoor coil and line set. 4AC16LT units are designed for use in expansion valve (TXV) systems only. A filter drier approved for use with R410A is installed in the unit.

IMPORTANT: This product has been designed and manufactured to meet ENERGY STAR criteria for energy efficiency when matched with appropriate coil components. However, proper refrigerant charge and proper air flow are critical to achieve rated capacity and efficiency. Installation of this product should follow the manufacturer’s refrigerant charging and air flow instructions. Failure to confirm proper charge and airflow may reduce energy efficiency and shorten equipment life.

When servicing or repairing HVAC components, ensure the fasteners are appropriately tightened. Table 1 shows torque values for fasteners.

Slab Mounting

When installing a unit at grade level, install on slab high enough above grade so that water from higher ground will not collect around the unit (See Figure 2).

Roof Mounting

Install unit at a minimum of 4” above surface of the roof. Care must be taken to ensure weight of unit is properly distributed over roof joists and rafters. Either redwood or steel supports are recommended.
