Unit Placement
CAUTION
In order to avoid injury, take proper precaution when lift- ing heavy objects.
See Unit Dimensions on page 3 for sizing mounting slab, platforms or supports. Refer to figure 4 for mandatory installation clearance requirements.
POSITIONING CONSIDERATIONS
Consider the following when positioning the unit:
SSome localities are adopting sound ordinances based on the unit’s sound level registered from the adjacent property, not from the installation property. Install the unit as far as possible from the property line.
SWhen possible, do not install the unit directly outside a window. Glass has a very high level of sound transmission. For proper placement of unit in relation to a window see the provided illustration in figure 5, detail A.
PLACING UNIT ON SLAB
When installing unit at grade level, the top of the slab should be high enough above grade so that water from higher ground will not collect around the unit. The slab should have a slope tolerance as described in figure 5, detail B.
NOTE If necessary for stability, anchor unit to slab as described in figure 5, detail D.
ELEVATING THE UNIT
Units are outfitted with elongated support feet as illustrated in figure 5, detail C.
If additional elevation is necessary, raise the unit by extending the height of the unit support feet. This may be achieved by using a 2 inch (50.8mm) Schedule 40 female threaded adapter.
The specified coupling will fit snuggly into the recessed portion of the feet. Use additional 2−inch (50.8mm) Schedule 40 male threaded adaptors which can be threaded into the female threaded adaptors to make additional adjustments to the level of the unit.
NOTE eep the height of ext enders short enough to
ensure a sturdy installation. If it is necessary to extend further, consider a different type of field−fabricated framework that is sturdy enough for greater heights.
