Plumbing

CAUTION Do not over-tighten drain fitting or damage to the

threads could occur.

Condensate from the cooling coil is automatically evaporated from the condensate pan located in the condensing unit housing on self-contained models.

Each unit is equipped with a floor drain located in the right rear corner of the cabinet. The drain can be plumbed to an external floor drain by connecting to the 3/4” NPT thread connection on the side, or the 1” NPS thread connection out the

bottom, of the unit. Both drain ports come plugged from the factory and can be removed if needed.

NOTE: Remote units require evaporator condensate to be plumbed to an external drain.

Electrical

The cabinet must be connected to a separately fused power source (see Electrical Specification Plate affixed to unit) in accordance with National and Local electrical codes.

Self-contained Perlick units come equipped with a NEMA 5-15P 90° plug with an 8’ cord extending beyond the rear of the cabinet. The electrical outlet must be flush with, or recessed into, the wall surface.

NOTE: Never use an extension cord to extend the power cord to the electrical receptacle.

CAUTION If unit has been laid on its back or sides, place unit upright and allow minimum of 24 hours before

connecting power. Failure to follow this procedure may damage the compressor and void the warranty.

CAUTION Do not attempt to operate the equipment on any other power source than that listed on the

Electrical Specification Plate attached to the unit.
