INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WALL MOUNTING INFORMATION
1.Two holes, for the supply and return air openings, must be cut through the wall as shown in Figure 3.
2.On
WARNING
Fire hazard can result if 1/4 inch clearance to combustible materials for supply air duct is not maintained. See Figure 3.
3.Concrete block walls must be thoroughly inspected to insure that they are capable of carrying the weight of the installing unit. See Figure 5.
MOUNTING THE UNIT
1.These units are secured by wall mounting brackets which secure the unit to the outside wall surface at both sides. A bottom mounting bracket is provided for ease of installation.
2.The unit itself is suitable for “0” inch clearance, but the supply air duct flange and the first 3 feet of supply air duct require a minimum of 1/4 inch clearance to combustible material. If a combustible wall, use a minimum of
WARNING
Failure to provide the 1/4 inch clearance between the supply duct and a combustible surface for the first 3 feet of duct can result in fire.
3.Locate and mark lag bolt locations and bottom mounting bracket location. See Figure 5.
4.Mount bottom mounting bracket.
5.Hook top rain flashing under back bend of top. Top rain flashing is shipped secured to the right side of the back.
6.Position unit in opening and secure with 5/16 lag bolts; use 7/8 inch diameter flat washers on the lag bolts.
7.Secure rain flashing to wall and caulk across entire length of top. See Figure 3.
8.For additional mounting rigidity, the return air and supply air frames or collars can be drilled and screwed or welded to the structural wall itself (depending upon wall construction). Be sure to observe required clearance if combustible wall.
9.On side by side installations, maintain a minimum of 20 inches clearance on left side to allow access to heat strips and control panel and to allow proper airflow to the outdoor coil. Additional clearance may be required to meet local or national codes.
TYPICAL INSTALLATIONS

WIRING — MAIN POWER
Refer to the unit rating plate for wire sizing information and maximum fuse or “HACR" type circuit breaker size. Each outdoor unit is marked with a “Minimum Circuit Ampacity”. This means that the field wiring used must be sized to carry that amount of current. Depending on the installed KW of electric heat, there may be two field power circuits required. If this is the case, the unit serial plate will so indicate. All models are suitable only for connection with copper wire. Each unit and/or wiring diagram will be marked “Use Copper Conductors Only”. These instructions must be adhered to. Refer to the National Electrical Code (NEC) for complete current carrying capacity data on the various insulation grades of wiring material. All wiring must conform to NEC and all local codes.
The electrical data lists fuse and wire sizes (75ºC copper) for all models, including the most commonly used heater sizes. Also shown are the number of field power circuits required for the various models with heaters.
The unit rating plate lists a “Maximum Time Delay Relay Fuse” or “HACR" type circuit breaker that is to be used with the equipment. The correct size must be used for proper circuit protection and also to assure that there will be no nuisance tripping due to the momentary high starting current of the compressor motor.
