A. General

The 583B units (see Fig. 1) are fully self-contained, combination Category I gas heating/electric cooling units designed for outdoor installation. See Fig. 6 and 7 for unit dimensions. All unit sizes have discharge openings for both horizontal and downflow con- figurations, and are factory shipped with all downflow duct openings covered . Units may be installed either on a rooftop, cement slab, or directly on the ground (if permitted by local codes). See Figs. 4 and 5 for roof curb dimensions.

Models with an N in the thirteenth position of the model number are dedicated Low NOx units designed for California installation. These models meet the California maximum oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions requirements of 40 nanograms/joule or less as shipped from the factory and must be installed in California Air Quality Management Districts where a Low NOx rule exists.

RECEIVING AND INSTALLATION I. CHECK EQUIPMENT

IDENTIFY UNIT — The unit model number and serial number are stamped on unit identification plate. Check this information against shipping papers and job data.

INSPECT SHIPMENT — Inspect for shipping damage while unit is still on shipping pallet. If unit appears to be damaged or is torn loose from its anchorage, have it examined by transportation inspectors before removal. Forward claim papers directly to transportation company. Manufacturer is not responsible for any damage incurred in transit.

Check all items against shipping list. Immediately notify the nearest Bryant Air Conditioning office if any item is missing. To prevent loss or damage, leave all parts in original packages until installation.

II. PROVIDE UNIT SUPPORT

ROOF CURB — Install accessory roof curb in accordance with instructions shipped with curb. See Figs. 4 and 5 and Table 1 for roof curb dimensions. Install insulation, cant strips, roofing, and flashing. Ductwork must be attached to curb.

IMPORTANT: The gasketing of the unit to the roof curb is critical for a watertight seal. Install gasketing material supplied with the roof curb. Improperly applied gasketing can also result in air leaks and poor unit performance.

Curb should be level to within 1 /4 inch. This is necessary for unit drain to function properly. Refer to accessory roof curb installation instructions for additional information as required (see Fig. 2).

Fig. 3—Slab Mounting Details

SLAB MOUNT — Place the unit on a solid, level concrete pad that is a minimum of 4 in. thick with 2 in. above grade. The slab should be flush on the compressor end of the unit (to allow condensate drain installation) and should extend 2 in. on the three remaining sides of the unit. See Fig. 3. Do not secure the unit to the slab except when required by local codes.

GROUND MOUNT — The unit may be installed either on a slab or placed directly on the ground if local codes permit. Place the unit on level ground prepared with gravel for condensate dis- charge.

III. FIELD FABRICATE DUCTWORK

Secure all ducts to roof curb and building structure on vertical discharge units. Do not connect ductwork to unit. For horizontal applications, unit is provided with flanges on the horizontal openings. All ductwork should be secured to the flanges. Insulate and weatherproof all external ductwork, joints, and roof openings with counter flashing and mastic in accordance with applicable codes.

Ducts passing through an unconditioned space must be insulated and covered with a vapor barrier.

If a plenum return is used on a vertical unit, the return should be ducted through the roof deck to comply with applicable fire codes. A minimum clearance is not required around ductwork. Cabinet return-air static shall not exceed -.25 in. wg.

583B specifications

The Bryant 583B is an advanced, high-efficiency gas furnace designed to provide exceptional heating performance and reliability. With a focus on comfort and energy efficiency, this model stands out in the residential heating market.

One of the main features of the Bryant 583B is its impressive Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating of up to 95%. This means that the furnace converts up to 95% of the fuel it consumes into usable heat. As a result, homeowners can expect lower energy bills and reduced environmental impact due to decreased carbon emissions.

The Bryant 583B is equipped with a modulating gas valve that allows for precise control of the heating output. This technology enables the furnace to adjust its running capacity based on the heating demands of your home. Instead of operating at a single, high setting, the furnace runs at the required level to maintain the desired temperature, delivering consistent comfort while maximizing efficiency.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the 583B is its two-stage operation. This feature allows the furnace to operate at a lower stage for mild weather, which reduces energy consumption and minimizes noise levels. During colder conditions, it can switch to a high stage for increased heating capacity. This dual approach not only enhances comfort but also prolongs the lifespan of the unit by reducing wear and tear.

In terms of construction, the Bryant 583B is built with durable materials and a robust cabinet, which ensures longevity and resilience over time. It also comes with a quiet operation feature, minimizing disturbances while maintaining a comfortable indoor environment.

The unit is compatible with Bryant's advanced communication technology, enabling seamless integration with smart thermostats. This addition allows homeowners to monitor and control their furnace remotely, optimizing energy usage even further.

In summary, the Bryant 583B furnishes an outstanding combination of efficiency, reliability, and user-friendly technologies. Its modulating gas valve, two-stage operation, and high AFUE rating collectively ensure that customers enjoy a comfortable home environment while significantly reducing energy costs. As energy-conscious choices become increasingly crucial, the Bryant 583B stands ready to meet the challenges of modern heating needs.
