UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD

When designing and installing ductwork, consider the following:

!CAUTION

UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in damage to unit components.

When connecting ductwork to units, do not drill deeper than 3/4 in. (19 mm) in shaded area shown in Fig. 2 or coil may be damaged.

1.All units should have field-supplied filters or accessory filter rack installed in the return-air side of the unit. Recommended sizes for filters are shown in Table 1.

2.Avoid abrupt duct size increases and reductions. Abrupt change in duct size adversely affects air performance.

IMPORTANT: Use flexible connectors between ductwork and unit to prevent transmission of vibration. Use suitable gaskets to ensure weather tight and airtight seal. When electric heat is installed, use fireproof canvas (or similar heat resistant material) connector between ductwork and unit discharge connection. If flexible duct is used, insert a sheet metal sleeve inside duct. Heat resistant duct connector (or sheet metal sleeve) must extend 24-in. (610 mm) from electric heater element.

3.Size ductwork for cooling air quantity (cfm). The minimum air quantity for proper electric heater operation is listed in Table 2. Heater limit switches may trip at air quantities below those recommended.

4.Seal, insulate, and weatherproof all external ductwork. Seal, insulate and cover with a vapor barrier all ductwork passing through conditioned spaces. Follow latest Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors National Association (SMACNA) and Air Conditioning Contractors Association (ACCA) minimum installation standards for residential heating and air conditioning systems.

5.Secure all ducts to building structure. Flash, weatherproof, and vibration-isolate duct openings in wall or roof according to good construction practices.

WARNING

 

 

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

 

 

Failure to follow this warning could result in personal

 

 

injury or death.

 

 

 

Before performing service or maintenance operations on the

 

 

system, turn off main power to unit and install lockout tag.

 

 

 

 

 

Units are dedicated side supply products. They are not convertible

 

to vertical air supply. A field-supplied plenum must be used to

 

convert to vertical air discharge.

 

Step 6 — Connect Condensate Drain

 

NOTE: When installing condensate drain connection be sure to

 

comply with local codes and restrictions.

 

Unit removes condensate through a 1-3/64 in. (27 mm) ID hole

664B

(using 3/4-in. (19 mm) OD piping or tubing) which is located at

 

the end of the unit. See Fig. 5 for location of condensate

 

connection.

 

 

 

Condensate water can be drained directly onto the roof in rooftop

 

installations (where permitted) or onto a gravel apron in ground

 

 

level installations. Install a field-supplied condensate trap at end of

 

condensate connection to ensure proper drainage. Make sure that

 

the outlet of the trap is at least 1 in. (25 mm) lower than the drain

 

pan condensate connection to prevent the pan from overflowing

 

(See Fig. 3 and 4). When using a gravel apron, make sure it slopes

 

away from the unit.

 

 

 

If the installation requires draining the condensate water away from

 

the unit, install a 2-in. (51 mm) trap using a 3/4-in. (19 mm) OD

 

tubing or pipe. (See Fig. 3 and 4.) Make sure that the outlet of the

 

trap is at least 1 in. (25 mm) lower than the unit drain-pan

 

condensate connection to prevent the pan from overflowing. Prime

 

the trap with water. Connect a drain tube using a minimum of

 

3/4-in. (19 mm) PVC, 3/4-in. (19 mm) CPVC, or 3/4-in. copper

 

pipe (all field supplied). Do not undersize the tube. Pitch the drain

 

tube downward at a slope of at least 1 in. (25 mm) for every 10 ft

 

(3 m) of horizontal run. Be sure to check the drain tube for leaks.

 

Prime trap at the beginning of the cooling season start-up.

 

Allowable glues for condensate trap connection are: Standard

 

ABS, CPVC, or PVC cement..

FAQ

What should I consider when designing and installing ductwork?

When designing and installing ductwork for Bryant 664B heat pump, it is important to follow the provided caution to avoid damage to unit components. Additionally, avoid drilling deeper than 3/4 in.19 mm in the shaded area as shown in the manual.

How should I configure the units for downflow vertical discharge?

For downflow vertical discharge, it is important to follow the provided warning to prevent electrical shock hazards. Use a field-supplied plenum to convert to vertical air discharge, and ensure compliance with local codes and restrictions when installing the condensate drain connection.

What is the recommended size for filters in the unit?

All units should have field-supplied filters or accessory filter rack installed in the return-air side of the unit. The recommended sizes for filters are provided in Table 1 of the manual.
