Normally, the unit is installed outdoors either on the roof or ground, where practical. In normal roof installation, the unit is placed on an angle iron frame, and where required in some instances, isolated from the frame with rubber, cork or spdng mounts. These mounts are to help eliminate vibration and noise. Ground installation is basically the same for both
I.D. diameter and be properly graded. Loosen the compressor mounting bolt_tO ensure that the compressor is resting on the rubber grommets and not on the metal sleeves.
The actual amount of total refrigerant charge for each installation may have to be adjusted to insure that unit performance characteristics (compressor electrical current draw, suction and discharge pressures) are consistent with those given in the application tables for the applicable ambient conditions.
It is extremely important that a condensate "P" trap be installed in the drain line below the bottom of the unit, as shown in the sketch below.
Apart from ensuring proper drainage, the condensate trap will prevent the hot and humid outside air
from being drawn into the conditioned space through the drain line, thus reducing cooling and dehumidification of the unit.
