LIMITATIONS

The unit should be installed in accordance with all National, State and Local Safety Codes and the limitations listed below:

1.Limitations for the indoor unit, coil, and appropriate accessories must also be observed.

2.The outdoor unit must not be installed with any duct work in the air stream. The outdoor fan is the propeller type and is not designed to operate against any additional external static pressure.

3.The maximum and minimum conditions for operation must be observed to ensure a system that will give maximum performance with minimum service.

SECTION III: UNIT INSTALLATION

LOCATION

Before starting the installation, select and check the suitability of the location for both the indoor and outdoor unit. Observe all limitations and clearance requirements.

The outdoor unit must have sufficient clearance for air entrance to the condenser coil, air discharge, and service access. See Figure 1.

NOTICE

For multiple unit installations, units must be spaced a minimum of 18” (46 cm) apart (coil face to coil face).

If the unit is to be installed on a hot sun exposed roof or a black-topped ground area, the unit should be raised sufficiently above the roof or ground to avoid taking the accumulated layer of hot air into the outdoor unit.

Provide an adequate structural support.

ADD-ON REPLACEMENT/RETROFIT

When this unit is being used as a replacement for an R-410A unit, it is required that the outdoor unit, indoor coil, and metering device all be replaced. The following steps should be performed in order to insure proper system operation and performance. Line-set change out is also recommended.

1.Change-out of the indoor coil to an approved R-410A coil/ con- densing unit combination with the appropriate metering device.

2.Change-out of the line-set when replacing an R-22 unit with an R410-A unit is highly recommended to reduce cross-contamina- tion of oils and refrigerants.

3.If change-out of the line set is not practical, then the following pre- cautions should be taken.

•Inspect the line set for kinks, sharp bends, or other restrictions, and for corrosion.

•Determine if there are any low spots which might be serving as oil traps.

•Flush the line set with a commercially available flush kit to remove as much of the existing oil and contaminants as possible.

•Install a suction line filter-drier to trap any remaining contami- nants, and remove after 50 hours of operation.

4.If the outdoor unit is being replaced due to a compressor burnout, then installation of a 100% activated alumina suction-line filter drier in the suction-line is required, in addition to the factory installed liquid-line drier. Operate the system for 10 hours. Monitor the suction drier pressure drop. If the pressure drop exceeds 3 psig, replace both the suction-line and liquid-line driers. After a total of 10 hours run time where the suction-line pressure drop has not exceeded 3 psig, replace the liquid line drier, and remove the suction-line drier. Never leave a suction-line drier in the system longer than 50 hours of run time.

F) SERIES, 13 & 14.5 SEER - TCG(D, F), GCGD, TCJ(D specifications

Johnson Controls has long been a pioneer in HVAC technology, and their F-Series air conditioning units, specifically the 13 and 14.5 SEER models, have garnered attention for their efficiency and innovative features. The F-Series models TCG(D, F) and TCJ(D, GCGD) stand out in the market, offering a blend of advanced technology, energy efficiency, and user-friendly design.

One of the main features of the TCG and TCJ series is their high Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER), with options of 13 and 14.5 SEER. This high efficiency not only translates to lower energy bills for consumers but also promotes environmental sustainability by reducing carbon footprints. These units are designed to perform optimally in various climates, making them a versatile choice for homeowners and businesses alike.

Incorporating advanced refrigeration technology, the F-Series units utilize scroll compressors that are known for their reliability and efficiency. This type of compressor operates quietly and reduces the chances of breakdown, ensuring longevity and minimal maintenance. Additionally, the variable speed operation allows for better humidity control and comfort, adjusting to the specific cooling needs of the space.

Another key characteristic of Johnson Controls' F-Series is their advanced airflow design. The units are engineered to provide consistent and effective airflow, resulting in even temperature distribution throughout the space. With adjustable louvers, users can easily direct airflow to specific areas, enhancing comfort levels.

The TCG and TCJ models also feature enhanced filtration systems that significantly improve indoor air quality. These systems capture airborne particles and allergens, contributing to a healthier living environment. This focus on air quality is particularly beneficial for families with young children, the elderly, or individuals with respiratory issues.

For ease of use, Johnson Controls has integrated smart technology into their F-Series units. With Wi-Fi connectivity options, users can control their HVAC systems remotely through a smartphone app, allowing for convenient adjustments and energy management. This feature is increasingly important in today’s digital age, where home automation systems are becoming commonplace.

In summary, the Johnson Controls F-Series, particularly the 13 and 14.5 SEER models such as TCG(D, F) and TCJ(D, GCGD), showcase an impressive blend of energy efficiency, advanced technology, and user-centric features. With their reliable performance, superior air quality, and smart technology integration, these air conditioning units represent a solid investment for anyone looking to enhance their indoor comfort while being mindful of energy consumption.
