tions with add−on cooling coils require field−fabricated tran- sitions that provide at least 6 inches of clearance for the CBWMV unit’s inlet/outlet water lines. See figure 2 for ex- amples.

*CBWMV units must not be installed horizontally on the front or back of the unit.

Figure 2

Units may be horizontally installed in either attic or crawl space.

Return Air Plenum CAUTION

CBWMV series units are shipped with an antifreeze thermostat to prevent the water coil from freezing. The freezestat is installed at the factory but must be field wired (see figures 12 and 13). Do not bypass this feature when you install or run the unit.

Manual background CAUTION

Use a drain pan for installations over finished living areas.

Either suspend the unit from the roof rafters or floor joists or mount on a platform. The CBWMV unit must be level and well supported.

NOTE − 1/2 hp and 1 hp blower motors are equipped with three flexible legs and one rigid leg. The rigid leg is equipped with a shipping bolt and a flat white plastic wash- er (rather than the rubber mounting grommet used with a flexible mounting leg). The bolt and washer must be re- moved before the air handler is placed into operation. After the bolt and washer have been removed, the rigid leg will not touch the blower housing.

Duct System

Use industry-approved standards (such as those pub- lished by Air Conditioning Contractors of America or Amer- ican Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers) to size and install the supply and return air duct system. This will result in a quiet and low-static system that has uniform air distribution.

NOTE − Do not operate the air handler with an external static pressure that exceeds 0.8 inches w.c. Higher exter- nal static pressures may cause erratic operation.

Return Air Plenum

Manual background IMPORTANT

Return air must not be drawn from a room where any fossil fuel appliance (ie., a water heater) is installed.

When return air is drawn from a room, a negative pres- sure is created in the room. If a fossil fuel appliance is op- erating in a room with negative pressure, the flue prod- ucts can be pulled back down the vent pipe and into the room. This reverse flow of the flue gas may result in in- complete combustion and the formation of carbon mon- oxide gas. This toxic gas might then be distributed throughout the house by the air handler duct system.
