Ductwork Recommendations

The unit’s airflow configuration varies dependent on the model and options ordered. A one-inch duct collar is provided on units with a ducted return and/or discharge to attach ductwork to the unit.

The Trane Company recommends using galvanized sheet metal ductwork with fan-coil and cabinet heater units. Slide the sheetmetal duct over the duct collar flange of the unit, seal the joint and fasten with sheetmetal screws.

Note: Do not run screws through the removable front panel on con- cealed units.

Install all air ducts according to National Fire Protection Association standards for the Installation of Air Conditioning and Ventilating Systems (NFPA 90A and 90B).

Follow the general recommendations listed below when installing ductwork for the unit.

·Discharge ductwork should run in a straight line, unchanged in size or direction, for a minimum equivalent distance of 3 fan diameters from the unit (approximately 20 inches).

·When making duct turns and transitions avoid sharp turns and use proportional splits, turning vanes, and air scoops when necessary.

·When possible, construct, and orient supply ductwork turns in the same direction as the fan rotation.
