Ratings – Each unit must meet the following specica-
tions:
ARI rating of _________BTU/h cooling (and ________BTU/
h reverse cycle heating with a COP of ________at 47 °F
O.D.)
Electric resistance heat of _________ BTU/h. Total Amp
draw must be of _________ and _________ Watts at ____
_____ volts.
The EER must be a minimum of _________ EER.
Unit Chassis — Each unit must be slide-out design, ready
for installation into closet space. Unit must t into closet
space not to exceed 24” x 24” with overhead duct connec-
tions designed to .25 ESP. Unit must be tested for confor-
mance to ASTME water inltration specication ASTME
331-86, which ensures no water inltration when tested at
8" rain per hour at 63 mph wind for 15 min.
Filter — Filter provided with the unit. Installer must pro-
vide for easy accessibility.
Heat Pumps — Each unit must include a changeover ther-
mostat that senses an outside coil switch-over tempera-
ture of 25°F, lock-open refrigerant-reversing valve during
heat pump operation, temperature-activated defrost drain
and automatic emergency heat operation to override the
heat pump’s change-over thermostat and bring on electric
resistance heaters in the event of a sealed-system failure.
Compressor — The compressor must be hermetically
sealed, internally isolated, rotary-type and permanently
mounted on rubber isolators. No removal or adjustment
of compressor hold-down bolts is to be required during
installation.
Unit Controls — The unit must be controlled by a thermo-
stat. Other unit controls must include a concealed ventila-
tion control to allow the introduction of ltered air into the
room, a concealed fan mode switch to allow the owner to
preset for either continuous fan or thermostatically cycled
fan operation. Additionally, the following controls are to be
included as standard on all units:
Compressor restart delay
Random restart circuit
Front desk control
Evaporator coil freeze protection

GUIDE SPECIFICATIONS
Fan delay
Low ambient lock-out
Evaporator/Condenser Fans — Direct drive with a perma-
nent split capacitor, two-speed motor. Must have a condenser
fan and separate indoor evaporator motor. Condenser fan
must be propeller type and evaporator fan must be blower
type.
Coils — Unit’s coils must have copper tubing expanded
into rippled-edge louvered aluminum ns.
Discharge and Return Air — A unit must be able to dis-
charge air through an overhead duct system with an exter-
nal static pressure capability of 0.35" for 9,000 and 12,000
unit sizes and 0.40" for 18,000 and 24,000 unit sizes. The
return air must be capable of a free return at the unit or a
ducted return.
Warranty — Limited One-Year Warranty; Second-
through Fifth-Year Limited Replacement Compressor
Warranty
The Wall Sleeve — The wall sleeve must be of industry-ac-
cepted dimensions: from 21” [d] to 28” [d] (dependent upon
wall width, from 5”to 15”) x 22” [w] x 44” [h] and constructed
of insulated galvanized steel for corrosion resistance. Sleeve
must be shipped with weather-resistant rear closure panel
installed.
Condensate Drain — The unit must have a condensate
draining system. A vertical pipe connection in the base pan
is connected to the evaporator drain pan via a drain line.
Condensate passes from the unit to a catch tray, located in
the wall sleeve, and exits the sleeve through a ¾” male NPT
tting. (This allows piping to be done during construction
stage).
The unit must also have a secondary condensate draining
system for overow. If the primary condensate draining
system becomes clogged, water will be directed from the
catch tray, through the sleeve, to the outside of the build-
ing. Any external water source (rain, sleet, etc.) entering
the sleeve will also be diverted to the building’s exterior.
Outdoor Grilles — Must be architecturally extruded and
made of anodized aluminum (AGKV***A). All other grilles
must be submitted to our company for feasibility, airow
characteristics and compliance with U.L. regulations, where
necessary.
Hydronic Heat Units — Required for heating functions in-
