and distance.
WARNING
Improper installation of the air handler can result in
personal injury or death.
Do not allow external combustion products or other
contaminants to enter the return air system or to be
mixed with air that will be supplied to the living space.
Use sheet metal screws and joint tape or duct mastic
to seal return air system to air handler. In platform
installations, the air handler should be sealed airtight
to the return air plenum. A door must never be used as
a portion of the return air duct system. The base must
provide a stable support and an airtight seal to the air
handler. Allow absolutely no sagging, cracks, gaps, etc.
For no reason should return and supply air duct systems
ever be connected to or from other heating devices
such as a replace or stove, etc. Fire, explosion, carbon
monoxide poisoning, personal injury and/or property
damage could result.

Brazing Connections
Polyolester (POE) oils used with HFC-410A refrigerant
absorb moisture very quickly. It is very important that the
refrigerant system be kept closed as much as possible.
DO NOT remove line set caps or service valve stub
caps until you are ready to make connections.
WARNING
Danger of re. Bleeding the refrigerant
charge from only the high side may
result in pressurization of the low side
shell and suction tubing. Application
of a brazing torch to a pressurized
system may result in ignition of the
refrigerant and oil mixture. Check the
high and low pressures before
applying heat.
WARNING
Danger of explosion!
Can cause equipment damage, injury, or
death.
When using a high pressure gas such as
nitrogen to pressurize a refrigeration or
air conditioning system, use a regulator
that can control the pressure down to 1
or 2 psig (6.9 to 13.8 kPa).
WARNING
Brazing alloys and ux contain materials which are
hazardous to your health.
Avoid breathing vapors or fumes from brazing
operations. Perform operations only in well ventilated
areas.
Wear gloves and protective goggles or face shield to
protect against burns.
Wash hands with soap and water after handling brazing
alloys and ux.
CAUTION
To prevent the build-up of high levels of nitrogen when
purging, it must be done in a well-ventilated area.
Purge low-pressure nitrogen (1 to 2 psig) through
the refrigerant piping during brazing. This will help to
prevent oxidation and the introduction of moisture into
the system.

Table 4. Refrigerant Connections and Line Set
Requirements
Refrigerant lines must be connected by a qualied
technician in accordance with established procedures.
Refrigerant lines must be clean, dehydrated, refrigerant-
grade copper lines. Air handler coils should be installed
only with specied line sizes for approved system
combinations.
Handle refrigerant lines gently during installation. Sharp
bends or kinking in the lines will cause a restriction.
Do not remove sealing caps from the refrigerant piping

Best Practices
The following best practices are recommended for the
condensate removal process:
• Main and overow drain lines should NOT be smaller
than both drain connections at drain pan.
• Overow drain line should run to an area where
homeowner will notice drainage.

507746-01 Issue 1821 Page 13 of 39
• It is recommended that the overow drain line be
vented and a trap installed. Refer to local codes.
• Condensate drain lines must be congured or provided
with a cleanout to permit the clearing of blockages and
for maintenance without requiring the drain line to be
cut.
Inspecting and Replacing Filters
Filter access door must be in place during unit operation.
Excessive warm air entering the unit from unconditioned
space may result in water blow-off problems.
IMPORTANT
Filters may be duct-mounted or installed in the cabinet. A
lter is installed at the factory. Note that lter access door
ts over access panel. Air will leak if the access panel is
placed over the lter door.
Filters should be inspected monthly and must be cleaned
or replaced when dirty to assure proper furnace operation.
To replace lter:
1. Loosen the thumbscrews holding the lter panel in
place.
2. Slide the lter out of the guides on either side of
cabinet.
3. Insert new lter.
4. Replace panel.
See Table 5 for replacement lter sizes.
BCE7S Filter Size – in. (mm)
24, 30, 36 20 x 20 x 1 (508 x 508 x 25)
42, 48, 60 20 x 24 x 1 (508 x 610 x 25)
Table 5. Filter Dimensions
Sealing the Unit
There must be an airtight seal between the bottom of
the air handler and the return air plenum. Use berglass
sealing strips, caulking, or equivalent sealing method
between the plenum and the air handler cabinet to
ensure a tight seal. Return air must not be drawn from a
room where this air handler or any gas-fueled appliance
(i.e., water heater), or carbon monoxide-producing
device (i.e., wood replace) is installed.
WARNING
Seal the unit so that warm air is not allowed into the cabinet.
Warm air introduces moisture, which results in water blow-
off problems. This is especially important when the unit is
installed in an unconditioned area.
Make sure the liquid line and suction line entry points are
sealed with either the provided exible elastomeric thermal
insulation, or eld provided material (e.g. Armaex,
Permagum or equivalent). Any of the previously mentioned
materials may be used to seal around the main and
auxiliary drains, and around open areas of electrical inlets.
Field Control Wiring
Wiring must conform to the current National Electric Code
ANSI/NFPA No. 70, or Canadian Electric Code Part I, CSA
Standard C22.1, and local building codes. Refer to following
wiring diagrams. See unit nameplate for minimum circuit
ampacity and maximum over-current protection size.
Electric Shock Hazard.
Can cause injury or death.
Foil-faced insulation has conductive characteristics
similar to metal. Be sure there are no electrical
connections within a ½ʺ of the insulation. If the foil-faced
insulation comes in contact with electrical voltage, the
foil could provide a path for current to pass through to
the outer metal cabinet. While the current produced
may not be enough to trip existing electrical safety
devices (e.g. fuses or circuit breakers), the current can
be enough to cause an electric shock hazard that could
cause personal injury or death.
WARNING
Run 24V Class II wiring only through specied low
voltage opening. Run line voltage wiring only through
specied high voltage opening. Do not combine voltage
in one opening.
WARNING
Select the proper supply circuit conductors in accordance
with tables 310-16 and 310-17 in the National Electric
Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70 or tables 1 through 4 in the
Canadian Electric Code, Part I, CSA Standard C22.1.
Separate openings have been provided for 24V low
voltage and line voltage. Refer to the dimension illustration
of specic location.
Use copper conductors only.

menu options: No change (displaying error history)
remains in Error Code Recall mode; solid “≡” exits
Error Code Recall mode; and solid “c” clears the
error history. Must press button while ashing “c” is
displayed to clear error codes.
3. When the solid “-” is displayed, the control enters
the applicable mode. Field conguration mode menu
options: Solid “C” starts pressure switch calibration;
blinking “-” exits current active mode.
Jumpers
Jumpers are used for non-communicating mode only.
1. Humidication — Controls the status of H terminal
on the thermostat block. Congurations are as follows:
• If jumper is installed in SMART Humidication
position (Default), H terminal is active if heat
demand is present and indoor blower is running.
• If jumper is installed in AUTO Humidication
position, H terminal is energized whenever indoor
blower is running.
2. Blower Only CFM — Used to select Indoor blower
CFM for continuous operation.
3. Heat — Used to select Indoor blower CFM for electrical
heat by placing the jumper in proper position. Actual
CFM values for different air handler sizes are shown in
Targeted CFM tables starting on Page 25.
4. Cool — Used to select cooling indoor blower CFM
by placing the jumper in proper position. Actual CFM
values for different air handler sizes are shown in
Targeted CFM tables starting on Page 25.
5. Adjust - Used to select the indoor blower CFM
adjustment value by placing the jumper in appropriate
position.
• If NORM is selected, indoor blower runs at normal
speeds.
• If + is selected, indoor blower runs at approximately
10% higher speed than NORM setting.
• If - is selected, indoor blower runs at approximately
10% lower speed than NORM setting.
If the jumper is missing, the Air Handler Control will
activate the Conguration Jumper is Missing alarm
and will automatically use the default factory setting
in Table 11. See Figure 19 for jumper congurations.
Actual CFM values for different air handler sizes are
shown in Targeted CFM tables starting on Page 25.
6. Delay — Indoor blower cooling prole, delay for
cooling and heat pump operations.
• For heat pump heating operation only delay
proles 1 and 2 are applicable. If proles 3 or 4
have been selected, heat pump operation will use
prole 1 only.
• For heat pump cooling operation all 4 proles are
operational.
If the jumper is missing, the Air Handler Control will
activate the Conguration Jumper is Missing alarm
and will automatically use the default factory setting
in Table 11. See Figure 19 for jumper congurations.
