SHIPPING DAMAGE
Upon receipt of equipment, the carton should be
checked for external signs of shipping damage. The
skid must remain attached to the unit until the unit is
ready for installation. If damage is found, the receiving
party must contact the last carrier immediately,
preferably in writing, requesting inspection by the
carrier’s agent.
UNIT REMOVAL FROM SKID
FIGURE 3
REMOVAL OF UNIT FROM SKID
It is recommended that the unit not be removed from the
skid with a forklift since the air seal under the unit could
be damaged. See Figure 2.
The shipping brackets on each side of the unit must be
removed and discarded. See Figure 3-A. The return air
grille panel can be removed to provide a place to hold
the unit. The unit can be slid forward on the skid until
the front wheels hang over the edge of the skid. See
Figure 3-B. The unit can be tipped forward and slid
down the edge of the skid until the front wheels touch
the ground. See Figure 3-C. The wheels will not roll.
They are shipped from the factory locked so they will
not roll. The back of the skid will have to be held down
to keep it from tipping up. The skid can be slid out from
under the unit. The unit can then be set upright.
WARNING
This unit is heavy and requires more than one
person to handle and remove from the skid.
Check unit wheels to ensure that wheels are
locked before removing from skid. Extreme
caution must be taken to prevent injury to
personnel and damage to the unit.

HANDLING UNIT AFTER REMOVAL
FROM SKID
The unit will have to be turned sideways and removed
from the skid to fit through a 36" doorway. If the door
height allows, the unit can be slid sideways through the
door.
If the unit can not be slid through the door, then the unit
will have to be put on a cart and tipped down to roll
through the door. It is recommended that an appliance
cart by used with a strap to hold the unit on the cart.
The wheels of the unit must be locked. If the wheels
were allowed to roll, the unit could roll off the cart. The
unit should always be carted from the left side. This is
the side where the compressor is located. See Figure 4.
The blade of the appliance cart should be slid under the
wheels of the unit. The strap of the appliance cart
should be placed around the unit and strapped tightly.
Help will be required to tip the unit back onto the cart.
The unit can be leaned far enough back to be rolled
through the door. Be careful when setting the unit back
up to keep from damaging the unit.
GENERAL
The equipment covered in this manual is to be installed
by trained, experienced service and installation
technicians.
The unit is designed for use with or without duct work.
For use without duct work, Plenum Box QPB42 is
recommended.
These instructions explain the recommended method to
install the air cooled self-contained unit and the
electrical wiring connections to the unit.
These instructions and any instructions packaged with
any separate equipment required to make up the entire
air conditioning system should be carefully read before
beginning the installation. Note particularly “Start
Procedure” and any tags and/or labels attached to the
equipment.
While these instructions are intended as a general
recommended guide, they do not supersede any national
and/or local codes in any way. Authorities having
jurisdiction should be consulted before the installation is
made. See Page 3 for information on codes and
standards.
Size of unit for a proposed installation should be based
on heat loss calculation made according to methods of
Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA). The
air duct should be installed in accordance with the
Standards of the National Fire Protection Systems of
Other Than Residence Type, NFPA No. 90A, and
Residence Type Warm Air Heating and Air
Conditioning Systems, NFPA No. 90B. Where local
regulations are at a variance with instructions, installer
should adhere to local codes.
MINIMUM INSTALLATION HEIGHT
The minimum installation height of the unit with a Free
Blow Plenum is 8 ft. 6 in. This provides enough
clearance for the plenum to be removed. See Figure 5.
The minimum installation height for ducted applications
is 8 ft. 4½ in. This provides enough clearance to install
the duct work. See Figure 6.
FIGURE 4
UNIT ON APPLIANCE CART
WARNING
Exercise extreme caution when pushing the
unit on the rollers. Handle and push from the
lower 1/3 of the unit. Insure that debris is not
on the floor where the unit is to be moved on
the rollers. Failure to do so could result in the
unit tipping over and causing bodily injury and/
or damage to the unit.

DUCT WORK
Any heat pump is more critical of proper operating
charge and an adequate duct system than a straight air
conditioning unit. All duct work must be properly sized
for the design airflow requirement of the equipment.
Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA) is an
excellent guide to proper sizing. All duct work or
portions thereof not in the conditioned space should be
properly insulated in order to both conserve energy and
prevent condensation or moisture damage. When duct
runs through unheated spaces, it should be insulated
with a minimum of one inch of insulation. Use
insulation with a vapor barrier on the outside of the
insulation. Flexible joints should be used to connect the
duct work to the equipment in order to keep the noise
transmission to a minimum.
The QT
EC
series heat pump has provision to attach a
supply air duct to the top of the unit. Duct connection
size is 12 inches x 20 inches. The duct work is field
supplied and must be attached in a manner to allow for
ease of removal when it becomes necessary to slide the
unit out from the wall for service. See Figure 7 for
suggested attachment method.
NOTE: Unit cabinet, supply air duct and free blow
plenum are approved for “0” clearance to
combustible material.
The QT
EC
series heat pumps are designed for use with
free return (non-ducted) and either free blow with the
use of QPB Plenum Box or a duct supply air system.
The QPB and QPBHW Plenum Box mounts on top of
the unit and has both vertically and horizontally
adjustable louvers on the front discharge grille.
For hot water coil option a QPBHWxx-F for free blow
or QPBHWxx-D for ducted airflow is used
When used with a ducted supply, a QCX Cabinet
Extension can be used to conceal the duct work above
the unit to the ceiling. This extends 20" above the unit
for a total height above the floor of 10'-7/8". The unit is
equipped with a variable speed indoor blower motor
which increases in speed with an increase in duct static
pressure. The unit will therefore deliver proper rated air
flow up to the maximum ESP shown in Table 9.
However, for quiet operation of the air system, the duct
static should be kept as low as practical, within the
guidelines of good duct design.
FILTERS
Two 1-inch throw away filters [(1) 16x16 and (1)
16x20] are supplied with each unit. The filters slide into
filter brackets. Refer to Figure 8.
The filters are serviced from the inside of the building
by opening the hinged door. This door is attached by
1/4 turn fasteners and one locking latch.
The internal filter brackets are adjustable to

FRESH AIR INTAKE
This unit is equipped with a fresh air damper assembly.
The damper blade is locked in the closed position when
the unit is shipped from the Factory. To allow the
damper to operate remove the two plastic locking pins,
one on each end of the blade. This will allow for
maximum fresh airflow. The damper blade will now
open when the indoor blower is operating. If less than
maximum fresh airflow is required, reinsert the plastic
pins to limit damper blade opening to desired level.
Two extra pins are provided (taped to the inside of the
assembly) which may be used to hold the blade in some
position other than minimum or maximum position.
This fresh air assembly is located in the rear of the unit
and to gain access to make these adjustments remove
the air filter service door.
All capacity, efficiency and cost of operation
information as required for Department of Energy
“Energyguide” Fact Sheets are based upon the fresh air
blank-off plate in place and is recommended for
maximum energy efficiency.
The blank-off plate is available upon request from the
factory and is installed in place of the fresh air damper
shipped with each unit.
For details on energy recovery ventilation see separate
section.
CONDENSATE DRAIN
There are two drain connections on the unit. The rear
drain is the primary drain, and is located on the right
lower rear panel of the unit. The optional side drain is
located on the bottom right side of the unit. The side
drain is shipped with a plug installed.
The side drain requires a water trap for proper drainage.
See Figure 9. The drain can be routed through the floor
or through the wall. If the drain is to be routed
through an unconditioned space, it must be protected
from freezing. The drain line must be able to be
removed from the unit if it is necessary to remove the
unit from the wall. When the side drain is used, the
plug must be removed and installed in the rear drain
outlet.
The rear drain can be used with wall thickness of up to
10 inches where a water trap can be installed between
the unit and the interior wall. See Figure 10. The trap
cannot extend beyond the edge of the unit or it will
interfere with the wall mounting bracket. The drain can
be routed through the floor or through the wall. If the
drain is routed through the wall, the drain line must be
positioned such that it will not interfere with the sleeve
flange or the grille. See Figure 11. If the drain is to be
routed through an unconditioned space, it must be
protected from freezing.
Optional rear drain kits, both standard and heated
versions, are available to facilitate easy installation, and
also removability of heat pump for service. The
standard version provides a connection that allows the
evaporator condensate to drain independently bypassing
the lower drain pan. Note that on models equipped with
a refrigerant subcooler in the lower drain pan may
experience a slight decrease in cooling performance and
efficiency.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
MOUNTING THE UNIT
When installing a QT
EC
unit near an interior wall on the
left side, a minimum of 8 inches is required; 12 inches is
preferred.
When installing a QT
EC
unit near an interior wall on the
right side, a minimum of 18 inches is required as
additional space is required to connect the side drain. If
the rear condensate drain kit QCDS48 is used the
minimum can be reduced to 8 inches.
This clearance is required to allow for the attachment of
the unit to the sleeve and side trim pieces to the wall.
This unit is to be secured to the wall sleeve with
mounting brackets provided. The unit itself, the supply
duct and the free blow plenum are suitable of “0”
clearance to combustible material.
Following are the steps for mounting the QT
EC
, for
reference see Figure 12 (page 13).
1. Attach mounting brackets to the wall sleeve with
screws provided.
2. Position the unit in front of the sleeve with the
condenser section toward the sleeve.
3. Remove the locking screws from the wheels.
Refer to Figure 13.
4. Roll the unit into the sleeve. Make sure to check
both sides of the unit as it is being rolled to keep
it centered in the sleeve. Also check the
alignment to the mounting brackets. This unit
must be level from side to side. If adjustments
are necessary, shim up under the rollers with
sheets of steel or any substance that is not
affected by moisture.
5. Make sure the gasket on the rear of the unit is
touching the sleeve across the top and down both
sides. This is a rain water seal.
6. Secure the mounting brackets to the unit with
screws provided, #10 hex head sheet metal
screws.
7. Bottom trim extensions are provided for use when
wall is less than 14 inches but greater than 10.5
inches. Secure to wall with screws (not
provided).
8. Attach the bottom trim piece to the unit with the
screws provided (dark colored).
9. Position side trim pieces to wall and attach with
field supplied screws. There are two long pieces
and two short pieces supplied. The long pieces
are to enclose the gap behind the unit. The short
pieces are to fill the gap behind the cabinet
extension or the free blow plenum box. The may
be cut to suit your ceiling height or overlap the
unit side trim. There is sufficient length to trip up
to a 10'2" ceiling.
NOTE: If the exterior wall thickness is between 5
inches to 10.5 inches, a side trim extension
piece kit, model QSTX42, is available.

WIRING – MAIN POWER
Refer to the unit rating plate and/or Table 2 for wire
sizing information and maximum fuse or “HACR Type”
circuit breaker size. Each unit is marked with a
“Minimum Circuit Ampacity”. This means that the
field wiring used must be sized to carry that amount of
current. Depending on the installed KW of electric
heat, there may be two field power circuits required. If
this is the case, the unit serial plate will so indicate. All
models are suitable only for connection with copper
wire. Each unit and/or wiring diagram will be marked
“Use Copper Conductors Only”. These instructions
MUST BE adhered to. Refer to the National Electrical
Code (NEC) for complete current carrying capacity data
on the various insulation grades of wiring material. All
wiring must conform to NEC and all local codes.
The electrical data lists fuse and wire sizes (75°C
copper) for all models, including the most commonly
used heater sizes. Also shown are the number of field
power circuits required for the various models with
heaters.
The unit rating plate lists a “Maximum Time Delay
Relay Fuse” or “HACR Type” circuit breaker that is to
be used with the equipment. The correct size must be
used for proper circuit protection, and also to assure that

LOW VOLTAGE CONNECTIONS
These units use a grounded 24 volt AC low voltage
circuit.
The “R” terminal is the hot terminal and the “C”
terminal is grounded.
“G” terminal or pins 6 and 1 of P2 are the fan inputs.
Both must be energized for proper fan operation. This
is done automatically in the factory installed climate
control options. If the climate control option is
abandoned and connections are made directly to P2 both
pins 6 and 1 of P2 must be energized for proper
operation.
“Y” terminal or pin 7 of P2 is the compressor input.
“B” terminal or pin 8 of P2 is the reversing valve input.
The reversing valve must be energized for heating
mode.
“R” terminal or pin 10 of P2 is 24 VAC hot.
“C” terminal or pin 11 of P2 is 24 VAC grounded.
“L” terminal or pin 12 of P2 is compressor lockout
output
. This terminal is activated on a high or low
pressure trip by the electronic heat pump control. This
is a 24 VAC output.
“W2” terminal or pin 9 of P2 is second stage heat (if
equipped). If the unit is equipped with an optional hot
water coil plenum box or electric heat these will be
energized by this terminal.
“O1” terminal of pin 5 of P2 is the ventilation input.

GENERAL
This unit is equipped with a variable speed ECM motor.
The motor is designed to maintain rated airflow up to
the maximum static allowed. It is important that the
blower motor plugs are not plugged in or unplugged
while the power is on. Failure to remove power prior
to unplugging or plugging in the motor could result in
motor failure.
CAUTION
Do not plug in or unplug blower motor
connectors while the power is on. Failure to do
so may result in motor failure.
NOTE: For total and proper control using DDC, a total
of 6 controlled outputs are required (5 if no
ventilation system is installed). For proper
system operation under Emergency Heat
conditions. Where the compressor needs to be
deactivated, the B-W2-E outputs need to be
energized. Removing the Y (compressor) signal
alone turns the compressor off, but does not
activate the additional circuitry embedded in
the heat pump for proper and complete
operation.
