WARNING:PERSONAL INJURY/ENVIRONMENTALHAZARD
Any attempt to repair a central air conditioning product may
result in property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
These units use R-410A refrigerant which operates at
50 to 70% higher pressures than R-22. Use only R-410A
approved service equipment. Refrigerant cylinders are
painted a “Rose” color to indicate the type of refrigerant
and may contain a “dip” tube to allow for charging of liquid
refrigerant into the system. All R-410A systems with variable
speed compressors use a POE oil (VG74 or equivalent )
that readily absorbs moisture from the atmosphere. To
limit this ‘hygroscopic“ action, the system should remain
sealed whenever possible. If a system has been open to
the atmosphere for more than 4 hours, the compressor oil
must be replaced. Never break a vacuum with air and always
change the driers when opening the system for component
replacement.
CAUTION:HOTSURFACE
Do not touch top of compressor. May cause minor to
severe burning. Failure to follow this Caution could result in
property damage or personal injury.
CAUTION:HIGHPRESSURE
Failure to follow proper procedures can result in personal
illness or injury or severe equipment damage.System
contains oil and refrigerant under high pressure. Recover
refrigerant to relieve pressure before opening system.
WARNING:GROUNDING REQUIRED
Failure to inspect or use proper service tools may result
in equipment damage or personal injury. Reconnect all
grounding devices. All parts of this product that are capable
of conducting electrical current are grounded. If grounding
wires, screws, straps, clips, nuts, or washers used to
complete a path to ground are removed for service, they
must be returned to their original position and properly
fastened.
CAUTION:BURNHAZARD
Failure to follow this warning will result in abrupt release
of system charge and may result in personal injury and/
or property damage. Extreme caution should be exercised
when applying gauges to service ports.
WARNING:ELECTRICALSHOCK
Failure to follow this warning could result in property
damage, severe personal injury, or death.
Grounding is essential before connecting electrical supply.
WARNING:
This product can expose you to chemicals including Lead
and Lead components, which are known to the State
of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. For more information go to www.

4 Installation
4.1 Pre-Installation
Before installation, carefully check the following:
1. Unit should be installed in accordance with national and local safety
codes, including but not limited to ANSI/NFPS No. 70, local plumbing and
wastewater codes and any other applicable codes.
2. For rooftop installation, be sure the structure has enough strength to
support the weight of unit. Unit must be installed on a field supplied roof
curb or rack and leveled.
3. For ground level installation, a field supplied level slab must be used.
4. Condenser airflow should not be restricted.
5. On applications when a roof curb is used, the unit must be positioned on
the curb so the front of the unit is tight against the curb. If the unit is to
be mounted on a curb in a downflow application, refer to Figure 13, and
convert panels prior to rigging and lifting. The panel removal process may
require the unit to be on the ground.
4.2 Rigging And Lifting
Figure 5
Unit Height
Minimum Height 36"
Exercise care when moving the unit. Do not remove any packaging until the unit is
near the place of installation. Rig the unit by attaching chain or cable slings to the
lifting holes provided in the base rails. Spreader bars, whose length exceeds the
largest dimension across the unit, MUST be used across the top of the unit.
When rigging/lifting the unit, the minimum height between the top of the rigging
cables' connection point and top of unit should be 36 in. Refer to Figure 5.
CAUTION:
Before lifting, make sure the unit weight is distributed
equally on the rigging cables so it will lift evenly.
CAUTION:
All panels must be secured in place when the unit is lifted.
The condenser coils should be protected from rigging
cable damage with plywood or other suitable material.
4.3 Location Restrictions
Ensure the top discharge area is unrestricted for at least 60 inches above the unit.
Do not locate outdoor unit near bedrooms since normal operational noise levels
may be disturbing to building occupants.
Position unit to allow adequate space for unobstructed airflow, wiring, and
serviceability.
Do not restrict outdoor airflow. An air restriction at either the outdoor air inlet or
the fan discharge may be detrimental to compressor life.
Do not place the unit where water, ice, or snow from an overhang or roof will
damage or flood the unit. Do not install the unit on carpeting or other combustible
materials. Slab-mounted units should be at least 2 in. (51 mm) above the highest
expected water and runoff levels. Do not use unit if it has been under water.
Maintain a distance of 24 inches between units. Position unit so water, snow, or ice
from roof or overhang cannot fall directly on unit.
See Fig. 7 and Fig. 8 for minimum clearance requirements.
Cold climate considerations (heat pump only)
NOTICE:
Precautions must be taken for units being installed in areas
where snow accumulation and prolonged below-freezing
temperatures occur.
