imPOrtant nOte: Unit should be energized 24 hours prior to
compressor start up to ensure crankcase heater has sufcient-
ly warmed the compressors. Compressor damage may occur if
this step is not followed.

Proper installation of the unit ensures trouble-free operation.
Improper installation can result in problems ranging from
noisy operation to property or equipment damages, danger-
ous conditions that could result in injury or personal proper-
ty damage and that are not covered by the warranty. Give
this booklet to the user and explain it’s provisions. The user
should retain these instructions for future reference.
• For proper ame pattern within the heat exchanger and
proper condensate drainage, the unit must be mounted lev-
el.
• The ue outlet must be at least 12 inches from any opening
through which ue gases could enter a building, and at least
three feet above any forced air inlet located within ten feet.
The economizer/manual fresh air intake/motorized fresh air
intake and combustion air inlet mounted on the unit are not
affected by this restriction.
• To avoid possible corrosion of the heat exchanger, do not
locate the unit in an area where the outdoor air (i.e. com-
bustion air for the unit) will be frequently contaminated by
compounds containing chlorine or uorine. Common sourc-
es of such compounds include swimming pool chemicals
and chlorine bleaches, paint stripper, adhesives, paints,
varnishes, sealers, waxes (which are not yet dried) and
solvents used during construction and remodeling. Various
commercial and industrial processes may also be sources
of chlorine/uorine compounds.
