which may become toxic when exposed to heat (i.e.
refrigerants, aerosols, etc.).
1.1 Description of Operation
This air handler is a direct, gas-fired, fresh-air piece
of equipment. It is designed for indoor or outdoor
installation with fresh outdoor air delivered to the
burner. Air handlers are designed to operate in
temperatures as lowas -30° F (-34° C). The air
handler is factory-tested to fire with natural gas or
LPG (check the air handler's rating plate for
information on the appropriate gas). The burner
flame will modulate to maintain the selected
discharge air temperature or room air temperature,
depending on the selected controls. See Page 52,
Section 17.2. For maximum temperature rise, See
Page 69,Table 19.
The air handler may be provided with several
different controls and options to meet various
application requirements. Be sure to read this entire
manual before installation and start-up.
1.2 Inspection and Setup
The air handler is shipped fully assembled. The air
handler was inspected and operated prior to

handler, check the fuel and electrical characteristics
of the air handler and verify that they match the fuel
and electrical supply available. Verify that the
specifications on the air handler rating plate match
the order. Check the air handler for any damage that
may have occurred during shipment. If any damage
is found, file a claim with the transporting agency. Do
not refuse shipment. Check the installation location
to ensure proper clearances to combustibles. See
Page 5, Section 3.1.
Any small options which do not come attached to the
air handler (i.e. remote panel) will be found inside the
air handler.
Larger accessories (i.e. legs, stand, filter section,
inlet hood) may either ship with the air handler or
separately. Check the bill of lading for information.
If the air handler must be temporarily stored (i.e. job
site is not ready for installation of the air handler), the
air handler should be set on 4" x 4" (10 cm x 10 cm)
pieces of timber on the ground in a protected area.
Cover the air handler to protect it from the

SECTION 3: CRITICAL CONSIDERATIONS
5
SECTION 3: CRITICAL CONSIDERATIONS 3.1 Required Clearances to Combustibles
Clearances are the required distances that
combustible objects must be away from the air
handler to prevent fire hazards. Combustibles are
materials that may catch on fire and include common
items such as wood, paper, rubber, fabric, etc.
Maintain clearances to combustibles at all times
for safety.
Check the clearances on each air handler being
installed to make sure the product is suitable for your
application and the clearances are maintained.
Clearances to combustibles are 12" (30.5 cm) on the
control enclosure side and 6" (15.2 cm) on all other
surfaces. Read and followthe safety guidelines
below:
• Locate the air handler so that the air intakes are
not too close to any exhaust fan outlets, gasoline
storage, propane tanks or other contaminants that
could potentially cause dangerous situations.
• Keep gasoline or other combustible materials
including flammable objects, liquids, dust or
vapors away from this air handler or any other
piece of
equipment .
• Maintain clearances from heat sensitive material,
equipment and workstations.
Clearances to combustibles do not denote
clearances for accessibility. Minimum clearance for
access is 48" (122 cm). Minimum clearance for
accessibility applies to the control enclosure, blower
access panel and filter access panel (when
equipped).
The stated clearances to combustibles represent a
surface temperature of 90° F (50° C) above room
temperature (90° F [50° C] plus ambient
temperature). Building materials with a lowheat
tolerance (i.e. plastics, vinyl siding, canvas, tri-ply,
etc.) may be subject to degradation at lower
temperatures. It is the installer’s/owner’s
responsibility to assure that adjacent materials are
protected from degradation.
•Maintain clearances from vehicles parked belowthe
air handler. See Page 7, Section 4.4.
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Keep all flammable objects, liquids and
vapors the minimum required clearances to
combustibles away from equipment.
Some objects will catch fire or explode when
placed close to equipment.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in death, injury or property damage.
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Fresh air supply duct and burner housing
must be purged with fresh air four times
before every ignition.

SECTION 6: LIFTING AN AIR HANDLER
The air handler must be installed in compliance with
all applicable codes. The qualified installer or service
technician must use best building practices when
installing the air handler and any optional equipment.
This piece of equipment requires at least 4 CFM (6.8
m3/h) of outside air per 1,000 Btu/h (0.293 kW). Any
air handler that recirculates air from the heated
space must use the return air opening to prevent any
return air from passing over the burner.
Before installation, check that the local distribution
condition, nature of gas and gas pressure, and the
current state of adjustment of the equipment are
compatible. If filters are not installed (via inlet hood or
filter section), an air strainer (provided by others)
must be installed on the inlet of the air handler with
openings less than or equal to 5/8" (16 mm) in
diameter. Air inlets must be installed in such a
manner that their lowest edge is 19" (500 mm) above
any surface. This applies to roof curbs, upright
stands and suspended air handlers.
6.1 Liftingan Air Handler
6.1.1 Preparingto Lift the Air Handler
Prior to lifting the air handler, the following steps must
be performed:
1. R e m o ve all packaging or banding that attached
the air handler to the skid and ensure that the
air handler is no longer bound to the skid.
2. Remove all of the accessories or packages that
were shipped on the same skid, inside the air
handler or inside the control enclosure.
3. Inspect the air handler to:
• Verify that there is no damage as a result of
shipping.
•Ensure that it is appropriately rated for the
utilities available at the installation site.
• Verify that the lifting lugs are intact
undamaged and secured to the air handler.
•Ensure factory-installed hardware is
torqued as specified.
4. Prepare the installation location to be ready to
accept the air handler (i.e. roof curb, mounting
stand or legs).
5. Verify the lifting equipment can handle the air
handlers weight and the required reach. See
Page 9,Table 3.
6.1.2 Liftinga Horizontal Air Handler (All Models)
Lift the air handler into place installing appropriate
hardware (supplied by others) into all lifting lug holes
on the unit base. For model 2005, lifting lug holes are
1.5" (3.81 cm) diameter. For models 2010 - 2030,
lifting lug holes are 2.0" (5.1 cm) diameter. Use
spreader bars to ensure that the lifting cables clear
the sides of the air handler. The air handler must be
kept level during the lift to prevent tipping, twisting or
falling. If lifted improperly, product damage may
occur.
Next, refer to the applicable portions of Section 7,
See Page 14 and Page 15 for specific mounting
instructions. For mounting of accessories, refer to the
applicable portions of Page 22, Section 10.1 through
Page 37, Fi g u r e 18 .

6.1.3 Liftingan Upright Air Handler
All air handlers are shipped in the horizontal position.
Prior to lifting an upright air handler, the following
steps must be performed (See Page 13, Figure 4):
Step 1: The air handler must be lifted using the two
lifting lugs on the top of the discharge end and the
two lifting lugs on the inlet end, using a spreader bar
across the long axis. Lift the air handler off the skid
and place it on a flat, clean, dry surface.
Step 2: Remove the lifting lugs on the inlet end of the
air handler and re-install hardware.
Step 3: Use all four lifting lugs on the discharge end
of the air handler to enable the air handler to be lifted
into the upright position.
Step 4: Lift the air handler into upright position.
Step 5: Next, refer to the applicable portions of Page
18, Section 9 for specific mounting instructions.

SECTION 7: ROOF
Roof curbs are shipped unassembled and require field assembly.
NOTE: Before installation, verify that youhave the correct roof curb and that all required components are
present. If any are missing, contact your RAPID®independent distributor.
7.1 Roof Curb Assembly and Installation
Assemble roof curb according to the assembly drawing, on Page 15, Figure 5. Supplied hardware must be
torqued to recommended specifications on Page 6,Table 1.
Place the curb on the roof in the position in which it will be installed. Check that the diagonal measurements
