A. GENERAL INFORMATION
▲
WARNING
!
THIS INFORMATION IS FOR USE BY INDIVIDUALS
HAVING ADEQUATE BACKGROUNDS OF ELECTRICAL
AND MECHANICAL EXPERIENCE. ANY ATTEMPT TO
REPAIR A CENTRAL AIR CONDITIONING PRODUCT
MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROP-
ERTY DAMAGE. THE MANUFACTURER OR SELLER
CANNOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE INTERPRETA-
TION OF THIS INFORMATION, NOR CAN IT ASSUME
ANY LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH ITS USE.
▲
CAUTION
!
To prevent shortening its service life, the air handler
should not be used during the finishing phases of con-
struction. The low return air temperatures can lead to
the formation of condensate. Condensate in the pres-
ence of chlorides and fluorides from paint, varnish,
stains, adhesives, cleaning compounds, and cement
creates a corrosive condition which may cause rapid
deterioration of the cabinet and internal components.
These instructions do not cover all variations in sys-
tems or provide for every possible contingency. Should
further information be desired or particular problems
arise which are not covered sufficiently by this manual,
contact your local distributor or the manufacturer as
listed on the air handler nameplate.
These Air Handlers are shipped from the factory in the
upflow or horizontal right configuration and are fully
convertible to downflow or horizontal left. Refer to Sec-
tion C beginning on page 3 for additional information.
INSPECTION
Check carefully for any shipping damage. This must be
reported to and claims made against the transportation
company immediately. Check to be sure all major com-
ponents are in the unit. Any missing parts should be re-
ported to your supplier at once, and replaced with au-
thorized parts only.
CAUTION
!
Cardboard packing material must be removed from in-
side the blower assembly before starting the unit. Fail-
ure to do so may cause indoor blower motor failure.

INSTALLATION LIMITATIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS
The general location of the air handler is normally se-
lected by the architect, contractor and/or home owner
for the most effective application and satisfaction.
NOTE: Condensation may occur on the surface of the
air handler when installed in an unconditioned loca-
tion. When units are installed in unconditioned spaces,
verify that all electrical and refrigerant line penetrations
on the air handler are sealed completely.
These air handlers are suitable for installation in a
closet, alcove or utility room with free, non-ducted, air
return, using the area space as a return air plenum.
With ducted supply air, if the minimum clearances to
combustible materials and service access are observed,
the above installations are suitable.
This area may also be used for other purposes, includ-
ing an electric hot water heater - but in no case shall
a fossil fuel device be installed and/or operated in
the same closet, alcove or utility room.

CAUTION
!
For air handlers not equipped with a factory installed
electric heater, a field installed heater is available from
American Standard Inc. Only heaters built by American
Standard Inc. are approved for use in the air handler.
These heaters have been designed and tested in accor-
dance with UL standards to provide safe and reliable
operation. A list of approved heaters is provided on the
air handler rating nameplate. Heaters that are not fac-
tory approved could cause damage and are not cov-
ered under equipment warranty.
NOTE: If air handler is used WITHOUT a supplementary
electric heater, a sheetmetal plate is required to cover
the open hole in the airflow system (See Figure 2)
. In
addition, ensure that the cabinet is sealed air tight
where the field wires enter the unit.
8. If the unit is installed without a return air duct, ap-
plicable local codes may limit this air handler to in-
stallation only in a single story residence & within
conditioned space.
9. If the outdoor unit is to be installed later, or by oth-
ers, then installation of the air handler must be
made to allow access for refrigerant lines, or attach
refrigerant lines to air handler when installing.
In addition, these air handlers are suitable for installa-
tion in an attic, garage or crawl space with ducted sup-
ply and return air.
This equipment has been evaluated in accordance with
the Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter XX, Part 3280
or the equivalent. “SUITABLE FOR MOBILE HOME
USE”
For proper installation the following items must be con-
sidered:
1. If adequate power is available and correct according
to nameplate specifications.
2. Insulate all ducts, particularly if unit is located out-
side of the conditioned space.
3. Pursuant to Florida Building Code 13-610.2.A.2.1,
this unit meets the criteria for a factory sealed
air handler.
4. To ensure maximum efficiency and system perfor-
mance, the existing supply and return duct system
static pressures must not exceed the total available
static pressure of the air handler. Reference ACCA
Manual D, Manual S and Manual RS along with the
air handler Product Data and Service Facts for addi-
tional information.
5. It is recommended that the outline drawing be stud-
ied and dimensions properly noted and checked
against selected installation site. By noting in ad-
vance which knockouts are to be used, proper clear-
ance allowances can be made for installation and
possible future service.
6. When the air handler with supplementary heater is
to be installed in the downflow position on combus-
tible flooring an accessory sub-base (TAYBASE100
for 2/4TEE3F39-64) must be used. See Figure 1.
7. If supplementary heat is to be added, power supply
must be sufficient to carry the load. In addition,
minimum air flow settings, unit and duct clearances
to combustible material must be maintained as
stated on the air handler rating nameplate.

NOTE: If the convertible duct flanges are not used, they
must be removed and discarded for proper airflow.
E. REFRIGERANT PIPING
IMPORTANT:
Refrigerant piping must be routed to maintain service
access to blower compartment and provide easy re-
moval of filter access panel and filter.
NOTE: Penetration around the Refrigerant lines must
be sealed and Electrical inlets need to be sealed at
both the low and the high voltage.
1. Refrigerant connections are made outside the cabi-
net.
2. Installation of refrigerant lines is covered in the in-
stallation instructions packaged with the outdoor
unit. Evacuation, leak testing and brazing proce-
dures are included in those instructions. Read those
instructions before starting installation of refriger-
ant lines.
NOTE: TXV Equipped is Non-Bleed, and may require a
start kit on the outdoor unit.

F. BRAZING TO EVAPORATOR SECTION
NOTE: A brazing shield is provided in the information
pack accompanying this unit. This shield fits over the
refrigerant fittings while brazing. Wet the shield before
brazing. See Figure 16.
IMPORTANT:
Do NOT unseal refrigerant tubing until ready to cut and
fit refrigerant lines.
1. Remove both sealing caps from indoor coil.
2. Field supplied tubing should be cut squared-off, en-
suring the tube is still round and free of burrs at
the connecting end. Clean the tubing to prevent
contaminants from entering the system.
3. Run refrigerant tubing into the stub sockets of in-
door unit coil. Refrigerant line openings must be
completely sealed.
4. Braze and evacuate according to indoor and outdoor
installation instructions.
5. Seal around refrigerant lines.
PAINTED AREAS OF UNIT MUST BE SHIELDED
DURING BRAZING
G. CONDENSATE DRAIN PIPING
NOTE: Make certain that the unit has been installed in a
level position to ensure proper draining.
The indoor blower is downstream of the evaporator coil
which creates a negative pressure at the condensate
drain connections during operation. The condensate
drain connections in front of the indoor coil are 3/4"
NPT. The lower connection is the primary drain. See
Figure 17.
Two secondary drain connections are provided for the
different orientations (See Figure 17). The lower of the
two should be connected as a backup to prevent conden-
sate overflow by a blocked primary drain.
