3. Applications
3.1 Vertical up-flow and Horizontal right-flow
Vertical up-flow and horizontal right-flow configurations are the factory settings on all models.
If return air is to be ducted, install duct flush with floor. Use fireproof resilient gasket 1/8’’ to 1/4’’ thick
between the ducts, unit and floor. Set unit on floor over opening.
IMPORTANT
Lightly tighten the drain connections so they do not leak.
Using excessive force may cause damage to the drain connections. Torque applied to drain
connections should not exceed 10.ft.lbs.

3.1.1 Installation of drainpipe
1.When the air handler is installed vertically, please block the upper drainage hole with a cover. The
lower right of the drainage hole is connected with the drainage pipe, and the lower left of the drainage
hole is connected with the overflow pipe that should be exposed to the air; lf the pipe ① is draining,
which means the pipe ② is blocked. Contact maintenance personnel as soon as possible.

2. When installing the air handler lying down, the upper drainage hole is covered the lower left of the
drainage hole is connected with the drainage pipe, the lower right of the drainage hole is connected
with the overflow pipe that should be exposed to the air. lf the pipe ① is draining, which means the
pipe ② is blocked. Contact maintenance personnel as soon as possible.

Keep the coil connections sealed until refrigerant connections are made. Refer to condensing unit
installation instructions for details on pipe size and insulation.
Coil is shipped with nitrogen. Evacuate the system before charging with refrigerant.
Make sure the refrigerant pipes layout do not block service access.
Purge the refrigerant pipes and indoor coil with dry nitrogen while brazing.
Use a wet rag or an approved heat paste to protect the TXV sensing bulb during the brazing
process.
Condensate Drain Connection
Use a thin layer of Teflon paste, silicone or Teflon tape when making drain fitting connections.
Do not over tighten fittings resulting in splitting pipe connections on the drain pan.
Figure 7-1 Condensate drain trap
Make sure the drain pipes layout do not block service access. Minimum clearance of 25’’ is required
for filter, coil or blower removal and service access.
Ensure the unit is level or pitched slightly toward primary drain connection so that water will drain
smoothly from the pan. All horizontal drain pipes must be pitched downward away from the unit a
minimum of 1/8” per foot of line to ensure proper drainage.
Do not reduce drain pipe size less than connection size provided on condensate drain pan.
Do not connect condensate drain pipe to a closed or open sewer pipe.
The drain pipe should be insulated where necessary to prevent sweating and damage due to
condensate forming on the outside surface of the line.
Make provisions for disconnecting and cleaning of the primary drain pipe if it become necessary.
Install a 3 inch trap in the primary drain pipe as close as possible to the unit. Make sure that the top
of the trap is below connection to the drain pan to allow complete drainage of pan.
Auxiliary drain pipe should be connected to a place where it will be noticeable. Homeowner should
be warned that a problem exists if water begins running from the auxiliary drain pipe.
Test condensate drain pan and drain pipe after installation is complete. Pour enough water into
drain pan, make sure that the drain pan is draining completely, no leaks are found in drain pipe
fittings, and no water is draining from the termination of the primary drain pipe.

3.Horizontal left-flow
Horizontal left-flow is another default factory configuration for the units. These units may be
converted to horizontal left-flow by removing indoor coil assembly with drain pan and reinstalling it
as shown below.
Rotate the unit 90° into the horizontal left position, with the coil compartment on the right and the
blower compartment on the left.
Reinstall the indoor coil 180° from original position. Ensure the retaining channel is fully engaged
with the coil rail(Figure 3-4 and 3-5).
Aftermarket drain pan kits are required when the unit is configured for the horizontal position over
a finished ceiling and living space.

CAUTION
Horizontal units must be configured for right hand air supply or left hand air supply.
Horizontal drain pan must be located under indoor coil. Failure to use the drain pan can result in
property damage.
3.Installation in an unconditioned space
There are two pairs of coil rails in the air handler for default and counter flow application. If the air
handler is installed in an unconditioned space, the two unused coil rails should be removed to minimize
air handler surface sweating. The coil rails can be easily removed by taking off the 6 mounting screws
from both sides of the cabinet.
4. Electrical Wiring
Field wiring must comply with the National Electric Code (C.E.C. in Canada) and any applicable local
ordinance.
WARNING
Disconnect all power to unit before installing or servicing. More than one disconnect switch may be
required to de-energize the equipment. Hazardous voltage can cause severe personal injury or death.

13
4.1 Power Wiring
It is important that proper electrical power is available for connection to the unit model being installed.
Refer to the unit nameplate, wiring diagram and electrical data in the installation instructions.
If required, install a branch circuit disconnect of adequate size, located within sight of, and readily
accessible to the unit.
When the electric heat is installed, units may be equipped with one or two 30~60 amp circuit
breakers. These breakers protect the internal wiring in the event of a short circuit and serve as a
disconnect. Circuit breakers installed within the unit do not provide over-current protection of the
supply wiring and therefore may be sized larger than the branch circuit protection.
Supply circuit power wiring must be 167 ℉ minimum copper conductors only. Refer to electrical data
in this section for ampacity, wire size and circuit protector requirements. Supply circuit protective
devices may be either fuses or “HACR” type circuit breakers.
Figure 4-1 Wiring diagram

14
4.2 Control Wiring
Class 2 low voltage control wiring should not be run in conduit with main power wiring and must be
separated from power wiring, unless class 1 wire of proper voltage rating is used.
Low voltage control wiring should be color-coded 18 AWG. For lengths longer than 100 ft, 16 AWG
wire shall be used.
Refer to wiring diagrams attached to indoor and outdoor sections to be connected.
Make sure separation of control wiring and power wiring has been maintained.

4. Some thermostats may use W2/AUX for heat pump.
5. The electrical heater may be not avaliable for some model (need to be checked later).
6. For single stage thermostat with Y/Y1 terminal only, place both Y1 and Y2 wire together to Y/Y1
terminal.
4.3 Grounding
WARNING
The unit must be grounded.
Failure to do so can result in electrical shock causing personal injury or death.
Grounding may be accomplished by grounding metal conduit when installed in accordance with
electrical codes to the unit cabinet. Grounding may also be accomplished by attaching ground
wire(s) to ground lug(s) provided in the unit wiring compartment.
Use of multiple supply circuits require grounding of each circuit to lug(s) provided in the unit.

Safety Cautions All electric work must be performed by qualified personnel.
BAYHTR16** series is designed and approved to be installed in the AMERISTAR or RUNTRU series
air handlers.
Warning
Disconnect all external power supplies before performing installation and servicing. Turn off
accessory heater power switch if applicable. Failure to do so may cause serious injury.
BAYHTR16** series must be properly grounded and use copper supply wires.
Make sure to follow national electric code and local regulations.
When installing it in an enclosed area such as a garage, heater elements should have a minimum
clearance of 18’’ from the floor to insure the proper ventilation.
Check the BAYHTR16** series label to confirm BAYHTR16** series size based on room load under
lowest ambient temperature.
Inspect all heating elements and whether heater element wires.Contact local distributor immediately
if there is any occurred damage.
