WARNING
!
CORROSION HAZARD! To prevent shortening its service
life, the air handler should not be used during the finishing phases
of construction. The low return air temperatures can lead to the
formation of condensate. Condensate in the presence of chlorides
and fluorides from paint, varnish, stains, adhesives, cleaning com-
pounds, and cement creates a corrosive condition which may cause
rapid deterioration of the cabinet and internal components.
Important: Due to the unique design of this unit, which
allows the electrical wiring to be routed within the insula-
tion, do not screw, cut, or otherwise puncture the unit
cabinet in any location other than the ones illustrated in

6.3 Non Ducted Applications
Non-Ducted Return Installations:
•Installation in a closet, an alcove, or a utility
room without a return duct requires the use
of a plenum accessory kit as it uses the area
space as a return air plenum. Minimum clear-
ances to combustible materials and service
access must be observed (see outline draw-
ing).
•This area may also be used for other purpos-
es, including 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.
•Review local codes to determine limitations if
the unit is installed without a return air duct.

throughout the conditioned space and equipment damage can
result.
Ducted Return Installations:
•Installation in an attic, garage, or crawl space with
ducted supply and return air is appropriate. Minimum
clearances to combustible materials and service ac-
cess must be observed (see outline drawing).

6.5 Additional Unit Preparation Considerations
For proper installation the following items must be con-
sidered prior to moving the unit to its installation site:
•Pursuant to Florida Building Code 13-610.2.A.2.1, this
unit meets the criteria for a factory sealed air handler.
•If a side return is needed for your application, the side
return MUST be prepared prior to moving the air han-
dler to its installation location. See the Side Return Kit
# BAYSRKIT100A Installer Guide for detailed instruc-
tions.
• When the air handler is located adjacent to the living
area, the system should be carefully designed with re-
turns which minimize noise transmission through the
return air grill. Although the air handler is designed
with large blowers operating at moderate speeds, any
blower moving a high volume of air will produce audi-
ble noise which could be objectionable when the unit
is located very close to a living area. It is often advis-
able to route the return ducts under the floor through
the attic. Such design permits the installation of air
return remote from the living area (i.e central hall).
•Study the unit’s outline drawing and dimensions prior
to selecting the installation site. Note in advance
which electrical conduit entry points and condensate
drain holes are to be used, so that proper clearance
allowances can be made for installation and future
maintenance.
•Installation of the air handler must be made prior to,
or at the same time as, the installation of the outdoor
unit in order to allow access for refrigerant lines.
•Consider the overall space needed when external
accessories are used, additional height and width
requirements may exist.
•These units are not approved for outdoor installation.
•These units must be installed in the proper air flow
direction.
•Any third-party heater accessories or hydronic coils
must be downstream of the unit.
•Note: No atomizing style humidifier is allowed in the
return plenum with the use of this unit.
•Excessive bypass air may cause water blow-off,
which will adversely affect system operation and air
cleaner performance. To verify bypass airflow, fol-
low the Bypass Humidifier Pre-Installation Checkout
and Set-Up Procedures available through your local
distributor. Ask for publication number 18-CH37D1-*
Steam and Flow-through Fan Power Duct-mounted
Humidifiers. Follow the humidifier installation instruc-
tions. These should only be installed on the supply
air side of the system.
•Note: The air handlers have been evaluated in accor-
dance with the Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter
XX, Part 3280 or the equivalent. “SUITABLE FOR
MOBILE HOME USE.”
•Note: This unit is certified to UL 1995.
The interior cabinet wall meets the following:
- UL94-5VA Flame Class Listed
- UL723 Steiner Tunnel Listed for 25/50 Flame/
Smoke
- UL746C Listed for Exposure to Ultraviolet Light,
Water Exposure and Immersion

17
Section 7. Setting the Unit - Vertical Installation
7.2 Considerations
Provide a minimum height of 14 inches for proper
unrestricted airflow below the unit. Allow a minimum
of 21 inches clearance in front of the air handler to
permit maintenance and removal of filter.
•Position unit on suitable foundation. If a manu-
facturer approved accessory is not used, a frame
strong enough to support the total weight of the
unit, accessories, and duct work must be provided.
•Isolate unit from the foundation using a suitable
isolating material.

On units with sheet metal returns: Return plenum
must be flanged. Sheet metal drill point screws
must be 1/2” in length or shorter.
Important: Ensure EEV sensor and motor wiring
are taught and wire-tied to the distributor tube to
prevent damage during electric heat operation.

19
8.2 Considerations
STEP 1 - Support the unit from the bottom (near both
ends). The service access must remain unobstructed.
Important: The unit can only be supported from the
bottom unless using kit BAYHHKIT001A. Do not drill
or screw supports into any area of the cabinet.
Note: Do not allow the unit to be used as strain relief.
•Approved bottom support methods are rails, u-
channels (Unistrut®), or other load bearing materi-
als.
•The unit must be isolated carefully to prevent
sound transmission. Field supplied vibration isola-
tors are recommended.
STEP 2 - Install an auxiliary drain pan under the
horizontal air handler to prevent possible damage to
ceilings.
•Isolate the auxiliary drain pan from the unit and
from the structure.
•Connect the auxiliary drain pan to a separate drain
line and terminate according to local codes.
Important: Due to the unique design of this unit,
which allows the electrical wiring to be routed within
the insulation, do not screw, cut, or otherwise puncture
the unit cabinet in any location other than the ones
illustrated in this Installer Guide or in an approved ac-
cessory’s Installer Guide.
Important: Make certain that the unit has been in-
stalled in a level position to ensure proper draining.
Important: Under no conditions should metal strap-
ping be attached to the unit to be used as support
mechanisms for carrying or suspension purposes.

Section 9. Connecting the Duct work
9.1 Duct Connection Considerations
•The supply and return air ducts must be connected
to the unit with non flammable duct connectors.
•See the Outline drawing for sizes of the duct con-
nections.
•After the ducts are secured, seal around the sup-
ply and return ducts to prevent air leakage.
•Insulate all duct work that will be outside of condi-
tioned spaces.
•Convertible Duct Flange Kits are available to con-
nect the supply plenum or for mounting on the
discharge opening to provide a “flush fit” for 1-1/2”
duct board applications.
•If front or rear return is required, the air handler
must be elevated - placed on a pedestal or plenum
and duct must be connected to this pedestal or
plenum.
•If side return is required, the Side Return Kit #
BAYSRKIT100A accessory must be used. A re-
mote filter will be required.
•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
additional information.
Note: Side return is not approved without Side
Return Kit # BAYSRKIT100. More than one Side
Return Kit may be necessary depending on the
application. Refer to the Installation Guide in
BAYSRKIT100 for approved duct connections,
sizing, number, transitions, and accessory
application.
Note: Duct work must be supported as appropriate.
See National and local codes for guidelines. Do not
depend on the unit to support duct work.
Important: Due to the unique design of this unit,
which allows the electrical wiring to be routed within
the insulation, do not screw, cut, or otherwise punc-
ture the unit cabinet in any location other than the
ones illustrated in this Installer Guide or in an ap-
proved accessory’s Installer Guide.
Important: Under no conditions should metal strap-
ping be attached to the unit to be used as support
mechanisms for carrying or suspension purposes.
