Accessory Description and Usage (Listed Alphabetically) (Continued)
10. Sound Hood
Wraparound sound reducing cover for the compressor. Reduces
the sound level by about 2 dBA.
Usage Guideline:
Suggested when unit is installed closer than 15 ft (4.57 m) to
quiet areas, bedrooms, etc.
Suggested when unit is installed between two houses less
than 10 ft (3.05 m) apart.
11. Support Feet
Four stick--on plastic feet that raise the unit 4 in. (101.6 mm)
above the mounting pad. This allows sand, dirt, and other debris
to be flushed from the unit base, minimizing corrosion.
Usage Guideline:
Suggested in the following applications:
Coastal installations.
Windy areas or where debris is normally circulating.
Rooftop installations.
For improved sound ratings.
12. Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TXV)
A modulating flow --control valve which meters refrigerant liquid
flow rate into the evaporator in response to the superheat of the
refrigerant gas leaving the evaporator.
Kit includes valve, adapter tubes, and external equalizer tube.
Hard shut off types are available.
NOTE: When using a hard shut off TXV with single phase
reciprocating compressors, a Compressor Start Assist Capacitor
and Relay is required.
Usage Guideline:
Required to achieve ARI ratings in certain equipment
combinations. Refer to combination ratings.
Hard shut off TXV or LLS required in air conditioner
long line applications.
Required for use on all zoning systems.
13. Time--Delay Relay
An SPST delay relay which briefly continues operation of indoor
blower motor to provide additional cooling after the compressor
cycles off.
NOTE: Most indoor unit controls include this feature. For those
that do not, use the guideline below.
Usage Guideline:
For improved efficiency ratings for certain
combinations of indoor and outdoor units. Refer to
ARI Unitary Directory.
