Carrier 42 SERIES Air Conditioner User Manual


 
CONTROL SELECTION GUIDE
Use this guide to make sure that all necessary components are provided for and that the components are compatible
with the required control system.
NOTE: When thermostatic fan control is selected or when unit outside air dampers are used, unit-mounted thermostats
are not recommended as their use will result in poor room temperature sensing.
