CIRCULATING AIR AND FILTERS
DUCTWORK
The supply duct from the unit through a wall may be installed
without clearance. However, minimum unit clearances must
be maintained (see “Clearances” section). The supply duct
should be provided with an access panel large enough to
inspect the air chamber downstream of the heat exchanger.
A cover should be tightly attached to prevent air leaks.
Ductwork dimensions are shown in the roof curb installation
manual.
If desired, supply and return duct connections to the unit may
be made with flexible connections to reduce possible unit
operating sound transmission.
VENTING
NOTE: Venting is self-contained.
CONDENSATE DRAIN CONNECTION
CONDENSATE DRAIN CONNECTION
A 3/4” NPT drain connection is supplied for condensate pip-
ing. An external trap must be installed for proper condensate
drainage.

Drain Connection
Install condensate drain trap as shown. Use 3/4" drain line
and fittings or larger. Do not operate without trap.
HORIZONTAL DRAIN
Drainage of condensate directly onto the roof may be ac-
ceptable; refer to local code. It is recommended that a small
drip pad of either stone, mortar, wood or metal be provided to
prevent any possible damage to the roof.
CLEANING
Due to the fact that drain pans in any air conditioning unit
will have some moisture in them, algae and fungus will
grow due to airborne bacteria and spores. Periodic clean-
ing is necessary to prevent this build-up from plugging the
drain.

WARNING
HEATING STARTUP
On new installations, or if a major component has been re-
placed, the operation of the unit must be checked.
Check unit operation as outlined in the following instructions.
If any sparking, odors, or unusual sounds are encountered,
shut off electrical power and recheck for wiring errors, or ob-
structions in or near the blower motors. Duct covers must
be removed before operating unit.
The Startup, Adjustments, and Checks procedure provides a
step-by-step sequence which, if followed, will assure the
proper startup of the equipment in the minimum amount of
time. Air balancing of duct system is not considered part of
this procedure. However, it is an important phase of any air
conditioning system startup and should be performed upon
completion of the Startup, Adjustments, and Checks proce-
dure. The Startup, Adjustments, and Checks procedure at
outside ambients below 55°F should be limited to a readi-
ness check of the refrigeration system with the required final
check and calibration left to be completed when the outside
ambient rises above 55°F.
